The Hockey Show - Episode 587

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns for the final time before the big guy with the sleigh and the gifts stops by houses this holiday season. It's normally a jolly time of year, but our hosts have spent the last year diving into topics that may make people uncomfortable - sexual assault and misconduct in hockey, the lack of safety by the Department of Player of Safety, and the use of public funds to make billionaires richer - so it's time to have a show where we goof off a little. That's where our Show-Before-Christmas Episode comes in, so get ready for this one tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT!

Tonight on the program, Teebz and Jason will discuss the Spengler Cup entry that Canada will ice on Tuesday featuring Bruce Boudreau behind the bench as this is one of those tournaments that both hosts enjoy watching. Beyond that, Jaromir Jagr finally suits up for Kladno in his 37th professional hockey season, the Ottawa Senators replace DJ Smith, and the Winnipeg Jets might be the most fun team in the NHL. In the remaining time, our hosts will list the top-three side dishes they like for Christmas dinner, the top-three Christmas movies they enjoy watching, Jason fills us in on his elevator hijinks from last week, there's an interesting Melbourne Moment, and we'll finish off the show with our assorted announcements. With the Winter Solstice upon us, make sure you join us for another busy episode of The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

If you live outside Winnipeg and want to listen, we have options! The new UMFM website's online streaming player is pretty awesome if you want to listen online. We also recommend Radio Garden if you need an easy-to-use online stream. If you're more of an app person, we recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store or Google Play Store. If you use the TuneIn app, you won't be disappointed. It's a solid app.

Tonight, Teebz and Jason chat Spengler Cup, Jagr getting back on the ice, a new-but-old face in Ottawa, lots of smiles in Winnipeg, good side dishes, fun movies, being stuck in a box, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
