The Hockey Show - Episode 333

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns tonight to discuss all matters of hockey from the past week! It was a busy week around these parts with the 2019 Female World Sport School Challenge playing out at the BellMTS IcePlex, the Bisons women's hockey team was hosting the UBC Thunderbirds while the men were in Vancouver, and the Jets played against the Sharks. There was some craziness on the east coast when it came to hockey and it needs to be discussed because what sparked the brawl should never happen anywhere. Beans and I welcome back our friend from The Manitoban in Jason Pchajek to the show tonight!

Tonight, Beans, Jason, and I will take a look at the Leafs signing some marginal, fourth-line player to an absurd contract and how that affects the remaining young'uns who are approaching restricted free agency. We'll discuss the brawl in the AUS and what triggered it as we delve into a more serious subject, look at the final week of the Canada West season and what lies ahead for one of the two hockey teams who play out of Wayne Fleming Arena, get an update on the new roommate next season at Wayne Fleming Arena and how that's going, recap the 2019 Female World Sport School Challenge, discuss the players named to the Team Manitoba teams heading to the 2019 National Aboriginal Hockey Championship in Whitehorse in May, break down why Eugene Melnyk's plans for the Senators might be the signs of early on-set dementia, and set up the Jets and Canadiens tonight with a little Patrik Laine chatter in there. There's a lot to cover tonight, so make sure you're settled in at 5:30pm on UMFM for the show!

You might be wondering where the blurb about the UMFM app has gone. I'm going on record to say you can still use it, but the new UMFM website will fill the needs of our listeners because the new online streaming player is pretty awesome. If you're using an Apple device, the player doesn't seem to like Safari, but we highly recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store. The UMFM app will currently work for you, but there's some work being done to realign it with UMFM's new website, so it may go silent soon. If it does, TuneIn. It's a solid app.

I'm changing up the social media portion as well. I'm losing faith in Facebook, so that option will slowly be allowed to drift off into the horizon. However, the other options still work! Email all show questions and comments to hockeyshow@umfm.com! Tweet me anytime with questions you may have by hitting me up at @TeebzHBIC on Twitter! We're here to listen to you, so make your voice heard!

Tonight, Teebz, Beans, and Jason Pchajek discuss insane money, huge brawls, last games, new tenants, big tournament wins, good teams, crazy owners, dejected superstars, and much more only on The Hockey Show found exclusively on 101.5 UMFM, on the UMFM app, on the UMFM.com web stream!
