Podcasts about Mikko Koivu

Tässä jaksossa Osku Valtosen vieraana on legendaarinen TPS-pelaaja Mikko Koivu, joka avaa mietteitään urastaan ja elämästään. Jakson aikana Koivu jakaa unohtumattomia hetkiä uransa varrelta, kuten ensimmäisen liiga-askeleet, maajoukkuemuistonsa ja tunnelmat TPS-vuosilta. Hän kertoo myös uran käännekohdista, jotka veivät hänet NHL:n huipulle, sekä siitä, mitä TPS ja maajoukkue ovat merkinneet hänen identiteetilleen pelaajana ja ihmisenä. Koivu pohtii, miten TPS:n yhteisöllisyys, sitoutuminen ja perinteet ovat vaikuttaneet hänen uraansa ja miten nämä arvot näkyvät edelleen hänen päivittäisessä elämässään. Tämän lisäksi hän kertoo ylpeydestä, ja korostaa sitä, että on äärimmäisen ylpeä siitä, että sai edustaa kolmea hänelle merkityksellistä joukkuetta: TPS:ää, Suomen maajoukkuetta ja Minnesota Wildia. Hän avaa miten nämä kokemukset ovat muokanneet häntä niin pelaajana kuin ihmisenä. Mitkä hetket ovat jääneet Mikon mieleen kaikkein kirkkaimmin? Se selviää tässä jaksossa!

Long-time Minnesota Wild Captain, Mikko Koivu dropped by your favorite Wild podcast for the hard hitting questions now that he is enjoying his retirement. Carts and King dive into what makes the Fin tick, his love of ice cold coke between periods, the importance of freshly warmed gloves, and his famous shootout move that continually proved successful even when the entire arena knew it was coming. A guy that still appreciates the trainers over all the years, Mikko Koivu still sounds like he is game ready. So strap in, put your gloves on the dryer, crush that ice, and listen up to Finnish former captain. #9forAllTime

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we start by discussing Joel Eriksson Ek's current numbers compared to Mikko Koivu's throughout his career. We discuss Koivu's longevity, compared to the number of things Eriksson Ek is asked to do for this current Wild team. We debate whether each player would be able to be successful in the other player's era. Eriksson Ek would have done just fine in the early 2000s, but would Koivu be anything higher than a middle six center in this current era of the NHL? We move to the Western Conference playoff picture, with every team in front of the Wild winning last night. We preview both games against Edmonton and Seattle this weekend, and key players to watch for both teams. We discuss the need for the Wild to get another line to step up, and why it's likely with both of these games being "Must Win" Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: Locked On Wild Follow/Subscribe Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnWild Follow Locked On NHL: linktr.ee/lockedonNHL Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we look back at previous First Round draft picks to determine whether or not they were hits or misses, and who else was available in years they didn't pan out. We start in the early part of the franchise history when the Wild hit on players like Marian Gaborik, Mikko Koivu and Brent Burns. We also navigate more than a few lean years, with picks such as AJ Thielen and Tyler Cuma. We finish strong with solid selections in Jonas Brodin, Matt Dumba and Joel Eriksson Ek. We look at the eternal "What If" draft moment in 2014 when the Wild traded with Tampa Bay so they could select Brayden Point. As well as missing out on Carey Price.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Alex Micheletti joins for a Micheletti Monday to recap the last week and Mikko Koivu's jersey retirement. We start with the start of the week against the Rangers in which it looked like the Wild had returned to their old form. We move to their most recent games and the same problems that have deflated the Wild since the second half started. We look at the Penalty Kill, Power Play and Faceoff Numbers that have been very poor since the second half started. We move to Koivu's retirement ceremony, and if we think any current Wild players may have their numbers retired down the line. We finish by looking at a light week for the Wild, but one that they must play well in to avoid further panic.Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: Locked On WildFollow/Subscribe Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnWildFollow Locked On NHL: linktr.ee/lockedonNHLSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offersBuilt Bar - Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Zach Zeman returns and we discuss the signing of Jordie Benn. Will he be more of a depth player or could he actually get starters minutes on the 3rd line? We then move to trying to figure out who is the best center in Wild history. We start with maybe the most obvious choice in Mikko Koivu. Koivu is a perfect example of longevity and consistency which allowed him to climb to the top of almost every statistical category in the history of the franchise. We discuss the offense that Eric Staal, Brian Rolston and Mikael Granlund brought to the table in their short time with the team. We also discuss the defense and grit that Wes Walz, Pierre Marc-Bouchard and Kyle Brodziak brought with them. And we ponder what could have been with Pavol Demitra had he been with the team for longer than two seasons.

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Seth answers a ton of submitted questions. We start by looking at the potential for Kirill Kaprizov to sign a shorter contract and if the Wild need to potentially trade him or risk him leaving via free agency and getting nothing in return. On that note we look at other examples of when Minnesota teams tried to trade a star on his way out and got little to nothing in return. We also look at potential players that Seth wants to give Seattle in the Expansion Draft, including Zach Parise and Victor Rask. We look at potential center targets for the Wild, including Jack Eichel, Sam Reinhart and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. We also look at Eric Staal's legacy in Minnesota, and how he finished in a similar spot to Mikko Koivu except from an offensive perspective (expected to be on a higher line than he should have been). And we finish by discussing the most attractive players on the Wild roster, and sorry Kevin Fiala tops the list.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AGThere is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.
