2003 -- The Wild, in their first ever playoff appearance, make it all the way to the Western Conference Finals before being swept 4-0 by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. Previously, the Wild had beaten the heavily favored and third seeded Colorado Avalanche in the first round in seven games, coming down from a 3-1 series deficit and winning both Game 6 and 7 in overtime. Andrew Brunette scored the series clincher. In the Western Conference Semi-finals, the Wild beat the fourth seeded Vancouver Canucks, again in seven games, and again after being down 3-1 in the series. In the process, the Wild became the first team in playoff history to capture a seven game series twice after facing elimination during Game 5.

Magnus Johansson (born September 4, 1973, in Linköping, Sweden), is a professional Swedish ice hockey player. He is currently a defenceman and captain for Linköpings HC in the highest Swedish league, Elitserien.

Playing career edit

Johansson started his senior playing career in his hometown team Linköpings HC in 1990. The club was then playing in Division 1 Södra, at the time one of Sweden's 2nd tier leagues, and Johansson who was appointed captain at an age of 18[1] would spend his first seven seasons there. In the 1996-97 season Linköpings HC was coached by Tommy Boustedt, and when his contract ended and he signed with the Elitserien team Västra Frölunda HC, he brought Johansson with him. Despite his relatively small stature Johansson adapted well to professional hockey, and over the following six seasons he developed into one of the league's most productive defencemen.[2] After winning the Swedish Championship with Västra Frölunda in 2003, Johansson signed a one-year contract with SCL Tigers of the Swiss Nationalliga A.

In March 2004 Linköpings HC, now in Elitserien, announced that Johansson had signed a 4-year contract and would make his, by the fans, long awaited return to the club.[3] Once again wearing the captain's C, he has led his team to results never accomplished before in club history in the last two seasons; a second spot in the league in 2004-05 and to the playoff semifinals in 2006.
