The Hockey Show - Episode 192

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced hockey radio show, hits the airwaves tonight talking all things ball hockey as Winnipeg gears up for two major tournaments this weekend! It's funny that I think back to my days as a kid on the cold, snowy streets where we would battle nightly with a rickety old net and a frozen tennis ball, and now we have a national tournament that embraces the street hockey mentality and another that embraces the organized hockey idea. If only I could go back and tell my youthful self what was to come!

Kevin Wilson, the man behind the FXR Cup, will join me tonight as I navigate the airwaves alone! Kevin will have two of last year's FXR Cup Champions with him tonight, and we'll talk about this year's tournament, some of the great prizing available, and who may challenge for the FXR Cup title! Of course, we'll also chat about the NHL Playoffs, the San Jose Sharks making their first appearance in the Stanley Cup Final, Game Seven of the Lightning-Penguins series, Matthews vs. Laine, and much more tonight! These guys know their hockey, and they'll be filling in for Beans who will be working a job late into the evening, and filling in for TJ who will be off to a conference in Calgary! Good luck to these fine gentlemen on these excursions!

The phones are wide-open for any question you may have about the FXR Cup tonight so give us a call at (204) 269-8636 (269-UMFM) if you wanna get in on the discussion! Make sure you tune your radio dial in the Winnipeg region to 101.5 on your FM dial or listen live between 5:30pm and 6:30pm CT on your web-enabled device at the UMFM webpage! Tweet me anytime with questions you may have by hitting me up at @TeebzHBIC on Twitter. You can also post some stuff to Facebook if you use the "Like" feature, and I always have crazy stuff posted there that doesn't make it to the blog or show. We're talking FXR Cup on The Hockey Show only on 101.5 UMFM!
