The Hockey Show - Episode 110

The Hockey Show, Canada's only campus-produced hockey radio show, is back tonight with a special guest... maybe? We're still trying to nail down a phone number on where to reach this gentleman, but he's a guy we're thrilled to have on the show. He played in the WHL, the NHL, the AHL, and has returned to the WHL for some work behind the bench. Oh, and he won a couple of Stanley Cups while he played in the NHL. We'll also have friend of the show Jeremie Gauvin in-studio with us as Columbus as the night off for school-related activities.

The man wearing #37 for the Tampa Bay Lightning is defenceman Brad Lukowich, and he'll be on the show for the first-half of the hour! Brad won the Stanley Cup with both Dallas and Tampa Bay, and suited up for the New York Islanders, New Jersey Devils, San Jose Sharks, and Vancouver Canucks during his NHL career as well. His hockey stops also included the CHL's Fort Worth Brahmas, the IHL's Michigan K-Wings, and the AHL's Texas Stars! He played 658 regular-season NHL games, amassing 23 goals and 90 assists, and added one goal and five assists in 71 NHL playoff games. As seen in the picture, he was part of the handshake line that saw the Calgary Flames on the wrong side of the ledger in 2004! We'll talk to him about his career in 30-minutes-or-less as he has a class he needs to be at in Lethbridge for 5pm MT or 6pm CT!

We'll also have Jeremie in as we talk about officiating once more. Clearly, there are some new rules and some news stories we'll go over with him, and we'll talk to him about his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs, where they'll finish, what to do about this perceived goaltending controversy, and much more! It'll be a busy night on The Hockey Show, and we'll even work in some chatter about Pledge-O-Rama as well as it kicks off tomorrow night!

The phone lines will be closed with Mr. Lukowich appearing on the show tonight. However, we're on the air at 5:30pm so tune in for all the action! We're on 101.5 UMFM on your radio dial in the Winnipeg region or you can listen live between 5:30pm and 6:30pm CT on your web-enabled device at the UMFM webpage! You can tweet us anytime you like by hitting us 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.
