Long-time NHL forward Matt Cullen's son just announced his commitment to playing hockey for the University of Minnesota. Wyatt is one of three Cullen brothers, all who play hockey.

Wyatt, 16, recorded six goals, 25 assists and 31 points in 55 games for the U.S. National Development Program U17 team during the 2024-25 season.

His older brother Brooks was playing for Moorhead High School where he recorded 23 goals and 48 points in 29 games. He announced his commitment to Michigan State in November but might be de-committing soon.

The commitment photo on Instagram for Wyatt spelled out "W.Cullen" on the back of a Gophers jersey instead of just the last name. This is what you do if there are two players with the same last name on the team. We will see what happens.

Matt played 21 seasons in the NHL with eight different teams. He spent six years with the Anaheim Ducks to start his career. The second most games he played with one team was with the Minnesota Wild.

Cullen spent four seasons with the Wild on two different stops. He recorded 44 goals, 79 assists and 123 points in 272 games with Minnesota. In his NHL career, Cullen recorded 266 goals, 465 assists and 731 points in 1,516 games. He won three Stanley Cups and is in the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame.
