The Cross-Check NHL Show

On today's episode Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire take a look at what's next for some of the teams eliminated from the first round of the NHL playoffs, including the Florida Panthers, Minnesota Wild, and Nashville Predators, before transitioning into the Cross-Check segment to dissect the "Best Toronto Maple Leafs team ever" after their embarrassing collapse against the Montreal Canadiens.

After debating what to do with Mitch Marner, the hosts look at the second round in progress, make picks for each series, and talk about how scary the Colorado Avalanche are.

Finally, they finish off the podcast with the Pop Culture Roulette segment, where they talk some D&D, and Ellie Kemper maybe being racist?

Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire dig in on the Pittsburgh Penguins' third straight unceremonious first round knockout, and the waning playoff impacts of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, not to mention goaltender Tristan Jarry.

The hosts follow that up with an interview with Matt Henderson, Oilers fan and blogger, who pulls no punches in his assessment of why the Edmonton Oilers continue to fail with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in their primes, while railing against the NHL's officiating as well.

Finally, we end the podcast with a little Star Wars talk!

Andrew Berkshire and Mary Clarke dive into the handful of first round exits from the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs, beginning with Jordan Binnington and the St. Louis Blues, who were swept out of the postseason by the high-flying Colorado Avalanche. Next, in the Cross-Check of the Week, the two go all in on the Edmonton Oilers, who are wasting the prime years of Connor McDavid with their upsetting mediocrity after the team’s sweep at the hands of the Winnipeg Jets. Then, Andrew and Mary look at the Washington Capitals, who were handled by the Boston Bruins with ease, and discuss Alex Ovechkin’s future in DC. And finally, Andrew and Mary end the episode with some pop culture talk.

The North Division has finally showed up to the playoffs, and hosts Mary Clarke (For The Win contributor) and Andrew Berkshire (Montreal Gazette analyst) break down the shocking results from the first game between the Edmonton Oilers and Winnipeg Jets. Can Connor Hellebuyck hold off Connor McDavid again?

Cuing up the most anticipated series in years for Canada; The Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens face off for the first time in the playoffs since 1979, and the hosts relay what they're most excited to see.

To continue breaking down the North Division, NHL analyst Rachel Doerrie stops by to talk about why this Maple Leafs team is different, while also touching on her enduring respect and admiration for Taylor Hall after working with him in New Jersey, and why the Golden Knights find it so tough to beat the Minnesota Wild.

Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire break down the early results of the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs, with the most entertaining game so far being the ignition of a true rivalry between the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning. The Minnesota Wild and New York Islanders shocked their favored first round opponents in the Vegas Golden Knights and Pittsburgh Penguins, but can they actually score the upsets? It took six games into the NHL's postseason for any team to register a multi-goal lead at any point in the game, with the Carolina Hurricanes being the first. Should we expect the playoffs to remain this tightly contested in a first round that appears to have some mismatches?

On this edition of the Cross-Check NHL Show, your hosts Andrew Berkshire and Mary Clarke dig into the Tom Wilson conundrum, going over his history, comments from former players about the incident against the New York Rangers, the Washington Capitals' enabling culture, and the NHL Department of Player's Safety's outright refusal to protect its players. We also talk about the Rangers' strong statement about the Department of Player Safety and George Parros in particular, but unfortunately we recorded before the Rangers turned around and fired Jeff Gorton and John Davidson, which leaves us with only more questions.

Also on today's episode, we talk with actor and director Jay Baruchel about the legacy of Goon as it approaches it’s 10 year anniversary, Wyatt Russell and Goon 2, how he feels about his Montreal Canadiens, and what the NHL needs to do to become a modern league that draws in new fans.
