DENVER - Jacques Lemaire was noncommittal Saturday night when asked whether he'll return next season as the Wild's coach.

"We'll think about that," Lemaire said after the Wild's season ended with a 2-1 loss to Colorado. "We have a few months to think about that. We'll sit down and talk about the team, and talk to the GM, and think about the whole team and the future. That, we'll know in a few months."

Lemaire signed a multiyear extension last season.
