Team Canada’s men’s hockey team wrapped up the preliminary round and punched their ticket to the medal round this week. It gave us plenty to talk about on Winnipeg Sports Talk.
If you missed any of it, here are some of the top moments from the week so far:
Canada Into the Semis: Mike McIntyre Checks In from Milan
Canada survived a 4-3 overtime thriller over Czechia in the quarterfinals, and Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press joined us from outside the rink in Milan to break it all down.
Mike shared his perspective on the game, explained why Josh Morrissey wasn’t in the lineup, and passed along what Jon Cooper had to say after the dramatic win.
Canada is on to the semifinals, and we kicked off Wednesday’s show with a full breakdown of the win.
Andrew Paterson was joined by Michael Remis and Connor Hrabchak to dive into the biggest moments, what stood out tactically, and what it means heading into the medal round.
QB1 is locked in. Zach Collaros joined Hustler to discuss the Bombers’ aggressive offseason moves, the addition of OC Tommy Condell, key free-agent signings, and why the mission for 2026 is clear: bring another Grey Cup parade back to Winnipeg.
Olympic Curling Erupts Over “Double-Touch” Accusations
Sweden accused Canadian curlers of “double-touching” stones in a tense Olympic matchup, and the confrontation went viral. John Cullen joined us to break down what happened and why it’s become such a big story.
With the Manitoba Moose back from the All-Star break, we caught up with Tyrel Bauer to talk about his season, playing in Winnipeg, and what goes into those highlight-reel fights.
