  • The Cross-Check NHL’s Show’s final episode!
    Jul 1 2022

    Hosts Andrew Berkshire and Mary Clarke say their goodbyes with the final episode of The Cross-Check NHL Show! But before then, there’s hockey news to talk about, as the Minnesota Wild traded Kevin Fiala to the Los Angeles Kings. Fiala’s addition to the Kings bolsters an up-and-coming team, but his departure from the Wild will leave a huge hole.

    Next, Nathan MacKinnon and the Colorado Avalanche are Stanley Cup champions, but the star has a bit of a diva problem. MacKinnon’s bullying of his teammates on their health choices isn’t the reason the Avalanche have won the Stanley Cup, but it’s clear their hyper-competitive nature is a big drive for this team.

    Plus, Hometown Hockey at Sportsnet is no more. What can be done to fill the void left behind and what can Sportsnet and the NHL do to bring in a new generation of hockey fans?

    Finally, Andrew and Mary send off the show with one final pop culture talk ahead of the Stranger Things season 4 finale. Thank you to all the listeners and watchers of The Cross-Check NHL Show for sticking with us through the last 16 months!

  • The Colorado Avalanche are your Stanley Cup Champions, and we say goodbye
    Jun 28 2022

    After defeating the Tampa Bay Lightning in six games, the Colorado Avalanche have won the Stanley Cup! It's been a long time coming for a team that's been a favourite over the last few years, but the Avalanche finally got over the hump, with Cale Makar winning the Conn Smythe Trophy.

    For the Lightning, it's their third straight year in the final, with 46 playoff wins in that stretch, just two shy of the first threepeat since the New York Islanders of the early 1980's. What is their legacy going to look like? Will they be remembered for having a championship pedigree that refused to die, or for their antics at the end of the game that left a sour taste?

    Barry Trotz has announced that he won't be coaching next year, which leaves the Winnipeg Jets a little high and dry. What's next for them, and the multitude of coaching vacancies left?

  • Kadri puts Bolts on the brink, NHL Award drama, & are the Panthers panicking?
    Jun 24 2022

    Mary is away on vacation so Laura Saba from Locked on Canadiens joins the show to break down this week's events.


    Nazem Kadri's overtime thriller in his first game back has put the Tampa Bay Lightning one game away from elimination, and the Colorado Avalanche one win away from their first Stanley Cup since 2001. Can the Lightning extend this series?


    The NHL Awards have been given out, and with them comes mild controversy over bad votes, media blocks voting certain ways, and just bad awards. Is the Montreal media out of touch for ignoring Auston Matthews for the Hart and Carey Price for the Masterton?


    The Florida Panthers didn't renew Andrew Brunette as head coach after working under the interim tag all season long, instead electing to hire Paul Maurice. Could things go off the rails for the Panthers next year?
