...ift in their own zone, everything was kept to the perimeter. * On the Flyers first goal, Grossmann deliberately shot the puck directly at Luongo's FEET, hoping for a rebound. He got one, and good things happened from there as McGinn made a beeline for the net. McGinn claimed the rebound and potte...
... goal but came immediately after the penalty expired and before the Canes could clear the puck.) --Cam Ward had no answer and looked like he had his FEET frozen into the ice and appeared unable to react on either goal in addition to leaving rebounds laying here there and everywhere. --When you net...
... one another and both times I believe the comparison has been incorrect. The first was when Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin were still getting their FEET wet in the NHL. People wanted to compare the Penguins to the beginning stages of the 1980’s Oilers dynasty. This was an unfair comparison and...
...ter and we will get better at it because the style we want to play and the skating, we won’t take that many penalties because we’ll be moving our FEET. “The dumb penalties have to be eliminated all together because they are unacceptable.” I actually thought the Flyers played a very go...
...kate well enough as a team. When a team does not skate well enough, it takes too many minor penalties. When a team is not quick enough, either on its FEET or in terms of its decision-making, critical puck battles are generally lost instead of won. New coach Craig Berube inherited a team that lac...
...uys, Kevin Porter, will sit this game out. Mikhail Grigorenko has been exiled from his one game stint in the "150 Foot Club" (the press box is 150 FEET above the ice surface in NHL rinks). Alex Sulzer will take Weber's place in the lineup. Weber will take his benching like a pro. He'll be a...
...third period, the Boston Bruins beat the Colorado netminder with a wicked shot from winger Michael Ryder, sending a thrilled Garden crowd up to their FEET. Sound like an old story? That’s because it is. Boy, is it ever. It’s now been almost four years since the Bruins scored a goal at the...
Well, that couldn't have gone any better for the Anaheim Ducks- Am I right? The Ducks had the home town fans on their FEET right from the drop of the puck and Hollywood probably couldn't have scripted the game any better. The New York Rangers never had a chance. Still oozing blood from a 9-2 Sha...
... Oilers reviewed those primo chances that Nick Schultz had last game and thought they needed someone who might be able to keep the shot lower than 10 FEET. Who knows? He gives the club options that other callups would not. I hope he gets into some game action and Schultz the Elder takes a seat for a...
...the corners to force the Phoenix defensemen to retrieve the puck. To win the puck on the forecheck, that means Philly's players had better keep their FEET moving. The same thing goes for defensive play: the Flyers need to skate and support one another better than they have for much of the early s...
...contact Johnson's head? Shoulder? Chest? Thats for Brendan Shanahan and the Department of Player Saftey to determine. Kaleta-Boll Some 25 FEET away, McCormick and Prout dropped the gloves. McCormick-Prout Thanks, Hockey-Fights.com Johnson remained in the game. Kaleta wou...
... contact, causing an injury," a violation of Rule 48. From watching the hit over and over a few things stood out. First, Stuart did not leave his FEET. Second, he did extend up with the check but it looked more shoulder than elbow. Third, the blow appeared to be more of one that went across his ...
...so because of its kill) and struggling mightily at even strength. Skate! Pay attention to details positioning-wise. And don’t be lazy moving the FEET! And it is an even strength game that favors the Canes. Get sloppy and go to the box and the even the Canes decent penalty kill could be overwh...
... period. Looking again at something on the positive side of the ledger, I thought the Flyers did a somewhat better job last night of keeping their FEET moving and supporting one another in puck battles in the trenches. There is still plenty of room for improvement in both areas, and there were st...
...ough them all night long, half the time through 3 players with amazing passes that might have been stopped had the Coyotes actually been moving their FEET. I wasn’t surprised that they lost, the Sharks have destroyed them at home about 99% of the time and even against any opponent the Shark Tank i...
...ie's abrasiveness can allow Duchene and O'Reilly more skating room, but it doesn't help when he takes undisciplined penalties. "I have to keep my FEET down and I can't get my elbows up (when making a hit)," he said. "I can't take bad penalties. That's something I have to watch." Be assured N...
...llecting points regularly and outplaying opponents on good nights. But I would have figured that this part would have to wait until the team got its FEET underneath itself. But in addition to priority 1 of “just get points without regard to how”, I think the team made strides in terms of est...
...rs, who have scored just one goal in each of the first three games, struggle to generate back-to-back productive shifts. Players weren't moving their FEET, and Carolina dictated the play for far too much of the night. The Flyers could not cope with the speedier Hurricanes players, especially Jeff S...
...a loss like that much easier. Bennett flashed some really strong puck skills in the offensive zone as he used his body as a shield while keeping his FEET moving. It allowed the Penguins to generate zone time and offensive chances. The addition of Chuck Kobasew has been great. He is a player wh...
... Last night, Downie threw a completely reckless bodycheck on Predators defenseman Roman Josi. Downie's head was the point of contact and he left his FEET as well. To be clear, the reason I find fault with this sort of play is I hate the total lack of respect players have for one another in this ...
