You ever have those nights where you just need a break? One dram minute of peace and quiet? That's what Brother Justice was made for. American single malt whiskey crafted right here in Minnesota with patience and precision. Made from 100% malted barley and aged in custom charred white oak. Each sip reveals smooth layers of caramelized fruit, warm vanilla, and a hint of campfire smoke. Brother Justice, the kind of pour that makes the paws feel earned. Find it in stores or online at brotherjustice.com. Want to reach Minnesota sports fans? Score North podcasts deliver loyal listeners who trust our hosts and the brands that support them.

Here's what Pat from Podregs Brewing had to say. To me, the most important thing that we do is we're able to target people with you guys. You know, most advertising is just so general, so spread out. You don't even know who sees it. Working with you guys, we actually know who they are. We know what their likes are. We kind of know their age group, their demographic, and probably are pretty sure they like beer. From custom campaigns to targeted sponsorships, Score North helps businesses grow through the power of sports audio. Reach out to Mark Ellis at mark.ellis at hbi.com and let's build something great together. My favorite, it's Judd's Hockey Show.

What specific players are contributing to the Wild's current success?

Unknown 1:27
Yes, we are live. Judd's Hockey Show from Grand Casino Arena. It's Judd. It's AJ. It is yet another wild win. 5-2 today. Start of back-to-backs. The Oilers today. The Wild wins. The Abs tomorrow.

What trade targets are being discussed for the Minnesota Wild?

Unknown 1:41
Can they win? Seven consecutive wins is, by the way, right now the longest winning streak in the league. And with this victory, AJ Fredrickson, the Wild now pull, I guess you could say, they pull within... Four points of Dallas, which beat the Shorts off or the Breezers off the Ducks last night in Anaheim. And they are now within eight points of the Avalanche. So if they win tomorrow in regulation, they could be within six points. And where do we start? So the Oilers come into this game as the fourth leading team in goal scoring this season. They leave here with two goals. The abs are number one.

How does the team plan to maintain their winning streak?

Unknown 2:24
I mean, this is a legitimate back to back stretch here. And this team just continues to play sound defensively. They continue to score enough to win games. We'll get into it. But guys that weren't scoring are now scoring. And it is really been I mean, it's remarkable right now. And about halfway through the game or more so might have been third period. I leaned over and asked you a very simple question. I said, how many guys who like a year ago or earlier this season who weren't doing squat are now key contributors? And the last thing before I throw it to you, Age, is the Wild also today in one fell swoop get Brodine, Middleton, Henestrosa, and Zuccarello, who had a couple of assists back.

What are the implications of the Wild's defensive strategies?

Unknown 3:06
Uh, Bogosian goes on IR, but this team today looked far more like the team that I think was the plan to see. And then you put in Quinn Hughes as well, who, I mean, it's just so silky smooth. So, I mean, it feels legitimate, right? Like it feels as bad as it was in the three, six and three starting Quinn Hughes changes a lot of things, but I, I'm sure there will be some downs at some point in time, but this feels legitimate starting with the fact that they allowed two goals. Defensively, if this was 7-5, I'd be like, okay, that was fun, but you're living dangerously. Two goals against age. Talk me off the ledge of positivity here. Am I being, because I've been too positive with this team before and it's bitten me right in the rear end, but am I being too positive about what we are currently seeing and sort of thinking that a lot of it is sustainable?
Unknown 4:01
Am I wrong?

How are the Wild's secondary scorers performing this season?

Judd Zulgad 4:02
I don't think so. Because we've watched this team go on runs before, Judd, where you know, it's positive and there's a few key takeaways and it's the Kirill Kaprizov show or Matt Boldy has stepped up and then maybe they get some good goaltending, but there's a lot that it's like, Oh, they got lucky here. This one bounce could have gone the other way. And you know, they're stringing together some points, but at the same time, this feels completely different in the sense where I fully believe they're earning every single point they've gotten over the past week, two weeks, month.
