St. Louis Radio: WXOS Expands Coverage of Hockey, Soccer

WXOS 101. ESPN – St. Louis’ Sports Station – has added new programs to their show lineup, focusing on two sports St. Louis fans and radio listeners are clamoring for – St. Louis Hockey Central and Barclays Premier League Now:

St. Louis Hockey Central  will feed the insatiable hockey hunger of Blues fans. St. Louis is one of America’s great hockey towns with routine sell-outs at Scottrade Center - the passion for the Blues is deep and well-earned by one of the NHL’s original expansion teams.
                                     
St. Louis Post-Dispatch Blues beat reporter Jeremy Rutherford, who covers “The Coolest Game on Earth” like no one else, will be joined on-air by 101ESPN’s Dan Bettlach.  
                                                 
Every Wednesday night at 7:00 pm, Rutherford and Bettlach will drop the puck for an hour of the best NHL talk in town.  From dazzling offensive displays to scoring performances in net, all aspects of the 82-game march to the Stanley Cup playoffs will be chronicled. The new Blues Hockey show will feature player interviews with fan favorites, analysis from media in opposing cities, and insider information unavailable anywhere else.

With this week’s debut, St. Louis Hockey Central will be a Regular Season show, with the potential to follow the Blues into the NHL playoffs.
