...ton. Hemsky is a good player and very talented. Certainly he is way better than Erat. But he is also 30 years old and plays smaller than his six FEET. I am not sure how adding two smallish offensive minded forwards will help a team that prides itself on its defensive identity. I know the Coyo...
...khanded beauty over the blocker of Bishop. Physicality ramped up to end the period and the 18,000 in attendance at the Scottrade Center were on their FEET. The energy was tangible. The third period was dominance by the Blues, out-shooting Tampa 7-5 but physically dominating the smaller team. ...
...was snow in the forecast -- a bit higher than normal for North Carolina, but nothing too far out of the ordinary. Surprise! Raleigh got well over two FEET of snow. My fellow officials and I were stranded at our hotel, the Crabtree Marriott, for several days. As a matter of fact, the hotel ran out o...
...tested on the powerplay. Nobody on the Leafs side pushed themselves into the lane to block his shot. Phaneuf was stuck having to do it from three FEET in front of his goaltender. I can't blame players for not always wanting to step in front of Subban's shot, but to not play him closely on Montre...
... The Oil are getting better at this. Last game Lil Nuge took a crosschecking penalty while defending himself, but Petry took some heat for staying 40 FEET away from danger. I think Hendricks is going to be a great addition to the BOA. The Flames are going to hate him. 2) CLR. Calcium Lime and Ru...
... back into it but the Oilers have lots of young legs. I’m not worried about the likes of Hall and Eberle, but it might take Smyth longer to get his FEET going and, to a lesser degree, Ference too. LINEUPS Eakins has confirmed that Scrivens will get the start tonight and Belov will play as we...
...ssible when receiving a body check. Get up against the boards. Don't leave yourself at someone else's mercy by facing the wall, especially from a few FEET away. Nowadays, players do it all the time. Coaches bear some of the blame, both for the increase in bad hits and in the reduced emphasis on s...
...entually strip Chara and score the OT GWG. Look at how greasy Moulson gets below the faceoff dots on his dramatic goal. His head is always up, his FEET are always moving and he’s always in position to get a shot on goal once the puck touches his tape. That’s why he’s a perennial 30-goal sco...
...untries and five came home with shiny new souvenirs. Now it's back to work chasing another shiny souvenir. Only this time the souvenir is about three FEET tall and weighs close to 40 pounds and their is only one to share for anybody lucky enough to win it. On Friday night the Ducks play host to t...
... the room changed. Watching Callahan play and lead reminds me a lot of Dave Poulin. I don't think the Rangers can sacrifice that and land on their FEET, even if they (undoubtedly) would bring some good assets back in return. Last word on the Olympics What an absolutely incredible sporting e...
...t you cannot afford to group it with a horrible soft goal and another 1 in which you turn a fairly harmless shot into a grade A scoring chance from 8 FEET in front of you. Put simply, in terms of volume and quality of chances, Ward saw a 1-goal against game and managed to turn it into a 3-goal agai...
...uys." I pulled off my referee sweater. Underneath, I wore a Quebec Nordiques jersey with my old number 22 on it. The crowd immediately rose to its FEET, roaring its approval. I hammed it up a little, pointing to the Nordiques crest, and they roared even louder. I skated by Mario. Now it was m...
... game was played on international ice. They had the best players at the time but not the best system or understanding of the international game. 15 FEET can make a huge difference and in two Olympics it did for the always favourited Canadians but not this year. Hockey is a game of chances and l...
...ne of the Canadian point men, Team USA held its breath. The Canadian point men are dangerous enough in an NHL-sized offensive zone. Move them several FEET closer to the net, and they are lethal. These are all things that Pär Mårts will have to prepare his team to face. It won't be easy. One adv...
... for Luke Schenn's effectiveness how the team is playing. Look first at whether the forwards are providing support, the team collectively has its FEET moving and if the goaltending is feeding into a team's confidence level. When those things happen, the defenseman has a much better chance of suc...
...me than his stat line (no points, minus three, one shot on goal, 14:50 of ice time would suggest). He was one of just a few Czech players who had his FEET moving and was hard on the stick. Playing on the third line and the second power play unit during the tourney, Voracek finished with one goal and...
...people, I'm silently urging them to adjust their positioning in the corners, to not get caught on the half boards, to avoid pucks hitting them in the FEET, and to work as a team. Above all, I'm rooting for them to get each and every call correct for the good of the game. It's an elusive goal, b...
...rinks are in different countries. In Sochi, they are 200 by 100. This may only seem like a small 15 foot difference, but it amounts to 3000 square FEET. Also, it has only been since the modern era where the NHL has been formally standardized. Formerly, rinks were just 'roughly' NHL size. Th...
...4) Patrick Sharp is going to have to bury his chances or his spot might be in jeopardy. He had the best chance of the game and fired it wide from two FEET in front of a yawning net. Easy to pick out one tiny mistake in execution--and it's not going to bury Sharp for the tournament--but he was select...
...ll in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft out of the OHL London Knights. Kane is no longer viewed as the Harry Potter like wiz kid with fast hands and faster FEET. He's earned the respect of pro coaches, managers, scouts, and talent evaluators as being one of the "one percenters" in the entire hockey world....
