The Wild erased a 3-1 deficit vs Vegas, only to see their undefeated game 7 history come to a screeching halt. This time around however, there is more than enough hope for the future, not leaving us feeling as empty as past playoff defeats.

Big Comeback Ends In A Thud

Things were hopeful when the Wild survived a buzz saw in game 1, but ever since it's been disappointment after disappointment. As frustrated as we might be with the officiating, there's no denying who the better team has been most of the way.

Nine Unanswered Goals...

The Stanley Cup Playoffs are here, as our Minnesota Wild face-off against the Vegas Golden Knights in the postseason for the first time in history! The whole season, every game against Vegas felt like a playoff game, so this should be even better!

Playoffs Preview 2021

The Minnesota Wild went 3-0 the past six days, taking care of business vs San Jose and Arizona. Kahkonen was very solid in his return between the pipes, now the hope is he will continue to see fairly regular action going forward. Parise continues his very strong play in his reduced role.

Gearing Up For The Final Stretch

Yes, Kahkonen got shelled by St. Louis, but under using him isn't going to build anything positive, including OVER-using Talbot, history proves this. Minnesota continues it's dominance over a tail-spinning Arizona club, can they once again?

Don't Underuse Kahkonen

The Minnesota Wild's power play has taken a grand turn for the better, and it showed this past wee, despite some strange line ups. The Minnesota Wild continue to be a step ahead of Vegas, as that rivalry is growing. Kevin Fiala has been outstanding on the power play, as he got a hat trick in a dominant 8-3 victory over the red hot Colorado Avalanche!

Power Play Surges!

This week, Joey is joined by Derek Felska of @creasandassist! We talk many topics regarding the Wild, including the elephant in the room, Puck Possession and Face offs.

Puck Possession Or Lack There Of

The Minnesota Wild were demolished in Colorado, losing a combined 11-1 in two games, where it felt like the Wild never had the puck. Thankfully, Minnesota was able to squeeze out two wins back home vs Anaheim, despite them not being pretty games.

Trying To Rekindle The Magic

The Minnesota Wild swept the three game series vs the Arizona Coyotes, and did so in impressive fashion. Despite not looking so great in the early minutes of the first game, Kirill Kaprizov just took over, and set the tone for the rest of the series. Cam Talbot and Kaapo Kahkonen were downright fantastic, each getting a shutout, and giving up one total goal in three games! Join Vig It!

Arizona Sweep!

Kaapo Kahkonen continues to show that he's not only an NHL goalie, but someone who deserves strong consideration to be a number one net minder. The Wild played fantastic hockey, beating the Vegas Golden Knights twice, in what looked like two epic playoff games. If only this club had even a decent middle of the road power play, they might be cup contenders.

Kahkonen Is Legit

Kirill Kaprizov continues to shine and dazzle, Marcus Foligno also had a great week. Unfortunately, some of the old country club nonsense reared it's ugly head late in Vegas on Monday night, leading to Zach Parise getting scratched for Wednesday's game. facebook.com/bravethewild facebook.com/mnwplayers @bravethewild: #BTWMN @mnwprospects gonepuckwild.com paladinolive@yahoo.com

Golden Rollar Coaster

When you put the right lines together, amazing things can happen. Dean Evason putting Kaprizov, Rask and Zuccarello together, along with Ryan Hartman centering the third line, has made for some very effective and entertaining hockey! facebook.com/bravethewild.minnesota facebook.com/mwnprospects @bravethewild @mnwprospects paladinolive@yahoo.com

The Right Chemistry!

The Minnesota Wild are back, but are a shell of themselves at the moment, not that they weren't already thin at a certain spot to begin with... Luckily there are a number of prospects shining in the College world and overseas. facebook.com/bravethewild.minnesota facebook.com/mnwprospects @bravethewild @mnwprospects paladinolive@yahoo.com

Shell Of Ourselves

The Minnesota Wild games are still postponed with Covid-19 protocols, so we have more time to talk about the prospects in the system, especially the Iowa Wild now. Mikki Koivu announced his retirement this week, we talk about that, and get to your other questions at #BTWMN on twitter! facebook.com/bravethewild.minnesota facebook.com/mnwprospects @bravethewild: #BTWMN @mnwprospects

Keeping Up With Prospects

After an up and down week which involved a suspension for Kevin Fiala, injuries to Matt Dumba, Jared Spurgeon and Marcus Johansson, covid 19 has officially struck the Wild. The Wild's next four games have been postponed, so we will have a slightly different show this week and next, but there certainly isn't a shortage of things to talk about. facebook.com/bravethewild.minnesota facebook.com/mnwprospects @bravethewild: #btwmn @mnwprospects paladinolive@yahoo.com
