... by their opponent. As officials, we should reward the players who skate and demonstrate skill. We should NOT reward players who fail to move their FEET or, worse, embellish. We should penalize the players who prevent opponents from demonstrating their skating and puck-moving skills. SOUND JU...
...during a Washington power play. “We missed assignments on our coverage.” Carlyle said. “You can’t let Troy Brouwer shoot the puck from 10 FEET in front of your goaltender, there’s obviously a missed assignment and missed coverage in that situation.” Just over three minutes later, ...
...ff much like Saturday's game. The Flyers jumped all over the Penguins with high-intensity puck pursuit in all three zones. Philly's players had their FEET moving with good puck support and the Penguins' did not. When that happens -- as the Flyers can attest from the games this season when they'v...
...e new statue and my many old friends some 40 years after they first carried the Cup around the ice in the Spectrum that once stood just a few hundred FEET away. And now here are my pictures of the dedication ... Draped in "Orange" prior to the ceremony Sculptor Chad Fisher The alwa...
...e been very kind to enemy forwards this season. I've seen enough of it. Its time to shift the paradigm to big, rugged D, who have fast hands and fast FEET. Ryan Miller was a human eraser for the Sabres for the majority of this dismal regular season. He doesn't live in Buffalo anymore. Miller was li...
... against a team that needed the two points much more than Pittsburgh did. Apart from the many key absences from the lineup, Pittsburgh can move their FEET and the puck much better than they showed on Saturday. Expect more push-back from the Pens in the return match. After Sunday's game, the Flyer...
...10, one spot after Vancouver's first-rounder that was traded to Florida in the Keith Ballard deal. He remains a high-risk player—he's listed at six FEET but just 172 pounds and will wear that "enigmatic Russian" label until he proves himself. On Friday, it looked like we were seeing the breakout p...
...e Devils tend to struggle against teams that push the pace if they don't stick to the game plan so that'll be key tonight. They'll have to keep their FEET moving at all times or they'll be burned regularly and will probably get into penalty trouble. - Michael Ryder hasn't scored in 21 consecutive...
...nable to go. It's been a frustrating year (career?) for Hanzal, who just can't seem to put his back troubles to rest. The guy is approximately ten FEET tall, so no doubt he is going to probably always be plagued by this, but for as long as I can remember, every time he seems on the verge of becom...
...the third period, and there was 78 penalty minutes, including four game misconducts. Ryan Reaves and Luke Gazdic were tossed after both were on their FEET, yelling at one another in the penalty box. Mark Fraser and Vladimir Sobotka were tossed later in the period after jawing with one another on the...
...aggerty, who lives in Stamford, Ct. has been a life-long Rangers fan and gets to now fulfill a dream playing with the organization. He has size, at 6-FEET, 200-pounds, and shown he can score, with a league-leading 28 games in 35 games, but is in need of some seasoning. However, it's pretty clear tha...
...he off-wing one timer with Simmonds jockeying for rebound position. Rotation 4: Simmonds stands along the goal line, facing Giroux from about five FEET away away from the goal post. Giroux funnels the puck to Simmonds. The righthanded-shooting Simmonds will then try to swing in front of the net f...
...ime he was on the ice, and at times he took the game over. His sequence midway through the 3rd period was simply amazing. He put the puck through his FEET, danced around a couple defenders then skated towards the net before feeding Ruutu in front. Ruutu was able to get a shot off, Zidlicky cycled be...
... played four years, won a national championship as a senior in 2011-12 and was named to the Frozen Four All Tournament team. A Boston native, he's 6-FEET and 175 pounds. He had 19 goals and 22 assists in 72 games last year with Lake Erie. This season, he has eight goals and 13 assists in 54 games. ...
... is if they try to do as little as possible beyond simple defense. Schultz pinches and leaves Fraser alone? Goal against. Fraser decides to wander 40 FEET to make a hit? Goal against. 2) Fasth Start. I had to write it. You knew that was coming. He hasn’t played well in the games he appeared in...
...at was directly in front of the R1. For example that happened one time when I was partnered with a different still-active NHL referee. He was 130 FEET behind a play that was right in front of me and which I saw perfectly. Even so, I had no choice but to go along with it. One of the cardinal ...
...ts fired his way. The Stars lost Lehtonen when he got steamrolled by Wild forward Erik Haula as Haula drove to the net. Haula appeared to get his FEET tangled a bit but made no effort to avoid the contact. Haula received a five-minute major for charging and a game misconduct. Lehtonen suffered a...
... Oshie was called for high sticking just six seconds into the man advantage. Alex Pietrangelo and Steen both missed on empty net chances from 200 FEET and the period would end, giving the Blues their third straight victory. Ott finished the night playing just over 14 minutes and was 67% on t...
...ntages that the Flyers survived unscathed. The Flyers have been the quintessential Jekyll and Hyde team this season. There's the team that has its FEET moving, is hungry for the puck and resilient. That's the one that showed up in the opening 40 minutes of play, in which Philly compiled a 4-1 lea...
...st.” The Avalanche also has two goalies with Lake Erie in the American Hockey League: Sami Aittokallio and Calvin Pickard. Berra, who is 6-FEET-4 and 194 pounds, is in his first NHL season and played in 29 games for the Flames. He has a 9-17-2 record with a 2.95 goals-against average and ...
