... or a GM. You're a ref and a former player. What would you know about finding players and putting a team together?" My blunt response: "I am three FEET from these guys. I know whose real and who throws snow. The scouts are three hundred FEET up there in the press box. Some do a great job and some...
...igh of the glass 15 times a game "playing it safe". Scuderi voluntarily gives away possession when doing so. Give me the players who can move their FEET and set themselves up to make a controlled hockey play. Playing it safe sucks. The puck is not a grenade. Controlled zone exits and controlle...
...ounder but he fits the Blackhawks in terms of the attributes and abilities he has. He is a big strong two-way forward with really great jump in his FEET. Being powerful on his skates and strong on the puck are his biggest pluses He already uses his good size and girth to hit anything that moves. N...
... the airport here in Sochi. This is the Olympic Arena in Sochi, 12,000 seats and located 300 yards from another arena with 7,000 seat. Fifty FEET away two full-sized practice arenas.. The Black Sea Cup was held here with three Russian junior teams and one Czech team. The hotel I'...
... significant number of players who will be taken in the first 50 picks or so whose frames are on the small-to-average size. Even a player listed at 6-FEET and projected to play at about 190 to 195 pounds is considered of slightly less-than-ideal size nowadays, especially if he is a defenseman. For g...
...se was to bend their elbows to hoist a few brews at the bar or to heave the remnants of their drive-through burger and fries at the trash can from 10 FEET away. The more endeavoring might actually walk a golf course instead of riding a golf cart. Times have changed, for players and officials alik...
...tion for the bottom 6. D - Anton Stralman (28). 81GP, 1-12-13. Stralman is destined to be underrated in the extreme because he stands less than 6 FEET tall and under 200 pounds, which for a Defenseman in the NHL is less than ideal, but good things happen when Stralman is on the ice. Really good ...

...lyers defensive problems are most often about breakdowns in team defense (gap control, forwards doing their part in coverages, everyone keeping their FEET moving, having a short-range safety valve for passes, etc.) and not the unworthiness of the individual defensemen. It's all about team play and e...
...ensive zone differently than wings. Faceoff skills are a big bonus. And they need to have more specific, consistent defensive responsibility over 200 FEET of ice than wings do. It is easier to migrate to wing as a natural center than it is for a wing to move to the middle. If the Hawks want t...
...ref not to bother to skate all the way down into position. The next game, for a good two minutes, the R2 (referee stationed up high) never moved five FEET and leaned on the boards. As a third-generation official who has dedicated my life to this profession, I was appalled. Stuff like this is w...
...m to the Peter Principle ("some people rise BEYOND their highest level of incompetence") is trying to push through: Widening the trapezoid from 18 FEET to 22 FEET.

He likely deserved a penalty for leaving his FEET on one check, but he was highly engaged and win get one or many before this series ends. AV decided to shake up the lines last night. He moved...
...2-1 score. Bellemare also played an important goal in that win, setting up a Damien Fleury goal that tied the score midway through the game. At 6-FEET tall and about 195 pounds, Bellemare is an average-sized player. However, he has above-average speed, plays a responsible two-way game and plays ...
1) The most glaring thing about these Stanley Cup Finals is the reminder that size matters. The Los Angeles Kings have one forward under six FEET tall-- Mike Richards. They have three players on their active roster under 200lbs--Richards, Tyler Toffoli, Justin Williams and Slava Voynov. Richards is...
