Wild on 7th

For the first time in 11 years, the Minnesota Wild have entered the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs! Ryan Carter and John King are joined by Kevin Gorg and Joe O'Donnell to put a bow on the series that sent Jamie Benn to the golf course. After a late night celebrating with fellow staffers, the guys break down the series, the turning points, the biggest goals, and how important this is for the franchise and the fan base. They talk superstitions, power-ponytails, and loose change, all while recognizing that the players have different things in mind, and that's a laser focus on winning the Stanley Cup! This team feels different, and although we've maybe said this in the past, these are writing their own story, so follow along as we go on this Stanley Cup Playoff journey together!

The Minnesota Wild take game 5 in Dallas, and take the series lead as they return to the silver city of Saint Paul for a Thursday night tilt. Kevin Gorg and Joe O'Donnell join King and Carts for a full recap. The guys discuss some superstitions amongst the broadcast team, some power pony tails, and some shiny pocket change, that truly could be the difference makers. Wild with Trenin and Zuccy back in the lineup, played a poised game, and the fan base enjoyed a calm and collected squad that was deep in enemy territory. Game 6 at Grand Casino Arena in Saint Paul is going to be electric. Enough Minnesota Nice, take the last cookie, eat the last nacho, don't hold the door for anyone, it's playoff hockey, and the Wild are on the verge of taking round 1! Let's Go. (13.)

Minnesota Wild take game 4 against the Dallas Stars. Kevin Gorg and Joe O'Donnell join Ryan Carter and John King for a full recap of the game. Razor sharp wit from all sides except Dallas, but I'm sure they'll try in game 5. We're all on this roller coaster together, so lock in, listen up, and follow the lead from Matt Boldy, Kirill Kaprizov, Brock Faber, and Jesper Wallstedt, just to name a few. This is a Wild squad that knows there is alot of hockey left to play. Off to Dallas for Game 5, so stay sharp fans!
btw, Happy Birthday to number 97, Kirill Kaprizov!

The Minnesota Wild played a late one against the Dallas Stars...ending this morning actually.  They lost.  It's ok.  This is the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  This is a series.  The fans were electric at Grand Casino Arena, and we need you to continue being that.  Get a nap in if you need it.  Swing through Denny's for a grand slam to calm the nerves (no free ads).  Take a listen to this recap, and replay Matt Boldy's post game presser (heard in this show), and realize that the Minnesota Wild are going to be ready for Saturday's afternoon tilt and will take it.  Relax; it's Wild on 7th; it's the Minnesota Wild in the Stanley Cup Playoffs; and we're about to write history in our way! 

Wild drop game 2 in Dallas, along with a Trenin and Zuccarello, and now we have a series.  Listen up Wild fans, this is nothing to be concerned about!  The Wild are heading back to Saint Paul to drop the puck in a best of 5, and Grand Casino Arena is going to be electric.  Joe O'Donnell joins Ryan Carter and John King for a full breakdown of game 2, and some legit optimism for Game 3.  

The Minnesota Wild take game 1 in the opening series of the Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Dallas Stars.  Ryan Carter and Joe O'Donnell join us from the road in Dallas, where they witnessed a very strong opening game from the Wild.  John King is holding down the studio at TRIA rink, making sure the rock tumbler is rolling, and maintaining the hate, as this series is about to heat up.  Big game by nearly all Wild players, Kirill Kaprizov snipes, big goals by Matt Boldy, Ekker, Ryan Hartman, the list goes on.  Series stands at 1-0 Minnesota. Give it listen before puck drop in Dallas on Monday night. (15.)

The 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs are upon us, and the Minnesota Wild kick things off on the road against Dallas on Saturday. King and Carts welcome back two fan favorites this week, with the voice of Wild Radio Joe O'Donnell, and Wild rink side reporter Kevin Gorg, for some preflight appetizers, predictions, and good ole fun. Kinger is dressed for the post season, and he's ready to drag everyone into this fight, so buckle up for a tasty Stanley Cup Playoff Primer, and let the hate build before puck drop on Saturday afternoon. Thanks to all our fans and listeners, and thanks to the haters for keeping us top of mind. Special shout out to our live audience guest, 3rd Period Hypeman! Keep bringing the hype! See you all at Grand Casino Arena next week!

Happy Easter Monday to the Wild on 7th faithful!  We hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Ryan and John are back in the studio this week to recap the latest Minnesota Wild games over their back to back weekend.  The guys pass out bouquets to nearly the entire roster, share their love for Kirill's bangs, Trenin's hits, and Easter ham, but the real star of this weeks show is the zyn Santa himself, #7 Brock Faber.  Brock graciously stopped by the Custom One Club at Grand Casino Arena following team picture day, and shared some laughs with Carts and Kinger.  Thankfully, Brock brought his mustache along for the ride, as all eyes look towards the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  Throw away your trimmer, because the playoffs are almost here!
