...od on the defensive blue line, still dressed in his shirt and tie from the game, but a warmup jacket had replaced his suit jacket. He stood about two FEET from the boards with stick in hand. The players lined up on the opposing blue line in full equipment. On command, the player had to skate down...
...tion. 10 takeaways: 1. I actually thought Cory Schneider was very good - he stopped 31-34 (.912SV%) - and gave the Devils a chance to get their FEET underneath themselves, but it's about time he gets a night off. It doesn't have to be next game, but he's played 19 in a row and that's a lot for...
...Sabres lug the mail through rain, sleet, heat, and winter storms. While a wild, windy lake effect snow making machine was dumping between 5 to 6.5 FEET of snow on South Buffalo and the southern Erie, Chattauqua, and Cattaraugus counties, the Sabres were melting the ice inside the barn with their ...
...ce an entire line to the Zone Start Gods then the others need to perform when they are given the opportunities. A lot of this is going to fall at the FEET of Rookie Leon Draisaitl. He plays in the offensive zone more than any other forward and has just 3 even strength points. I’m not advocatin...
...e some easier matchups. - Detroit has a lot of young forwards and they like to skate you into the ground. A key for Columbus will be to keep their FEET moving because if they get caught flat footed they'll probably end up taking a penalty trying to slow these guys down. With the way their penalty...
Be sure to 'like' Hockeybuzz on Facebook! The town of Toronto sure looks good in snow. The Hall of Fame building epically stands a few FEET from me with giant banners hanging representing not only the inductees, but four of the best game changing players the game has ever known. Each defines what...
...ce he reached Pro. One thing we can say for certain is that neither are "Big" goalies in an era when teams emphasize size in net. Both are close to 6 FEET tall and about 185lbs. Additionally, despite decent W/L records both were below .900 in their Jr leagues when they were drafted. Today both men a...
...ne. In notching another assist, he now has 9 points (2G, 7A) in 9 games in November. I think the formula is pretty simple really. He is moving his FEET in the offensive zone to make shooting lanes and throwing the puck toward the net whenever he can find a path to get it there. 2) Fancy stats....
...ares just looks off. I honestly don’t know what it is right now with JT but he simply looks off his game and at times he simply isn’t moving his FEET. He also took two awful penalties. I know I’m being picky as his numbers are still over a point a game but the top line just doesn’t look g...
... in this game were careless tripping infractions. The other was a needless Michael Del Zotto inteference penalty in the first period on a hit several FEET away from the puck. Columbus' Corey Tropp returned the favor with an undisciplined tripping penalty behind the Flyers net in the final minute of ...
...150,000 per year). The Flyers felt they were getting back a player who could give them power play AND penalty kill minutes and was quicker on his FEET. Thus far this first quarter, Umberger has given them quality time on the PK but he actually looks slower than Hartnell on the ice. The speed ...
...away and Bogosian not only caught him but did a sweep with his stick to knock the puck to the corner. Also, Bogo was aware enough to get back on his FEET and careen away from his net and taking out Hutchinson. The point I made last night about this game and a few others is that the Jets are co...
...me superstar in the sport in my opinion. I am not sure I subscribe to the idea that Parise not being in the lineup can help explain how dead on their FEET this team has played. Even previous to leaving the lineup in the third period of that Pittsburgh game, Parise was struggling to get much accompli...
...ght in front of him but somehow was in a position to only kick at it instead of using his stick to finish a nice pass. He also rang the post from 15 FEET out on a rebound with a gaping net in front of him. But I think the biggest gain Tuesday could be the HUGE clue to chemistry and roles. The p...
...es van Riemsdyk tipping one home for his seventh goal of the season, and by all means putting the nail in any coffin you thought wasn’t already six FEET under. Dennis Seidenberg scored the B’s only goal of the night late in the second, while Peter Holland score the Leafs’ sixth goal of the...
...n Vermette, hovering unattended just inside the blue-line. Vermette, the Coyotes first centre option on the first PP unit, shot the puck a good 20 FEET wide. The puck careened off the boards to the Dallas player Ryan Garbutt who went on a breakaway and scored a nice goal. 20 FEET wide. An NHL...
...w the call, but neither did. * Then again, in overtime, on the last Ottawa rush before Vancouver ended it, Shawn Matthias tackled Turris about 5 FEET inside the Vancouver blue line and rode him like a sled right to the boards behind Ryan Miller, with no call. The Canucks won it on the ensuing ...
...hen someone is chasing you and you don’t have time to think, you just kind of go. Maybe we have to take that mentality, there’s a skater a couple FEET behind you ready to take the puck so you have less time to think about it, just go in and make a move.” The move the Wings would most like t...
...behind into the boards by some hero who thinks he is proving something or another. I tell my own guys that when they go in, go in strong, with strong FEET and be prepared to get hit from someone who has either never been coached properly or just doesn't care. I tell my sons, Max and Mccauley, especi...
... but against the Rangers I saw 2 things that raised flags for me. First was the hooking penalty he took because he wasn't able or willing to move his FEET. At first I dubbed it lazy then I saw red flag number 2. The second and perhaps more telling sign of injury was when a puck was thrown right in f...
