Moose Rinkside

Great news for Winnipeg fans, and cable TV owners who have access to CityTV Winnipeg on their cable packages. The Manitoba Moose, in partnership with CityTV have announced the start of a new program, starting in January. Here it is, fresh from the press release:

"The Manitoba Moose, in partnership with Citytv, are pleased to announce the launch of a new television series called Moose Rinkside. The show will run each Saturday at 5:00 PM on Citytv beginning Saturday, January 5th for 18 episodes or the balance of the Moose season.


Moose Rinkside will focus not only on the Manitoba Moose and its players each week, but also on the American Hockey League and the game in general. The program will take the viewer inside the Moose locker room to give fans a rare look into the lives of its players not only before puck drops but after the final whistle blows. It will go between the boards by “mic’ing up” numerous individuals involved in the game, including players, coaches, and even American Hockey League referees. Each week, Head Coach Scott Arniel will talk about his team in an exclusive conversation with host Scott Brown. Arniel and assistants Brad Berry and Rick St. Croix will also hand out a tips each week in a segment called “Skills n’ Drills”. Members of Manitoba’s hockey media will also discuss the hottest topics of the day from the Moose, to the AHL, the NHL, and the game of hockey."
