The Hockey Show - Episode 502

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns to the studio tonight as there has been a pile of hockey stories coming out of the Manitoba capital. The Winnipeg Jets had a very interesting end to the season with players speaking up, a GM downplaying things, and coaches not being fired, but no longer being employed. There was a pretty amazing tournament played by a number of highly-skilled women this past weekend, two countries are making national team players think twice, the Stanley Cup Playoffs started, and a pile of other stories! It's another jam-packed show with a ton of topics to discuss!

The guy to the left has a lot of tough decisions to make, so Teebz and Jason will weigh in with their thoughts on what Kevin Cheveldayoff did to earn a three-year contract extension, the vacant head coach and assistant coaches positions behind the bench, the various comments by players made to the media, and how this sets up what appears to be a rather critical summer for the Jets' general manager. Beyond that, we'll talk about Sweden and Finland asking its players to stand with its citizens in not playing in the KHL, we'll wrap up an incredible Female World Sport School Challenge, we'll chat about the opening games of the NHL's Stanley Cup Playoffs, and we get Jenna on the phone to talk a little bit about her MacEwan Griffins teammate Jordyn Reimer whose life was tragically cut short by a drunk driver. We'll fill the hour pretty easily once again, so make sure you're listening at 5:30pm CT so you can hear The Hockey Show on 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

If you live outside Winnipeg and want to participate, have no fear! The new UMFM website's online streaming player is pretty awesome if you want to listen online so you cnn call in for the contest as well. 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 remember Jordyn Reimer before they get into a chat about unhappy players, oblivious general managers, potential coaches, strong stands, amazing events, big games, and much more exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
