Canucks, Flyers make much-needed changes and fallout continues from Pionk/Spezza incident

On this episode of The Cross-Check NHL Show, Mary Clarke and Andrew Berkshire break down the plethora of coaching and management news across the league. The Vancouver Canucks finally made changes in firing Jim Benning and Travis Green, while bringing in Bruce Boudreau. Though these moves may be a little too late to save the Canucks' season as it stands now, a lot rides on the team's upcoming choice of general manager. Mere hours after the Canucks management news, the Philadelphia Flyers fired Alain Vigneault and Michel Therrien in the midst of a nine-game losing streak. As the Flyers attempt to get back on track to have a successful season, what should they do at the head coaching position with names such as Rick Tocchet and John Tortorella hanging around. Plus, Neal Pionk and Jason Spezza engaged in some dangerous tomfoolery in a recent game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Winnipeg Jets. With Pionk already serving a two-game suspension for kneeing Rasmus Sandin, will Spezza also sit for his retaliation run on the Jets' defenseman? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
