Wild Takes

On this week's episode of Wild Takes, Dev is joined by the elite hockey mind of Alex Micheletti while Zooch is on vacation.

Alex and Dev talk about which Minnesota Wild prospects have lit it up the most in camp (hint: Adam Beckman) and how exciting the future of the Wild is, conspiracy theories surrounding the Wild's cap situation, and how much of a dirt bag Evander Kane is.

Critics are calling this episode "funnier than Evander Kane trying to pass a fake vaccine card off to medical doctors".

On this episode of Wild Takes, Dev and Zooch get to rejoice as Kirill Kaprizov has finally signed his extension with the Minnesota Wild. They talk about what that means for the Wild's future, and speaking of future they also break down the exciting moments from prospect camp. Then the boys are joined by 10K's Veech and Marlow to draft their all-time best Wild starting lineups. It's an electric competition you won't want to miss.

Critics are calling this episode "infuriating when [redacted] was left off the draft board" and "really exciting stuff, especially when they were right about Kirill!" 

You won't want to miss this one.

On this episode of Wild Takes, the boys are joined by Doug Greenberg - a professional gambling writer, as he breaks down what the best futures are looking like in the NHL this year. He also gives out some sleeper picks he likes, including one trend that he expects to continue for the fourth straight year.

To find out what the trend is, you have to listen to the episode of Wild Takes critics are calling "good for my wallet, bad for my marriage" and "the second best thing you could hear today with the first being that Kirill Kaprizov has signed his extension".

On this absurd episode of the Wild Takes Podcast, Dev and Zooch are joined by Rex, Dev's buddy from Alabama as he tries to assess which team names and logos are the best in the NHL. He also addresses which 3 teams in the NHL need to be flat out cancelled. Which ones? You'll have to listen to find out.

Critics are calling it "the funniest episode yet" and "the podcast that convinced me to get the COVID-19 vaccine".

On this episode of Wild Takes, Jenner is on a well deserved vacation and is temporarily replaced by 10K's Timberwolves writer Lancman. Dev can't figure out how to pronounce his name, (shocker) but puts together a game to compare players, coaches, and franchises between the NBA and the NHL.

Also Kirill Kaprizov is going to sign in Minnesota. Relax.

Critics are calling this episode "honestly, a little frustrating to hear Dev fuck up another name" and "a nice change of pace, but definitely one I'm glad I listened to because it saved my marriage."

On this episode of Wild Takes, Dev and Zooch formally acknowledge Kid Jen as the third co host of the Wild Takes podcast. Then the three of them all team up to knock out Expansion Draft, Free Agency, what's happening with Fiala/Kaprizov. But the real Wild Takes are the friends we made along the way.

Critics are calling this episode "the reason Greg Joseph's wife left him" and "much better than the Delta variant" so download and go crazy! Thanks to our friends at Sota Stick for the swag hookup.

On this week's episode of Wild Takes, 10K's own Kid Jen returns to guest host with Dev and Zooch as they discuss the expected buyout of Zach Parise and the unexpected buyout of Ryan Suter. What it means, how the Wild can still win a Cup with that dead money, and Kid Jen has the inside track about how it went down.

They also address the new MN Wild Pup, Celly, and figure out a way to get hockey back to Atlanta. All that and more on an episode that critics are calling "more important to me than my children" and "better than the season finale of Loki".

On this electric episode of the Wild Takes podcast, the gents are joined by The Sota Pod's State of Hoppy. They talk NHL Awards, scandals involving former players and mom's wives, Hoppy asks if Pat Maroon is possibly better than Marion Hossa, and also puts together a possible way for the Wild to go get Brayden Point to play between Zuccarello and Kaprizov.

All that and more on an episode critics are calling "soulcrushing" and "not a great episode for wives".

Dev and Zooch welcome on the newest Wild contributor to 10K, Kid Jen! The Kid has a long history in scouting prospects so he gives everyone a sneak peek of who the Wild may wind up drafting in a few short weeks. They also talk Habs vs Vegas, make heads and tails of the Kevin Weekes Kaprizov tweet, and Jen issues an open challenge that he can down 5 beers before Bossman.

Critics are calling this episode "tremendous, educational, and a bit unhinged" adding "listening to this podcast probably saved my first marriage".

On this episode of Wild Takes, the fellas are joined by a different Bruins guy who is developing a way to keep NHL officials accountable. They also make jokes about the Canadian teams in the NHL, Dev takes up for the Canadiens, and the boys get excited about Marco Rossi skating for the first time in months. To paraphrase the poet O'Shea Jackson "it was a good episode"


Critics are calling this must listen episode "heartwarming" "two thumbs way up" and "wait a minute, these are just generic lines of praise you see in the trailer for a 90s Rom-Com!"
