Brian Huddle: With the Eighteenth Pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Chicago Selects...

June 12, 2012 - 8:40 AM ET

...12th Overall by Guelph two years ago, to see the development in Finn's offensive game is what impressed scouts the most. Standing currently at six-FEET and 195 lbs, Finn isn't the biggest guy on the ice, but by that token he doesn't look on the small side either. A leader already, Finn plays the ...

... bigger and stronger. He does need to get better skating and with his foot work but that comes as no surprise to him. "I really need to work on my FEET, getting them better and getting them quicker to keep up to the best forwards in the OHL,” Dotchin told Yahoo Sports. “I think I did an okay ...

... play at both ends of the ice. Before his injury, Slater was playing 30 minutes a night and was a clear cut top pairing OHL defenseman. He uses quick FEET, mobility, and very good agility to skate the puck out of trouble with ease and grace. He has explosive first few strides and can take off fro...

Richard Cloutier: Trade Wars II: Reloaded - First Seven Trade Offers

June 7, 2012 - 4:54 PM ET

...ick in 2012 (10th overall). Analysis: The Flames are stupid. Everyone on the planet knows it's time to blow this sucker up. Years of stalling and FEET dragging have devalued the assets. Iggy and Kipper are obviously much better players than Connolly, Aulie and whoever the Flames could draft at #...

Brian Huddle: With the Twenty-First Pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Buffalo Selects...

June 6, 2012 - 8:49 AM ET

... times look a bit lazy and uninterested, but with maturity should come better things for his two-way game. The question mark for Samuelsson is his FEET. His boots are heavy and he has a very choppy and awkward stride. However, with added strength and adjustments to the mechanics of his stride (le...

Richard Cloutier: Draft Thoughts and Randoms

June 5, 2012 - 8:06 PM ET

... suspect a major subject with the NHL this summer will be to find ways to make the game interesting again. My suggestion? Make the rink at least five FEET wider, or create an illegal defense penalty outlawing the trap. They can't let the game continue to suck this bad or it's going to catch up with ...

Brian Huddle: With the Twenty-Third Pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Florida Selects...

June 5, 2012 - 8:38 AM ET

...down low to take the puck to the net with authority. A good skater with balance and straight line speed, Hertl has shown some good moves with his FEET to get around defenders. However, he's slow out of the gate and lacks explosiveness in his strides at this point in time. Offensively he keep...

Brian Huddle: With the Twenty-Fourth Pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Boston Selects...

...does. He's known for taking the puck deep and looking for cross-seam passes, as a very aggressive offensive defenseman. All the while, he can use his FEET to get back to the blueline quickly. Where Lindholm struggles is defensively. For all his composure in the offensive end, Lindholm begins to c...

Aaron Musick: Restricted Access: Erik Johnson

June 2, 2012 - 4:49 PM ET

...nson pulled his groin, no pun intended and was forced to sit out five games. When he came back, he was a force. Johnson started to relax, move his FEET and just play. He was physical, aggressive and started to move people from the front of the net. He also led from the bench, the locker room and ...

John Jaeckel: Hawks' Problem Is Chemistry, Not Talent

June 2, 2012 - 11:39 AM ET

... teams, it begs the question: why the two consecutive first round playoff outs? I'll submit this morning it's all about chemistry. From 30,000 FEET, one issue is purely positional: too much of the Hawks' forward talent is at wing instead of center. The defense looks close to set and proba...

Brian Huddle: News and Notes from the NHL Draft Combine: Day Four

June 1, 2012 - 8:33 AM ET

...Here’s an odd one for you: Mikhail Grigorenko had the Anaheim Ducks ask him to remove his shoes in the interview, as they wanted a good look at his FEET. - Interesting note from last year’s Combine. Sean Couturier never interviewed with the Flyers, but did speak with 21 other teams. - A...

Todd Cordell: New Jersey Devils and Los Angeles Kings' keys to winning the Stanley Cup

May 28, 2012 - 1:22 PM ET

...le, regardless of how good their penalty kill has been to this point in the playoffs; Case and point below. Throw the puck at Martin Brodeur's FEET Brodeur is, in my opinion, the best goaltender of all-time and he has done a great job throughout his career of making adjustments to his game...

Ian Esplen: Lu's Competition

May 28, 2012 - 10:09 AM ET

... star in the making but stile very unproven at the NHL level. I would also have concerns over size with him. There isn't a lot of goalies less than 6 FEET that play more than 50 games a year so you have to ask the question, "can he?". Tim Thomas- I really can't see Boston dealing the guy that al...

...sigh, and puts down one of his two forks. "Okay, what is it? Hurry up though, I don't like it when my herring gets stale." Kevin Lowe shuffles his FEET and looks to the floor in an effort to avoid making any eye contact. "Say there's an NHL team in a city with a name that rhymes with 'Deadmonton'...

May 24, 2012 - 4:07 PM ET

...nt to Defcon 2. New Jersey was carrying play with Hagelin recording the Rangers' first shot on goal at 5:29. It got worse, as Gaborik shot like eight FEET wide of an open net from seven FEET off a great feed from Feds, who I thought was brilliant last night, to keep the Rangers off the board. To...

Brian Huddle: With the 26th Pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Vancouver Selects...

...with the puck on his stick, and really shows a lot of confidence in his abilities, with the intelligence and vision to make things happen. On his FEET, Laughton is a horse. He's hard to knock off stride, and can generate very good speed with his balance and power. Down low he's a demon to handle...

...n with B-Deck. I've never been a huge Zooey Deschanel fan, but the culturally elite crowd would take twelve slugs from a .45 to come within 1,000 FEET of her presence. I just know we would never work out. The girl is deathly afraid to eggs, dairy, and wheat gluten, which means she can pretty muc...

...eans Brodeur will likely face some quality chances early. If he can make a few big stops and hold them off the score board until the Devils get their FEET underneath them, they'll have a very good chance of winning tonight. -------------------------------------------------------------------------...

... goalie. When he’s on his game he is one of the toughest goalies to beat. He has that speed and athleticism you can’t teach, I mean he guy is six FEET out of his net on his knees and somehow makes a perfect glove save with his chest on the ice. As for Smith you got to love him, whether you care ...
