Bonino Welcomes First Son in Middle of Playoffs

BONINO BONINO BONINO!

Words that have become synonymous with the crew here at 10K Takes and Wild fans this season. All thanks to the man himself, Nick Bonino.

Can we bring the BONINO energy to other sports??

Although he has solidified himself as one of this year’s Wild favorites, his wild year has just begun. Outside of helping the Wild to Game 7 of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, he and his wife, Lauren, welcomed a baby boy to the hockey world!

Nick Bonino's wife, Lauren, gave birth to their first son and their third child Wednesday at 2:30 pm. The #mnwild fwd rushed into the arena at 6 p.m., played Game 6, then flew to Vegas yesterday while Bowie was a day old.

Any time an athlete is able to juggle some of the most intense games of their careers with one of the most intense moments in their life always amazes me. So while us Wild fans are cheering on the team Friday night in Game 7, Bonino has someone extra special to be playing for tonight and, hopefully, into the next round.

Nick Bonino, who just welcomed his first boy, Bowie, before Game 6 on Wednesday. "I'll skip some of the more intimate parts for ya. …felt a little bit tired in warmups but Game 6, elimination game, those are easy to get up for." #mnwild

Maybe even go as far as winning the whole damn thing for Minnesota and his kid. How cute would it be to see Baby Bowie Bones sitting in the Stanley Cup?! Beyond adorable! My ovaries are bursting thinking about the cuteness right now.

Congratulations to the Boninos! Everyone here at 10K Takes hope you are all happy and healthy! Now we hope we get to yell Bonino not only tonight, but all the way to the Cup!
