NHL’s Olympic dream is no more and the definitive ranking of the MCU

NHL’s Olympic dream is no more and the definitive ranking of the MCU

Author: Locked On Podcast Network, Andrew Berkshire, Mary Clarke December 23, 2021 Duration: 51:34
On this episode of The Cross-Check NHL Show, the NHL has officially withdrawn from the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing as COVID-19 has disrupted too much of the league’s season. Though no surprise to anyone, hosts Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire say their final goodbyes to NHLers at the Olympics and look ahead to the women’s tournament. Next, the Calgary Flames are embroiled in a bit of arena drama as the city of Calgary and the team ownership are at a standstill on the new arena’s cost. Though not as dire as the Arizona Coyotes situation, another arena problem doesn’t look good for the NHL overall. And finally, Mary and Andrew create the definitive ranking of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to close out the show before the holiday. 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.
