...ts, including a Stanley Cup win in 2004. Arguably the greatest player in the franchise’s history, St. Louis brought the fans at the Forum to their FEET on more occasions than anyone could ever remember. He was electric for so many years. This was a player who seemingly loved Tampa, loved the Li...
...tched a career-best 13 goals and 22 points while posting a plus-18 rating. The 5-foot-11, 185 pounder plays bigger than his size because he keeps his FEET moving and pays attention to detail. * Every year, there is at least one minor league player whom no one has on their Flyers NHL roster radar ...
...of this year's Draft. In today's NHL, goaltenders are getting bigger and bigger. It has gotten to the point where goalies who stand less than six-FEET tall virtually need not apply and ones who are listed at 6-foot-1 are considered to have "average" size. All of the aforementioned goaltenders ex...
...ay support the above notion. Below are my findings. From 1994-98, the average young man who was selected in the top 10 of the NHL draft was 6 FEET, two inches tall weighing in at 211 pounds, and was drafted out of the Ontario Hockey League. Five years later, from 1999-2003, the average p...
... power play opportunities. Only Adam Henrique had a better penalty differential than Carter, so that's pretty impressive. He always keeps his FEET moving and does a good job of getting under the skin of opponents, so naturally you'd think he'd draw his fair share of calls. It's not surpr...
... three games to one series lead. They will look to eliminate the Habs on Tuesday night. The Rangers committed five penalties while they were 200 FEET from their net. All told, New York took eight penalties combined. Benoit Pouliot rung up for holding the stick just 30 seconds into overtime. ...

... and Carter, and then two very strong centers backing them up in Stoll and Richards. All four have been incredible on the draw, all four can play 200 FEET of the ice, and all four are capable (Okay maybe not Stoll) of taking over a shift. You love the matchup of Toews-Kopitar if you are the Hawk...
...r the Guelph storm who NHL central scouting had ranked 16th for North American skaters. In his draft year he went 61GP, 10-38-48 but he stands only 6 FEET tall and less than 200lbs, so the Oilers overlooked him. This past season he was the 2nd highest scoring defender in the OHL, ahead of Nurse, ahe...
...is on the ice. The Hawks are a better team with Shaw on the ice, yapping at opponents and snowing their goalies than they are with him seated 150 FEET above the ice on press row, eating popcorn. The Hawks' stars love Shaw and a few of them pumped the kid's tires to the Blackhawks' website on ...
...nd this style of play do is force the other team to pay catch-up, not just getting back to cover their zone, but in all aspects of the game, over 200 FEET of ice. If a team wants to run around and go for big hits, look out, because the puck is coming back your way very fast. Same thing if they w...
... the Spectrum on Sunday, May 5, 1974. Clarke and Parent skate the Cup around the Spectrum ice "The Spectrum ice is two hundred by eighty-five FEET," said Ranger GM/Coach Emil Francis. "It has boards and glass. There's no reason why we can't win there." But some of Francis' troops were no...
...the lineup on a consistent basis. Berube felt that the undersized defenseman was not consistent enough in using the things he does well -- moving his FEET, triggering the rush and making intelligent pinches from the point -- to justify having a third small defenseman in a lineup that already featur...
... attempts to sort through and further add to the Flames off-season game plan. While most GM's might take a few extra fishing trips and sit with their FEET up over the summer, this particular GM likely won't have much time for any of that. First on his list, according to the new GM, is to finaliz...
...sion process. I didn’t feel like going in and talking to the doctors for 20 minutes. A lot of guys were playing through things. Guys with fractured FEET (rookie Ryan Murray), separated shoulders (R.J. Umberger) … (Nick) Foligno came back in 2 ½ weeks from a (knee) sprain, which is usually four ...
...t the World Junior Championships. There were whispers that while a teenaged Schenn had the hands and competitiveness of an NHL impact player, his FEET and pacing needed work. Those factors likely played into who Schenn was twice sent back to junior hockey after seeing brief periods of time with ...
...won't. Then obviously we have the draft." You've talked about how much you've enjoyed scouting, is that something that will allow you to get your FEET wet a little bit? "I think without a doubt I'm going to do that from time to time when the opportunity arises. When you are the general manag...
...that they never meant to be this terrible for this long. What Edmonton is doing right now is that weird strut that you do when you trip over your own FEET in front of that girl you like from your Psych 101 class. You know that thing where you pretend like you MEANT to do it. The Oilers didnt try to ...
... bigger and bigger all the time. When I look back to when I was refereeing in the NHL, the league still had a slew of goalies who stood less than six FEET tall. Without even thinking too hard about compiling a list, the likes of Dominik Hasek, Mike Richter, John Vanbiesbrouck, Curtis Joseph, Ed Belf...
... full-time player at the top level. "Akeson has NHL hands and vision," said one scout, "but he has AHL game without the puck and AHL strength. His FEET, strength and play without the puck all need to improve for him to remain and have impact in the NHL." Said the other scout, "I have to be hon...
