The Hockey Show - Episode 604

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, has one purpose today when it comes to hockey: getting you entered into the greatest hockey radio contest on the face of the planet! Tonight is all about getting sixteen people registered and entered into the 2024 edition of Survivor: NHL Playoffs, and that means you need your phone handy between 5:30 and 6:30pm CT so you can call the show at 204-269-8636 to enter! You can't win prizes if you're not entered, and we have some solid prizing that's on its way to the station. We'll discuss some of that tonight between calls as we kick off Survivor: NHL Playoffs tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT!

For those of you who don't read the blog regularly, the rules for the Survivor: NHL Playoffs contest can be found here. Beginning slightly after 5:30pm CT, the phone lines will be opened, Teebz and Jason will begin taking calls, and we'll get sixteen people setup on Survivor: NHL Playoffs island where their teams will compete until only one is left standing. If you want to be that final survivor in the NHL Playoffs, you have to call us tonight at 204-269-8636 to get entered into the contest so you can potentially win some awesome prizes! Jason is already a little envious of those grand prizes, but we'll discuss that all tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

I have had a few questions about Survivor: NHL Playoffs, and I want to stress that this contest is available to all listeners inside and outside of Winnipeg as we do use the mail to send prizes to winners, so make sure you're tuned in if you're listening outside of Winnipeg! You're more than welcome to participate in the contest! In saying that, I should note that we do have a few people who reached out via social media or email to inform us that they'll be travelling in places where cell phone usage in a car could cause legal problems, so we've granted them the option of texting us with the number they wish to choose. These texts will be added in the order they are received tonight, so don't think there's some advantage in that strategy.

If you live outside Winnipeg and want to listen, we have options! The new UMFM website's online streaming player works well 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. 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 Jason find out who the sixteen people are for the 2024 edition of Survivor: NHL Playoffs, and we want to wish everyone the best of luck in choosing a number with a random team. May the odds be forever in your favour tonight exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
