NBA insider Chris Haynes posted the initial report to social media on Friday morning, citing league sources. This will be the first preseason action Embiid has […]
The Last Fake Game Before It Gets Real And so here we are, the sixth and final preseason game. The end of the road before basketball starts to count again. For Chris Finch and his staff, Friday night in Philadelphia is the last chance to tinker, experiment, and evaluate the young guys before the Timberwolves […]
A look into Walker Jenkins stock going into the 2025-26 off-season
The post Will Walker Jenkins Help Turn the Tide for the Twins in 2026? appeared first on Pitcher List .
With the start of the regular season less than a week away, the Minnesota Timberwolves took on the Chicago Bulls, looking to tune up a few final areas before starting their 2025-26 campaign. The Timberwolves played their full rotation of starting players in the game, with Naz Reid as the lone exception, as he missed […]
It's hard to emphasize just how weird this feels to type: The Minnesota Wild have the best power play in the NHL.
If that's ever been true before, it's never been for long. Since the Wild's inception in 2000-01, their power play percentage has been 18.0%, 24th of 32 teams. (I refuse to split up...
The Sixers will play their final preseason game Friday at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves. After that, it’s time for opening night in Boston against the Celtics next Wednesday. The injury updates from Thursday’s practice were mostly positive: No matter if Embiid plays or not, Nurse is looking to get his available regulars as much […]
The Dallas Stars entered Tuesday’s national TV game on a 14-game point streak against the Minnesota Wild (9-0-5).
Dallas made it 15 after an 8:50 pm puck drop on ESPN.
It’s unwise to make sweeping generalizations about early results. Still, it’s also wrong to dismiss them entirely. The Wi...
Joel Eriksson Ek is back to full health and has resumed his role as a key player for the Minnesota Wild, especially on the power play. He’s averaging 19:55 time on ice per game (TOI/G) through the Wild’s 4 regular season games, has scored a power play goal, and has 3 assists.
Although they los...

No one truly expected Minnesota Wild rookie Zeev Buium to score a boatload of points in his first ever regular season games. Especially after he somewhat faltered during his debut in the playoffs last season, Buium was largely seen as someone who might need a few weeks to get the fe...
The Minnesota Wild were always going to be walking on a high wire this season. They're a playoff-caliber team laden with veterans who've been in the fold for a half-decade or more. It's also the case that they're working on bringing along four rookies into the NHL (as well as not-a-rookie-but-21-yea...
Minnesota Timberwolves at Chicago BullsDate: October 16th, 2025Time: 7:00 PM CDTLocation: United CenterTelevision Coverage: FanDuel Sports Network – NorthRadio Coverage: KFAN FM, Wolves App, iHeart Radio The Wolves Beat the Guangzhou Loong-Lions (Because, Of Course They Did) Let’s start with the obvious: the Minnesota Timberwolves just beat the Guangzhou Loong-Lions by 60 points in a […]
Timberwolves Blow Past the Loong-Lions, Now Set Their Sights on the Bulls — and Reality Let’s be honest: that 60-point curb-stomping of the Loong-Lions wasn’t basketball, it was cardio with referees. That’s what the preseason is for: one part entertainment, one part lab experiment, and one part “please don’t let anyone get hurt.” After two […]
Ryan Hartman had a turbulent season with the Minnesota Wild last year. He only registered 26 points in 69 games, his lowest scoring total since the 2020-21 campaign. The pesky forward also drew the longest suspension in the league when the NHL banned him for 10 games (later reduced to eight) after a...
When Marco Rossi scored a goal to put the Minnesota Wild ahead 1-0 in the fourth round of the shootout, all eyes went back to the other end of the ice. How would Jesper Wallstedt -- who'd already turned away Adrian Kempe, Trevor Moore, and Kevin Fiala -- hold up in a huge-pressure situation?
If...
Much like the current theatrical film of the same name, Byron Buxton took Minnesota Twins fans on a big, bold, beautiful journey in 2025. In a year that appalled a large section of the fanbase, Buxton managed to post a season for the ages. Let’s take a look at what I consider to be the […]

The Minnesota Wild are back to their winning ways. After dominating the St. Louis Blues and following up that season-opening win with a floundering loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Wild were able to survive a late-game comeback against the Los Angeles Kings on Monday night...
If you wanted to watch the Minnesota Timberwolves’ first-round pick, Joan Beringer, play in NBA competition, you got that for a small portion of this game. That’s about all I can report. Former NBA journeyman Frank Kaminsky, a starting member of the Guangzhou Loong-Lions and coming off of a team-leading 22 point game against the […]
