The Hockey Show - Episode 466

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns tonight sans Jenna as she's in Edmonton getting smarter. It won't be long before you can hear her again, though. As stated last week, she will be doing the colour commentary for the MacEwan Griffins, so you can hear her on all the Canada West TV broadcasts that the Griffins do from their rink in Edmonton. Tonight, I am pleased to have Jason Pchajek return to the show as he and I will break down some major hockey stories, so let's get to this!

Get yourself settled in and comfortable because Teebz and Jason are going through some hockey news. They celebrate Jason's and Evan's return as the broadcast team for Bisons men's hockey before discussing the records set by Hilary Knight and Brianna Decker, and why those records should be celebrated by more hockey fans when you consider what they've accomplished. They chat about how women's hockey on the international stage has seen quite a number of players move on from the game, and that's created some competitive imbalances in the game again. Teebz brings up the terrible job that the TSN broadcast team of Rod and Cheryl are doing, and Jason has thoughts. Both hosts tackle the subject of Mitchell Miller being signed by the USHL's Tri-City Storm and why that's a terrible idea. They close out the show discussing the Arizona Coyotes' arena problems and why a specific Texas city would make the most sense if the team was forced to move. We go through all of these stories in detail, so make sure you tune in at 5:30pm CT on 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

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 Jason talk achievements and longevity, retirements and imbalance, putting the required work in to get better-than-mediocre results, apologies and second chances, poorly-run franchises and potential new homes, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
