The Hockey Show - Episode 656

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back on the air from the UMFM studios for one reason only tonight: the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs. You may have heard that the brackets were filled out last night thanks to the Montreal Canadiens being the last team to get into the playoffs, and that means that we're one step closer to the Greatest Hockey Radio Contest - unverified, for now - in the history of all broadcast sound! If you're wondering what I'm talking about, it sounds like you need to tune into the fun tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT!

Tonight, Teebz and Jason take calls from interested parties who want to take part in the 2025 edition of Survivor: NHL Playoffs! I had written about the contest here when it comes to rules for the contest, and tonight is when we get sixteen people to choose numbers to find out which team is assigned to each entrant! As numbers start to be removed from the board, the chances of landing a top-seeded team may increase or decrease depending on which teams remain so you're going to have to weigh the odds if you want one of the superpowers. What I can tell you is that if you call between 5:30pm and 6:30 CT at (204) 269-8636, your chances of getting into the Survivor: NHL Playoffs contest will never be better! Settle in, tune into the show, get your phone out tonight for Survivor: NHL Playoffs on 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 participate, you're still welcome to enter the contest! 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! And because both Teebz and Jason are on the butterfly app where things are less noisy, you can find Teebz here and Jason here on Bluesky!

Tonight, Teebz and Jason get sixteen people registered for the 2025 edition of Survivor: NHL Playoffs heard on The Hockey Show exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
