...series. So he's had his good moments. But there have been a few stinkers along the way, too. I don't lay the Canucks' current losing streak at the FEET of the goaltenders at all, but I feel like all the bad luck has eaten away at Luongo's confidence at a critical time. He seemed very positionally...
...gs in 2008 and the organization had a lot of hope for him as a strong two-way forward on the bottom lines. However Czarnik was never able to find his FEET in the AHL and struggled with inconsistency. Hopefully this move can get the young forward jump started. In return the Kings get right wi...
... of east-west hockey, where the stress and emphasis is on stretching the width of the ice, not the length of it, and taking advantage of the 15 extra FEET (7.5 FEET on each wall) of playing surface. The host Russians, the slippery Swedes, and the pesky Finns will use their speed laterally taking so ...
... is. Work tight to the net by skating to open space and boomeranging the net. 2. Hustle out of the zone; when the players are moving up keep your FEET moving. You will be able to make better determinations from 50 FEET rather than 100 FEET away from the play. 3. Know the rules, when you are ...
...Monday night. In the middle puck, Philly cycled the puck effectively and hemmed the Avalanche deep in their zone. Additionally, Flyers kept their FEET moving throughout the stanza and maintained good puck support. The breakouts were quick and crisp, and Philly generated speed through the neutral...
...cials and teams alike. For example, a key determining factor in the too-many-men penalty is whether the player(s) exiting the ice are within five FEET of the bench when one or more teammates enter the ice and the offending team plays the puck. Now here's my question: Is five FEET (60 inches...
...an assist but more importantly got into his first fight. Although a brief one, his sudden ramp up in energy and aggression brought the fans to their FEET, and seemed to give Panthers a boost. Not surprisingly when secondary scoring shows up for the Panthers, a win is likely. Tuesday was no ...
...: Hey, I thought Blockbuster went bankrupt? ZING! On Tim Kennedy clearing waivers: How did no one want an 8 point fourth liner who is under six FEET? That's not exactly fair, Kennedy brings more to the table than you'd think. I actually would way rather him play in the lineup than Halpern. ...
...th Jon Merrill and Pete Harrold, both of whom played pretty well. That's two regular penalty killers in Gionta and Elias, and a guy who's getting his FEET wet down a man in Merrill. There's nothing wrong with icing that unit with two minutes left and trying to trim the clock down while Andy Greene, ...
...ck when the Flyers went ahead, 4-2. Stalock stopped four of five. Philly put forth an outstanding two-way effort in this game. Everyone kept their FEET moving, forwards helped out in the defensive zone and there was always a safety valve of puck support. Three of the most notable players in this ...
...g aside I think Harrold is an upgrade over Volchenkov against a team with as much speed as Colorado. Harrold is a better skater and is quicker on his FEET which will help him when trying to defend against Avalanche forwards, especially in the transition game. - Nathan MacKinnon enters the game re...
...avily emphasized and themes that get repeated frequently; for instance, breakout and forechecking systems and the importance of players keeping their FEET moving and supporting the puck. With officials, there are also themes that get stressed heading into the season. There are directives from th...
...that. The Blues were on the ball early tonight, unloading 14 shots in the first period, compared to the eight by Nashville. They were moving their FEET, battling hard in the corners, and really digging hard in front of the net. The Blues got the first powerplay of the night, when the Predator...
...t and spaced out in the Anaheim game, everything this game was in the paint in basketball terms. Twelve of the Kings 30 shots alone were within 10-12 FEET of the goal. Pay attention to the style of Montreal also, they too did a great job getting pucks in good areas but credit the Kings goaltending. ...
... of the NEHL and then collected a full WHA playoff share with Cincinnati due to the stipulations of my contract. Ultimately, I landed back on my FEET. The next year, I spent time in the Central Hockey League with the Birmingham Bulls, playing for John Brophy. On the Oklahoma City Stars, the...
...s Stewart has a lot of size he could use in his advantage, the problem is, he doesn't. He is a fast skater, but he never shows the hustle to move his FEET. He has a very deceptive shot, but he is never in position to show off his shooting ability. Chris Stewart doesn't fit into the Blues system, and...
... to take advantage of them. The Devils will need to be wary of pinching in the offensive zone and watch their gaps, because if they stop moving their FEET or turn it over, the Stars will burn them. - I've defended Pete DeBoer and his personnel decisions a fair bit this season, but I'd like to see...
...The Hawks just seem to lack chemistry and structure and are not playing their game—which typically begins and ends with rock solid defense over 200 FEET of ice. Maybe the Olympic break comes at a good time, allowing may Hawks to either relax or at least have some fun with their countrymen over ...
...en the chance to do more, now that he seems capable of offering more. 3) Nathan Beaulieu is getting more comfortable, and so long as he keeps his FEET moving, the game will continue to get easier for him. All you need is a pair of functional eyes to see what his biggest skill is, and it seemed t...
...0 WIN The Philadelphia Flyers are no different from any other hockey club: They become a much tougher team to play against when players keep their FEET moving and pay attention to detail. Good goaltending, of course, is another key component of success. Last night against the Detroit Red Wing...
