The Hockey Show - Episode 523

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, returns tonight with an annual tradition that often proves that anything can happen as the Canada West Hockey Preview Show is upon us! For one night, we'll spare you of Hockey Canada's madness and other goofy NHL preseason chatter in order to focus on the western conference of U SPORTS hockey. With UBC raising a banner for women's hockey and Alberta raising yet another banner for men's hockey, can they replicate the success they had one season ago? We shall discuss!

With the Canada West Coach's Poll results revealed on Wednesday, Teebz and Jason will compare their own notes in determining placements to that of the coach's poll as the two hosts try to figure out who finishes where. The hosts will talk about who is playing where this season as recruiting classes were large for some programs, they examine preseason results to validate their beliefs, and they'll come up with placements for all nine teams in both men's and women's hockey as the nine Canada West schools look to add a National Championship banner to the rafters of their respective arenas. And just because we like to drop teasers, there will be a major announcement at some point during the show that may be of interest. It may not affect everyone, but it needs to be brought to everyone's attention. All of that will happen tonight on The Hockey Show at 5:30pm CT so we hope you join us on one of 101.5 FM, Channel 718 on MTS TV, or via UMFM.com!

If you live outside Winnipeg and want to listen, we have options! 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 have a major announcement as well as breaking down the Canada West Conference for both men's and women's hockey as we try to figure out who will finish where based on recruiting classes, results seen this season, and departures from the programs on the annual Canada West Hockey Preview Show heard exclusively on 101.5 UMFM and on the UMFM.com web stream!
