The Hockey Show - Episode 487

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns tonight with all sorts of stories from across the hockey world! Teebz and Jenna look at a number of stories from across the globe once again as they dive into the deep end of the hockey chatter. If you're not looking past the NHL for news stories, both good and not-so-good, you're missing the bigger hockey picture! That's why we're here as we bring those stories to the forefront, so let's dive into the action tonight on The Hockey Show!

While Alex Ovechkin may have carried the Olympic torch for a past Olympiad, his Russian hockey-playing counterparts may have trouble getting into China. Teebz and Jenna break down China's very stringent tresting policies they're employing for the arriving athletes as the Olympics are a mere three weeks away, and this may affect a number of hockey players from the KHL after their widespread COVID-19 outbreak. Beyond that, they discuss Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley making uniform changes and other Vegas news, the Tempe city council decision on the new arena and entertainment complex proposed by the Coyotes, Gila River Arena moving on from the Coyotes, Savannah, Georgia struggling with their arena, Eric Staal's comeback for an Olympic roster spot, the Regina Cougars showing that 15 is enough, and why the Canada West schedule may do more harm than good. It's a busy show with lots of chatter, so make sure you're tuned 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 Jenna chat about potential challenges for Olympians, new clothes, Monopoly money, renovations, comebacks, the will to win, the schedule that kills dreams, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
