The Hockey Show - Episode 360

The Hockey Show, Canada' only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back tonight as we near another milestone! I was looking at that number above - Episode 360 - and it dawned on me we're one month of shows away from celebrating the seven complete seasons of The Hockey Show and going into an eighth season. That's pretty remarkable considering everyone we've met, interviewed, chatted with, and welcomed to our world over the years. We've been through an NHL lockout, we've seen plenty of trades and free agency moves, we've witnessed graduations, and we've seen players retire. Seven years of radio work has been pretty darned rewarding, and we're nearing the precipice of starting the eighth season! Stay tuned for that!

Beans and I are going over all the news stories over the last month as our Summer of Interviews takes a week off. There has been significant news generated from all over the hockey world since we last checked in mid-July, so it's time to get back to basics and work through these stories. Among the topics tonight will be the inactivity with the RFAs in the NHL, Calgary got a new arena using significantly more public funds than had been previously proposed, the Brandon Wheat Kings and Winnipeg Ice finalized their coaching staffs for the upcoming WHL season, Tampa Bay puts all of its eggs into the Vasilevskiy basket, the Islanders appeared poised to move into the Belmont area, and we'll squeeze in anything else that seems relevant on tonight's show! It's going to be a busy hour, so please join us at 5:30pm CT for all the chatter!

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.

Having lost faith in Facebook, I spend far less time on that site for good reasons. In saying that, you can still email all show questions and comments to hockeyshow@umfm.com! Tweet me anytime with questions you may have by hitting me up at @TeebzHBIC on Twitter! We're here to listen to you, so make your voice heard!

Tonight, Teebz and Beans talk unsigned players, signed agreements for arenas, newly-signed coaches, expensive contracts that have been signed, and much more only on The Hockey Show found exclusively on 101.5 UMFM, on the UMFM app, on the UMFM.com web stream!
