The Hockey Show - Episode 468

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns tonight with Teebz and Jason picking through the stories from the past couple of weeks as they bring you some of the big news stories along with some of the missed stories that mainstream media ignores. There are a handful of things that had to be discussed this week, so let's get rolling with tonight's preview!

Teebz and Jason discuss the mindblowing offer sheet by Carolina for Jesperi Kotkaniemi and try to determine which team is better off with Montreal opting not to match Carolina's offer. Following that deeper discussion about NHL economics and long-term strategy, the gents talk about the ten-year anniversary of the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl plane crash, the completely bonkers sports situation in Belarus and the IIHF handing down a virtual slap on the wrist for the President of the Belarussian Ice Hockey Association, the amazing concept embraced by Örebro over in the SEL, and the rebrand of the NWHL as they move to their new name of the Premier Hockey Federation. It's an interesting show with some good discussion as Teebz and Jason break down these stories, 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 go over financial insanity, long-term financial planning, a major loss ten years ago, one country's insane situation, the weak response from hockey's governing body, an amazing effort by one team to make working and playing for them more normal, new names that make no sense, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
