 The Minnesota Wild Hockey Team is used to being on frozen water, but this week they were on Moax Lake as part of a fishing tournament. Anthony Scott has more as part of this week's Northwood's adventure. Fans went wild when they saw their favorite Minnesota Wild Players and Coaches at this year's Wild on the Water event. Fans who bought VIP passes were teamed up with current and former Wild Players and Coaches to compete in an all-day fishing tournament. We had four teams of five, so we've got 20 participants out there with celebrities and pro guides, hopefully catching some big bass. Some of the celebrities on the water included Zach Parise, Jason Zucker, head coach Bruce Broudreau, and general manager Paul Fenton. It was a lot of fun. It was super casual. We had a great time. The interaction with the fans was great and anytime we can give back, they give us so much that anytime we can give back, we're going to do it and you get a great resort like this, the weather being beautiful, you can't get much more of a perfect weekend than that. After watching the tournament, it was easy to tell why there are hockey players instead of anglers. I'm awful and I don't have the patience to be a good fisherman, but once a year I'll get out there and do it and I never catch anything, but I have fun. Our boat caught two. I unfortunately didn't catch any, but we had some fun out there. Half of the proceeds from Wild on the Water went to support the Minnesota Wild Foundation while the other half went to support a charity of the winner's choice along with two free tickets to a future Minnesota Wild game. So the Minnesota Wild Foundation's mission is to grow the game of hockey of course and to improve the lives of families in the state of hockey and really our focus is on children's medical related causes. After the weigh-in and the prizes were handed out, the players stuck around for some autographs and there were plenty of games for fans to test their skills at. There was plenty of fun for the whole family. It was a fun time on the water. Anytime you get to come out with your dad and a family friend and you know, fish will actually have a great body of water and it was pretty fun.

And the Minnesota Wild can do a lot of fishing until their season starts with a pre-season game against Winnipeg on September 17th.
