Celebrating Luke Prokop, the Carey Price conundrum, and expansion draft madness

Author: Locked On Podcast Network, Andrew Berkshire, Mary Clarke July 20, 2021 Duration: 1:00:15
Andrew Berkshire has returned from vacation and rejoins Mary Clarke after a wild weekend of NHL news. First up, the pair are overjoyed to discuss Nashville Predators prospect Luke Prokop becoming the first gay hockey player on an active NHL contract and what it means for the league going forward. Next, the Montreal Canadiens have exposed Carey Price for the expansion draft in a surprising move, but will the Seattle Kraken take him with his hefty cap hit and his reported injuries? The Canadiens were just three wins away from winning the Stanley Cup but injury news to Shea Weber and the likely loss of Phillip Danault has made for an unexpected teardown. Andrew and Mary also break down the upcoming expansion draft, starting with the Ryan Ellis trade to the Philadelphia Flyers and what he brings to a team looking to jump back into contention. Which teams stand to lose the most in the expansion draft? Who are the best players available for Seattle to take? Finally, Andrew and Mary end the show talking the season finale of Loki and the recent release of Marvel’s Black Widow movie. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

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.
