Avalanche win game one, Bruce Cassidy feels lucky in Vegas, and Conn Smythe contenders

Game One of the 2022 Stanley Cup Final delivered on every bit of promise we all hoped it would. A dominant performance by the Colorado Avalanche still wasn't enough to keep the reigning champion Tampa Bay Lightning on the ground, as the game needed to be decided in overtime. Who wins the series? Kinda feels like we all do. Bruce Cassidy has been snapped up just over a week after the Boston Bruins fired him, he'll step onto the bench for the Vegas Golden Knights, looking to replicate the effect he had on the Bruins. Is John Tortorella a good fit for the Philadelphia Flyers? No matter what you may think, it looks like it's happening. Who are the leaders for the Conn Smythe this year? Can a non-star player sneak in and win the trophy? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Tune in twice a week for The Cross-Check NHL Show, where hosts Andrew Berkshire and Mary Clarke bring their distinct perspectives as NHL writers to the forefront. This isn't just a recap of last night's scores; it's a deep, analytical dive into the stories that are actually shaping the league. Every Tuesday, they take the week's most talked-about narratives-whether it's a surprising trade rumor, a team's sudden slump, or a player's breakout performance-and hold them up to the light. They cross-check popular opinion against their own sharp observations from watching the games and, crucially, against what the underlying statistics reveal. You'll hear conversations that move beyond hot takes to find the substance underneath. Then, on Thursdays, the scope widens with insightful interviews. Andrew and Mary are joined by a rotating roster of special guests, from analysts and insiders to former players, who are among the smartest minds in hockey. These discussions provide even greater context and expertise on the evolving landscape of the sport. Produced as part of the Locked On Podcast Network, this podcast is for fans who crave a more thoughtful and nuanced understanding of the NHL, where instinct meets evidence in every episode.
