Follow the Wild in Sochi

The Bolshoy Ice Dome in Sochi. Phoro: Kevin Liles/USA Today

For those of you paying particular interest to just the Wild players in Sochi over the next few weeks, well then this is the post for you. The following is a complete schedule of when Mikael Granlund, Nino Niederreiter, Zach Parise, and Ryan Suter will be participating in the Olympic Hockey Tournament.

Each game listed is accompanied by its start time here in Minnesota followed by what channel the game is shown on. Because every single network owned by NBC is airing Olympic coverage, every single hockey game gets aired live. So for those looking to watch games not played by the US or Canada, you are in luck.
