The Hockey Wives are back with a brand new game. Some of their husbands are gunning for the Stanley Cup, while others are letting their six packs slide as they head out on their yachts for the summer. But they can't kick back for long. Free Agency is just around the corner when shocking trades and contract surprises can rock the league - who will be offered a contract and who will be left waiting for the call?

This season on Hockey Wives the ladies behind some of hockey's biggest stars bring their compelling stories to the screen. There are a lot of changes in store for the families - surprising trades, nuptials, new contracts, new babies, difficult moves to new countries, painful goodbyes, injury and heartbreak. Life moves quickly when married to the game, but these ladies lace up their skates and stick-handle their lives through yet another grueling hockey season.

Executive Producers for Hockey Wives are Julie Bristow President & CEO BGM, Claire Adams, Head of Content, BGM, Carli Posner and Megan Sanchez-Warner. John MacDonald is the Executive Vice President of Television and Head of Women's and Family Television for Corus Entertainment and Kelly Shouldice is Director of Original Programming for Women's and Family Television.
