# Hockey Wives

Hockey Wives is a Canadian documentary television series which debuted on March 18, 2015, on the W Network. In Québec, the series debuted on September 12, 2015, on the Séries+ (Mariées au hockey). The series follows a group of wives and girlfriends of professional hockey players, as they balance the highs and lows of the hockey world, their personal and social lives.

On May 5, 2015, the network announced that the series had been renewed for a second season.

On October 13, 2016, W confirmed the renewal for a third season, and on March 20, 2017, the full cast was revealed.

Season three premiered on April 19, 2017.

## Overview

Production for the first season of Hockey Wives was announced on July 17, 2014, in a press release issued by W Network's parent company, Corus Entertainment.

The cast of the third season includes:

* Maripier Morin (wife of Nürnberg Ice Tigers forward Brandon Prust)
* Emilie Blum (wife of Admiral Vladivostok defenseman Jonathon Blum)

Although based in cities all over the world, during the course of the professional hockey season their lives intersect and affect one another's. From wives who are new to the game, to those whose partners are Stanley Cup winning superstars or are nearing retirement, the women form a team of their own to support and encourage each other through personal and professional highs and lows.

## Reception

Following the series premiere in March 2015, the show quickly became the most watched series on W Network that year, with record ratings for the broadcaster. In addition, episodes of the series ranked as the top reality series on iTunes Canada after their initial broadcast.
