The Hockey Show - Episode 294

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, sees one of its two usual co-hosts off conducting business and affairs. Teebz will fly solo tonight with Beans conducting business elsewhere, so we'll put the exit interviews on hold this week as we await the final second-round series to end. With no Survivor: NHL Playoffs (brought to you by Lays and their Show Your Emotions contest) to discuss, what exactly is happening on the ol' hockey radio show tonight?

Tonight, I'll be talking to this handsome dude! That is Mark Taraschuk, defenceman for the Turnbull Cup-winning and Anavet Cup-winning Steinbach Pistons of the MJHL, and he and his teammates leave tomorrow for the 2018 RBC Cup being held in Chilliwack, BC where the elite National Junior A hockey teams from across Canada will gather to determine the best of the best in this nation! We'll talk to Mark about his career with Steinbach, his time in the WHL, being a two-time midget hockey champion, the Humboldt bus crash, having a sister who is one helluva hockey player, his billet family, life as a semi-pro fisherman, and more as we learn all about one of the Pistons' best players down the stretch and through the MJHL playoffs! It should be a solid show with lots of laughs, so make sure you tune in at 5:30pm for this one!
