Nick Felino, a 38-year-old forward, joined his younger brother Marcus on the Minnesota

Wild roster after a trade from the Chicago.

Black Hawks on March 6th, the move for future considerations lest the siblings play together

for the first time in their NHL careers.

Marcus, 34 and an alternate captain since 2021, has been out with a lower body injuries

since March 1st.

Nick made his wild debut on March 10th, with Marcus cheering from the press box.

The brothers, who faced each other 29 times in regular season games, are soaking in the

change.

Marcus even joked about his three wins over Nick's Black Hawks this season.

Both say the reunion feels special after years in the league.

Nick calls it gratifying at their age, while Marcus loves seeing his brother in a wild

jersey instead of opposing one.

They hope to share a line once Marcus returns.

The brothers are rallying fans through the Felino face-off, a season-long fundraiser

with the NHL, Players Association, Wilde, and V Foundation for Cancer Research.

It honors their mom, Johnis, lost to breast cancer in 2009.

Team Marcus leads with $86,441 raised.

Team Nick at $50,064, totaling $1,137,105 toward a $200,000 goal.

Two final games against the Black Hawks on Tuesday and Thursday could push them over as

they chase a Stanley Cup dream together.
