The Hockey Show - Episode 420

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, hits the airwaves tonight with Teebz and Jenna looking to cover off the last week of hockey news in a big way! There were all sorts of things that happened and news broke from all corners of the continent, so your two intrepid hosts will walk you through those stories with their thoughts and opinions on each! We also have a special appearance from our good friend, Bryan "Svenny" Sveinson, on this week's episode, so make sure you're buckled in!

It's a million-and-one topic show tonight! The excitement over the kid to the left is palpable in Winnipeg, and Teebz and Jenna explain why Cole Perfetti joining the Winnipeg Jets might be the player they've been seeking for that second-line center position! Teebz offers up condolences over the loss of Eddie Van Halen and send out our hopes that Guy Lafleur can battle back from a second cancer diagnosis before Bryan chimes in with his celebration of Tampa Bay's Stanley Cup victory! After that, Teebz and Jenna discuss Perfetti, some of the highlights from the NHL Entry Draft, the NHL start date of January 1, 2021 for the next season, the Canada West decision date being moved and more COVID-19 craziness from the sports world, the Spengler Cup being cancelled, the LA Kings firing the guy in their mascot suit, all the new uniforms being seen in the NHL, some of the trades seen in the NHL over the last week, and our thoughts on the Jets exploring a Patrik Laine. It is a busy show tonight, so make sure you tune in at 5:30pm CT on 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, and on UMFM.com!

Where's the best place can you hear tonight's show if you're outside Winnipeg or not near a radio, you ask? The new UMFM website's online streaming player is pretty awesome if you want to listen online. If you're using an Apple device, the player doesn't seem to like Safari yet, but we highly recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store or perhaps another browser. If you do use the TuneIn app, you won't be disappointed. It's a solid app.

If you have questions, you can email all show queries and comments to hockeyshow@umfm.com! Tweet me anytime with questions you may have by hitting me up at @TeebzHBIC on Twitter! I'm here to listen to you, so make your voice heard!

Tonight, Teebz and Jenna let Bryan gloat a little before digging into the new kid, the best moments, the new NHL season, any season for Canada West, no Spengler Cup, lots of COVID craziness, firings, trades, new threads, old threads coming back, a rumour that just won't go away, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
