No bucket, no problem. Zeev Buium kicks off his NHL career with a classic rookie lap, and we’re off and running into the first round. It’s the postseason, but… it doesn’t quite feel like a playoff series yet — at least not the way it should. This episode we break down Game 1 against the Vegas Golden Knights, how the Wild can flip the momentum, and why this team still has a chance to make noise. Joining the crew this week is Joe O’Donnell — “Radio Joe” himself — who weighs in on some bad officiating and big hits from the NHL Playoff opener.

No dress rehearsal, this is our pod. Our 100th pod. With a nod to our century show, our favorite rink side reporter Kevin Gorg, aka K-Train, drops by the show to sit between your beloved hosts, and much like a pimento cheese sandwich, it's much more enjoyable chilled. However, with the playoff race still in full swing, the guys are a little less chill than usual. Join in for a breakdown of the Masters, and the Wild's last few games, before a big week, and a live pod recording at Mall of America on Thursday April 17th at 5pm at the Rotunda. Thanks to our sponsors Pilot Games, Cub, Wild Construction, Jimmy's Dressings and Dips, Aquarius Home Services, Pep's Drafthaus Pizza, T-Rex Cookies, and Bosch Law. Your Season 3 Finale is a click away, but hold on tight for game by game recaps from the second season.
