The Hockey Show - Episode 401

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back tonight with an informational show as we chat with a returning guest about some of the new stuff you might see in stores and on players, some of the challenges he may face in his job, and a few other topics that will give you a perspective on how much this virus may affect hockey from his perspective. I think this is an interesting topic based on the NHL's announcement in returning, so let's hear how one person will navigate the "new normal" if and when the season gets underway in 2020-21!

Returning to the show today is none other than Bisons women's hockey equipment guru Mat Relf! We get the lowdown from Mat on the new line of CCM equipment made specifically for women and how it will be better suited for the ladies than the traditional equipment they've been forced to wear. We'll also talk to Mat about how his job as equipment manager will be affected by the whole COVID-19 craziness, some of the changes he's had to make so far and what he anticipates will change moving forward, some Bisons news from inside the hallways of Wayne Fleming Arena, and more! Mat's always a great guest, and I'm happy to have back tonight to talk about all this and more at 5:30pm CT on 101.5 FM!

Where's the best place can you hear the show if you're outside Winnipeg or not near a radio, you ask? 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.

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 goes one-on-one with Bisons women's hockey equipment manager Mat Relf as we talk big changes to equipment, major changes to safety protocols and procedures, being affected by these changes in a big way, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
