The GOAT is back in business giving the Prince George Cougars their broadcast voice.
The city’s Western Hockey League team has renewed its radio broadcast partnership with FM 94.3 The GOAT for the 2021 season, which starts a week from Saturday when the Cats face the Kamloops Blazers in Kamloops.
“We are proud to call 94.3 The GOAT our broadcast partner once again, and I know our fans will appreciate tuning in to follow our games during this very unusual season,” said Cougars vice president, business Andy Beesley. “It has been extraordinarily challenging to navigate through this pandemic for all of us, and The GOAT’s support of our team have never wavered.”
Fraser Rodgers is about to begin his fourth season as the play-by-play voice of the Cougars and he’ll be getting support during the broadcasts from Hartley Miller, the dean of Prince George sportscasters, who has served as an analyst on Cougar game nights the past seven seasons.
The Cougars’ radio coverage will be also online at www.myprincegeorgenow.com.
“Vista Radio continues to be a proud partner of the Prince George Cougars,” said Kyle Wightman, Vista Radio BC North regional manager. “The Cougars are a huge part of the fabric of this community and we pride ourselves in including them in our commitment to our Northern B.C. audience.”
The Cougars will play a 24-game schedule all against B.C. Division opponents, in either Kamloops of Kelowna.
The Cats had their second practice at Sandman Centre in Kamloops on Friday afternoon since being cleared of COVID protocols on Thursday.
