The Hockey Show - Episode 448

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, hits the UMFM airwaves tonight with another show where Teebz and Jenna sort out all the crazy news from around the hockey world. We joked prior to this show about how we should just call it The COVID-19 Show since everything in hockey is affected by this, so you likely know on what the main stories of tonight's show will center. That being said, it's a busy show with some fun and crazy stories, so let's get this thing rolling!

On tonight's show, Teebz and Jenna discuss Nova Scotia shutting down the Women's World Hockey Championship and why it's the right thing to do despite the outrage seen online, how the Canadian Hockey League's three conferences are handling the COVID situation with seasons coming to a close, the business of hockey rears its ridiculously ugly face once more as the NHL toys with ads on jerseys, the Calgary Flames and the city of Calgary need to figure out who is paying for cost overruns on their new arena, Patrick Marleau gets some congratulations from The Hockey Show, the Jets can't beat the Oilers, the Leafs can't be anyone right now, some AHL news from the west coast, and something to make everyone feel old! It's a busy show as we dig into these stories, so make sure you tune in on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com at 5:30pm CT!

We're still pumping St. Adolphe in order to help their efforts to bring hockey back in October. The St. Adolphe Community Club has started a crowdfunding effort on Amilia to help raise some money. The cool part is that if you donate $50 or more, not only are you helping St. Adolphe reach their goal so they can make repairs, upgrades, and improvements, but you'll also receive a tax receipt as well! Make sure you check out their website, their Facebook page, and follow both the St. Adolphe Twitter account and Instagram account for all the lastest news on their fundraising efforts and the repairs to the rink!

Where's the best place can you hear tonight's 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, so if you want to stream the show I'd recommend Radio Garden to do that as it works nicely with Safari. If you're more of an app person, we recommend you use the TuneIn app found on the App Store or Google Play Store. 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 and Jenna look at COVID outrage, COVID insanity, great achievements, terrible ideas, poor planning, winning, losing, new places, new faces, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
