Josh Harding wins Masterton Trophy!

It is an exciting time for Minnesota Wild fans! Our very own Josh Harding has won the Masterton Trophy. Now, what's that, you may ask? The Masterton Trophy is the NHL award for player best exemplifying the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey. This is quite a feat, and such a great accomplishment for Harding, as he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis this past fall. We are so so proud of you, Josh!

MN Wild Summer Road Tour June 24th-26th

Wild fans, get ready!! The Minnesota Wild Summer road tour will have three different groups of players who will be on the road, covering 18 cities in three different states from June 24th through the 26th.

The first group will be Charlie Coyle, Jason Zucker, and former player Wes Walz (Ah!!). These three charmers will be in Moorehead and Park Rapids, June 24, Wadena and Alexandria, June 25, and St. Cloud and Hutchinson on June 26th.

The second group will be Josh Harding and Nate Prosser. They will be in Ely and Virginia June 24th, Two Harbors and Cloquet June 25th, and Brainerd and Elk River June 26th. This is perfect for all those hockey fans up north who may not get the chance to come to the cities to see a Wild game.

And last, but not least, the third group will be Clayton Stoner and Darcy Kuemper. They will travel to Eau Claire Wisc., and La Crosse Wisc. June 24th, Cedar Rapids Iowa and Des Moines Iowa, June 26th. Got to get to those Wisconsin and Iowa fans!

Mark your calendar and try to meet up with these Wild players!

The Minnesota Wild currently owe $55.8 million to 17 players in 2013-14

Here's the economic break down: The Minnesota Wild currently owe $55.8 million to 17 players in 2013-14. Woo. With the salary cap reducing to $64.3 million next season, we know they are going to have to be economically efficient in their spending, but that's all right, they can do it.

The Minnesota Wild team has plenty of firepower with a strong top line, obviously like Zach Parise, Mikko Koivu and Jason Pominville, along with those three young kids, Charlie Coyle, Jason Zucker and Mikael Granlund. They would be wise to re-sign Matt Cullen, the player that has had a positive influence on both winger Devin Setoguchi and Zucker.

We just hope the Wild knows what they are doing when they pay out their salary to their players. There is a lot of money at stake here.

Stanley Cup 2013 Updates: Red Wings and Blackhawks

It's no surprise that the Blackhawks have gone to the final round for the Stanley Cup as they beat our MN Wild. And last night, the Chicago Blackhawks smoked the Redwings late to force a Game 7. It was a great game, and hockey fans couldn't ask for a better game with better results.

 Game 7 in Chicago on Wednesday is going to be CRAZY! Make sure you tune in to watch the Blackhawks and the Redwings for their 7th game.

Wild Blackhawks Playoff Series Results

Wild fans and dear readers, yesterday I wrote to you about how I was very sad the Wild season was over. However, I just realized I completely forgot to recap the playoff games for you! Did you miss a few games? Here are the Wild Blackhawk playoff series results:


Tuesday April 30th: Wild played the Blackhawks in Chicago and lost 1-2 in overtime.

Friday May 3rd: Wild played the Blackhawks in Chicago and lost 2-5.

Sunday May 5th: Wild played the Blackhawks in St. Paul and won 3-2 in overtime. Could you feel the energy?

Tuesday May 7th: Wild played the Blackhawks in St. Paul and lost 3-0.

Thursday May 9th: Wild played the Blackhawks in Chicaso and lost 5-1.

I truly hope you were able to catch some of the games, either in downtown St. Paul at the Xcel Energy Center or at home on TV. Either way, I know you were rooting for your Wild. I sure cannot wait for next year!

MN Wild Season is Over

I have sunk into a state of depression that the Wild hockey season is offically over. It seemed like it came and went too fastly (thanks to the NHL Lockout). However, compared to last year and even the year before that, we will take anything we can get! I had a great time watching the Wild play more games in the section playoffs, and even making a bracket. Except, my bracket is for sure the worst anyone could even make up because I put the Wild winning it all (wouldn't guess anything else) sooo that was a fail. I would like to commend all the Wild fans for sticking it through and through and being true fans. The energy in the Xcel center was uncomparable and we enjoyed every second of the playoffs. Keep watching hockey and see who wins it all! And of course, always check my blog for hockey updates :)

Tickets to the LAST Regular Season Wild Game

WILD FANS! Are you getting excited for tomorrow? I know I am because it's the last regular season Wild game this 2013 season. After the tight win on Tuesday, where the Twins went 2-1 against the Kings, we can't wait to even see what happens on Friday. Did you check the box office and see that tickets were all out? We looked around online and found these tickets from Ticket King which are probably the best deal around! Can't wait to see everyone at the game at the Xcel on Friday!
