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!

Wild on 7th- Back-Alley-Guy Michael McCarron and Remembering Jessi Pierce
Monday Mar 23, 2026
Monday Mar 23, 2026
There is a void in the State of Hockey that will never be filled, as we remember our colleague and friend Jessi Pierce, who's life, alongside her 3 children and family dog, was cut short in a tragic house fire on March 21st, in White Bear Lake, MN. We will remember her and her infectious smile, and we will miss her around the rink and in the media scrum. The game of hockey lost one of its biggest fans, and one of its many voices. May you rest in peace Jessi, Hudson, Cayden, and Avery.
In support of Jessi and her children, Ryan Carter and John King share some stories and admiration about Jessi, and as she would, continue on to deliver the hockey content you all desire. The guys spend some time talking about the Dallas Stars matchup over the weekend, and then welcome Minnesota Wild newcomer Michael McCarron to the show, for an awesome interview and the classic rapid fire segment.

Wild on 7th- Episode #137 Our Team and Our Mileage are Legit
Wednesday Mar 18, 2026
Wednesday Mar 18, 2026
Trade deadline has passed, and the Minnesota Wild have clearly made the biggest splash in the league (that just so happened a month prior to the deadline) with Quinn Hughes. Carts and King connect this week after a flurry of pods surrounding Kirill and Zuccy, the boys high school hockey tournament and the trade deadline, so it's nice to be back in the studio for some good old fashion Wild on 7th banter! King was stuck in transit earlier this week, with a huge spring snow storm wreaking havoc on his travel plans, so we've made a couple pivots and here we are...a Wednesday pod. The guys breakdown a number of milestones happening for Minnesota Wild hockey, give some bouquets to Ryan Hartman, Equipment Manager Tony DeCosta, JoJo, Brodie, Bolds, and the list goes on! When it's all said and done, the main take away is that the Minnesota Wild are a legit team, possibly in the most legit position in franchise history, and the guys have their sights on the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Welcome back to Wild on 7th....it's almost time to get weird!
