Incredible to see a local kid come up playing hockey in Minnesota and make his NHL debut with the Wild.
Literally a dream come true, incredible story with an incredible player.
What percentage of the team are from Minnesota ?
Currently there are only 3 players from Minnesota on team. However the are 46 other players from Minnesota on other teams in the NHL. @@tudormiller887
@@tudormiller887 It usually varies from 5% to 15% of the team
Watching this makes me love this kid even more. What an awesome young man
This is such a great series and makes the players so relatable and easy to root for. Great job, Wild media team.
Love to see a good, local, Minnesota kid make it to the NHL. It's clear to many people in the hockey community that Brock is a great guy. I wish him all the best.
The kid's got a lot of promise. Let's hope he stays healthy!
What a fantastic young man and a great role model for the young hockey community. So happy we have some home grown talent in Minnesota!
Sioux fan through and through but also just a hockey fan in general and there was no denying he was the heartbeat of the gophers, I’m glad I get to cheer for him openly now and not have to hide how much I love his game
Such a down to earth young man. Have a great season Brock.
Easily one of my favorite guys on the team
“Gotta get the sourdough bread goin”….💯 @18:43 (Sammy Walker cameo). 🥪🍞
I love faber so glad to have him with us
I love this for him! I love this for Minnesota! I love this for all our kids throughout the state who look up to him. My 1st year PW is super excited for Brock and wishes him a great season!!! I always feel super happy and proud when one of our own make it to the big leagues!!!
As a La Kings fan I was really bummed to see this kid go a couple years ago, best of luck to him going forward, easy to root for.
Will all do respect he belongs here
BROCK!!!👏👏
I had a good feeling about Brock when I heard he became a Wild. He is a true battle tested leader who should be a fixture in our roster for years.
How can you not just love this guy!
what a legendary dude
You gotta love seeing "LIVING THE DREAM "
Seeing local kids play for the home team is awesome
Get the crunch regardless. I think that's crazy. Was thinking the same thing Sammy.
Хороший парень. Вперёд дикари! Россия болеет за вас!
Thank you brother
"Players are bigger, stronger, smarter" only a handful of games going into playoffs and being a rare highlight in that highlight reel block then having points in the first two games of the 2023-24 season and a +3 in a 7-4 blowout loss to Toronto. Stay humble young King you're looking great out there
Brock Faber is the best hockey player ever
Classic MN hockey parents with the lawn chairs in parking lots. Also Paige is awesome!!
Let’s go Faber!
Номер у Брека,- СЧАСТЛИВЫЙ!❤ Все у него будет ХОРОШО!🙏
loved everything about this
What a guy
Must be so cool to play for your home town team
As anyone who has played sports at any decent level, nobody cries like that after a loss in a chip game unless they really truly prepared and believe they are the best and can be the best. This dude is a HOFer in the making
Overcooked scrambled eggs! My boy!!
That’s where I live and play hockey for maple grove
I'm happy that I made a cameo in this episode
class act, all there is to it
What a good brother
Is it poosible that The Wild will have an incredible season for all these fans to celebrate ? 😮
The dry toast sent me😂
Chills…
My uncle and him were friends and played hockey together and then my uncle worked for his dad
Paige is a pretty awesome hockey player, great to see it
PUT THE ERIC STAAL EPISODE BACK UP
Losing that game to quinnipiac was so hard I am not trying to be an excuse maker but the altercation with Cooley and the qunnipaic player and only Cooley got sent to the penalty box that was absolutely ridiculous and it didn’t cost us the game but it cost us to give up a goal god I hate the refs so much
Middleton shoeless in the gym is wild.
no butter on the toast? cmon brock....
0:24 the poor ref! :/
God that was a let down. Imagine playing the entire 3rd period on D against Quinnipiac.
Dean 💔
🏒
I loathe the Gophers but I hope this kid is a stud bc my first love is the Wild. Hope he can add some offense. Can skate like the wind. That is for sure.
5-10 years ago your getting qutos next thing yk your the one signing
“Battle tested in big 10 hockey” pretty sure the big 10 has 0 championships
Seems like a great guy but dude wear your seatbelt. Come on
He's clearly wearing one, it's under his left shoulder. Can you see the net from center ice? haha
3:33 battle tested playing big 10 so you're gonna step right into an NHL team huh? Whatever loser, good for Faber I'm pumped for him but chill out
He’s excelled in every aspect of the game at the top level so far
