Locked On Wild - Your Daily Minnesota Wild Podcast

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth gears up for Game 6 between the Wild and Golden Knights. We look at keys to Game 6, including another good showing from Kirill Kaprizov, Kevin Fiala returning to form, and Cam Talbot continuing to go toe to toe with Marc-Andre Fleury. We also examine the Wild's history of success in Game 6, including their memorable playoff runs in 2002-03 and 2013-14 in which they won Game 6 to force Game 7 in the opening round. We finish with a game we played on Twitter looking at the former North Stars greats we associate most with their logo, with most participants choosing Dino Ciccarelli and Mike Modano.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth recaps an improbable Game 5 win for the Wild in which they rewrote the entire script of the series by dominating early in the second period and still winning. Seth gives a passionate monologue about how sometimes the script just needs to be torn up, and sometimes the favorite doesn't win even when they play better. We also hand out our Three Stars of the Game, with great performances by Kirill Kaprizov, Zach Parise and of course Cam Talbot. We look at how Talbot was able to survive as dominant of a second period as you will ever see from the Golden Knights and then keep them off the board in the third. We also hand out praise to Dean Evason for his line tweaks such as moving Victor Rask back to the Kaprizov line and moving Ryan Hartman to the Fiala line. Onward to Game 6!

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth recaps the Wild's 4-0 loss in Game 4 and looks ahead to what the Wild need to do to keep the series alive tonight in Game 5. We discuss the goalie interference called on Marcus Foligno that once again sucked the life out of the Wild. We also look at a few players that need to help fill the void left by Kirill Kaprizov being neutralized including Mats Zuccarello and Nico Sturm. We finish the episode by looking at former Wild players currently in the playoffs and the varying levels of success they have had. This includes the Nashville "Wild" combo of Mikael Granlund, Luke Kunin and Eric Haula.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth previews Game 4 in the Wild-Golden Knights series. We look at the loss of Marcus Johansson, and Zach Parise being the likely replacement for him in the lineup. We also look at the possibility of Kyle Rau getting into the lineup over Nick Bjugstad based on today's practice. We go line by line with what needs to happen tonight for each for the Wild to win. Can Kirill Kaprizov, Ryan Hartman and Mats Zuccarello generate chances while Kaprizov continues to see increased attention? Will Marcus Foligno, Joel Eriksson Ek and Jordan Greenway restore order if things get chippy? Can Victor Rask adequately facilitate Kevin Fiala and Zach Parise from different parts of the ice? Will Nico Sturm and Nick Bonino create some magic with Kyle Rau? We also discuss keys for the defense and for Cam Talbot ahead of tonight's game.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth recaps the Wild's 5-2 loss to Vegas in Game 3. Disappointing elements from Game 3 include the momentum killing 3rd goal that was disallowed, and being critical of officiating every time adversity is faced. Another disappointing element was the amount of players who disappeared when the Wild simply needed someone to step up. We also get angry at how things transpired, very angry. The episode finishes with the Three Stars of the Night, with notable performances from Nick Bonino, Ryan Hartman and Joel Eriksson Ek. Hopefully this episode serves as a rallying cry ahead of a must win Game 4.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth is joined by Alexis Pearson and Jessi Pierce of the Bardown Beauties Podcast to preview Game 3 between the Wild and Golden Knights. We start by recapping our favorite thing about Game 2 and the most frustrating aspect of Game 2. In looking ahead to Game 3, we look at whether or not this is the time for Zach Parise to jump back into the lineup. We also discuss whether the Power Play or Penalty Kill is under more pressure going forward, and if anything specifically needs to change to lead to more goals against Marc-Andre Fleury. We finish the episode playing "Picks to Click" where Seth, Alexis and Jessi take turns picking a player off of each of the Wild's lines that they think will have the best performance in Game 3.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth recaps the 3-1 loss in Game 2 that evens the series at 1-1. We talk about the positives that can be taken from the loss, such as a much better start and bounce back performances from the likes of Kevin Fiala. We also touch on the struggles for Marcus Johansson and Victor Rask, and why the Wild just need to keep hammering away at Marc-Andre Fleury with high leverage shots. We hand out our Three Stars of the Night, with great performances from Cam Talbot, Matt Dumba and Kevin Fiala. Seth finishes by again calling for fans not to panic, as the Wild have been the better team despite playing on the road and playing against a very tough Vegas team.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Brett Marshall of Sound the Foghorn joins to give his thoughts on the Game 1 win, and to preview Game 2. We look at the best performances in Game 1, including Ryan Hartman, Joel Eriksson Ek and Cam Talbot, and discuss Zach Parise's future with the team. We also look at some of the biggest keys to Game 2, including a step up for Kevin Fiala, Victor Rask and Ryan Johansson, continued brilliance from the Wild defense and whether or not Talbot's Game 1 performance can translate throughout the rest of the series.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth recaps the Wild's 1-0 OT win over Vegas in Game 1 of their playoff series. We talk about how the Wild navigated a ton of changes by the Golden Knights and won with the formula that got them to the playoffs. Cam Talbot was masterful and helped keep the team in the game through a rocky first period. Despite the flashy brilliance from Marc-Andre Fleury, Joel Eriksson Ek delivered the only goal the Wild needed to steal game 1. We also talk about how much of a lift winning game 1 on the road can provide.

The Three Stars of the Night feature a dynamic game from Ryan Hartman, the first non-regulation goal of the season for Joel Eriksson Ek, and an all-time game from Cam Talbot. We also discuss Dean Evason sticking to what got the Wild into the playoffs and why it will help the Wild as the series goes on. And we finish by discussing Zach Parise being a healthy scratch again, and why the writing is on the wall that his days in Minnesota are numbered one way or another.

On Part 2 of the Wild-Golden Knights Playoff Preview, Karlo Gonzales joins once again to look at the X's and O's of the Wild-Golden Knights series. We look at how the Golden Knights will try to slow down Kirill Kaprizov, and what the Wild will do to try to slow down Mark Stone. We dive into the goalie matchup between Cam Talbot and Marc-Andre Fleury, and how each team will try to attack each starter. We then drop our predictions for who will win the series, what each team will need to do to win and who ultimately moves on.
