Wildly Biased Show: Week #8-9-10

Well hello again, podcast fans! Welcome to a monster episode of the Wildly Biased Show!


Folks, it's been a few weeks since we did a show and we're making up for lost time by breaking down three weeks worth of Minnesota Wild hockey.

The boys have gone 4-3-3 since we last spoke and frankly, things are trending in the wrong direction. We break down the Wild's suddenly impotent defensive corps, the struggles of Devan Dubnyk, the advanced statistic of "Save Percentage," treading water in the Central Division, how well the Wild coped with the absence of Zach Parise, Matt Belesky's slashing of Jason Zucker, Travis Hamonic's struggles with geography, the disappearance of Nino Niederreiter, the throwback-to-the-90's style of the Winnipeg Jets, Nate Prosser's attempt to avenge Zach Parise's injury, the Jason Pominville Goal Watch, the new All-Star Game format, and the Wild's Stadium Series sweaters!

We also touch on Phil's trip to Seattle, his undying love of seasfood, the San Diego Chargers imminent move to Los Angeles, the difficulty of driving across the Canadian prairie, everything that's wrong with the city of Pittsburgh, the un-killable legacy of the North Stars, the history of the Wild's sweaters, the prevalence of Marquette basketball fans in Minneapolis, and the real MVP of Thanksgiving!

Also: Phil kills a bug live on the air. Solid episode all around.



Be sure to check back for next week's episode as we recap the Wild's games against the Stars, Blackhawks, & Leafs. We'll also discuss anything else that comes up during the week.

As always, feel free to drop us a line here on the blog or via e-mail (WildlyBiased@gmail.com). You can also hit us up on Twitter (Phil at @Phileeeeeeep and me at @WildlyBiased). We'd love to discuss the Wild, the NHL, or, really, whatever you feel like talking about.

Wildly Biased Show: Week #6

Well hello again, podcast fans! Welcome to Week #6 of the Wildly Biased Show!


The Wild sandwiched a divisional loss around two victories last week and Trevor & Phil are back to recap all of it. Between the wins & losses they find time to discuss just what's wrong with the Ducks, the future of California hockey, Jason Zucker's franchise-record fastest goal, Darcy Kuemper's struggles, Zach Parise's work ethic, Devan Dubnyk's knee, what's going right with the Edmonton Oilers & who's going to come out of the Pacific Division, Ryan Suter: Textbook Hockey Player.

They also take their monthly long, hard look at the Central Division standings. Can the Preds continue to dominate with D? Will the Stars goaltending hold up? Do the Blues have any idea what they're doing? Do the Blackhawks care about the regular season at all? How scary are the Jets? What's the point of the Colorado Avalanche?

They wrap the show up with a trip around the NHL. Talking about the Habs first loss, the Blue Jackets first win, Evander Kane's unwillingness to show remorse, Jeremy Roenick's alligator wrestling, and the passing of original St. Louis Blue Jimmy Roberts.

As always, the show's free to stream.  Also, as always, be aware that we use some big-boy language on the show.



They'll be back next week to discuss the Wild's first meeting of the season with the hated Chicago Blackhawks, a trip down to St. Louis, and the Nashville Predators first visit to St. Paul of the 2015-16 season. All that plus anything else that comes up and another trip around the league.

As always, feel free to drop them a line here on the blog or via e-mail (WildlyBiased@gmail.com). You can also hit them up on Twitter (Phil at @Phileeeeeeep and me at @WildlyBiased). They'd love to discuss the Wild, the NHL, or, really, whatever you feel like talking about.
