Clips - Freelance work - WildXtra.com


WildXtra.com was part of the MinnCentric family of blogs, articles and forums providing independent coverage of the Minnesota Wild. I first started re-posting my own blogs onto this site before joining the staff of writers. After developing relationships with some of the founding writers on Twitter, they asked me to come on board as a writer.

I typically contributed one column per week to the site, plus commented on the forums section of the website, engaging with other hockey fans. Unfortunately, management decided to shut down the new content for the site at the end of 2016. 

​Here are a few posts I'd like to highlight. 
Something had to give - Feb. 15, 2016
​
