Its good for a hell of a lot more than that! Consider the MN Twins, the MN Wild, and the MN Timberwolves.

Which team has spent over 100 million dollars on franchise "talent?"

Now...

Which team is 6-0 in elimination games?
Which team won their division the very year their owner announced they would be eliminated through contraction?
Which team has gotten their ass BOUNCED in the first round of the playoffs for the last 7 straight years?

I argue that the Wild (especially in their win over Colorado) are setting an example for the rest of sports that it takes a lot more than money to win.
