Gary Bettman shows the NHL has learned almost nothing from the Chicago Blackhawks coverup

Author: Locked On Podcast Network, Andrew Berkshire, Mary Clarke November 2, 2021 Duration: 58:14
With the fallout of the Brad Aldrich abuse scandal that the Chicago Blackhawks covered up and allowed to continue still developing, Gary Bettman held a press conference and promptly stuck his foot in his mouth multiple times. Andrew Berkshire and Mary Clarke attempt to go through the transcript as it's unfolding and react to the league's callousness. Onto more fun stuff, the hosts rave about the hot starts from superstars like Connor McDavid and Alex Ovechkin, and lament the awful situation the Blackhawks have put Marc-Andre Fleury in. The Toronto Maple Leafs have extended Morgan Rielly to a giant contract spanning 8 years, until he's 35-years-old. Is it a good idea? Can they survive as a team with five players taking up 59% of their cap space? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! BetOnline AG There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.

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.
