...and if not for his amazing athleticism would have let in around two more goals. Give him all the credit in there world, not many can over-commit five FEET then 360 barrel roll to make a save in the splits. Smith however did clean up one area of his game missing in the first one. He managed to contro...
...n open flame without hesitation and thought. Mike Smith did the opposite; he went berserk in his need to play the puck. At one point he was a good 30 FEET out of his net and doing a spinarama. I like confidence, but he was pushing it. Both he and Pekka Rinne spent a lot of time on their arses, mostl...
... Anton Stralman. The Rangers gameplan was simple, yet effective: Bottle up the elite scorers for Ottawa with complete team defense for two-hundred FEET, employing two-way forwards and arguably one of the best defensive pairings in the National Hockey League with regularity. Largely, like most ...
...y of the round, the B's power-play was (beyond) lifeless all game long. Not only was the Boston 'advantage' dead, it was literally buried at least 12 FEET into the ground, because six FEET would be too generous. As the B's failed to strike on four man-advantages, there was no greater power-play ...
...oaches to pull a guy without placing blame on him and making him feel as if he is the reason for the loss. Players will play every shift until their FEET bleed through their laces. NHL players didn't arrive at the show because they shy'd away from wanting ice time. We have coaches to keep them in...
... And, this time around, Craig Anderson couldn't bail them out. Derek Stepan's power play goal after a brutal penalty by Milan Michalek two-hundred FEET from the net evened the game at one, but it was Brad Richards' marker up two men on penalties to both Filip Kuba and Nick Foligno that pushed all...
...e Red Wings are still a quality organization with star players like Pavel Datsyuk, Johan Franzen and Henrik Zetterberg , but they cannot ignore their FEET of clay, as key players Nicklas Lidstrom and Tomas Holmstrom enter the last chapter of their careers and Jimmy Howard continues to provide eviden...
...g well before the 0.50 second threshold used as a benchmark by the NHL. They also confirmed what's quite evident through video -- Neil never left his FEET prior to the collision. The only question, really, was whether or not Neil's primary point of contact was Brian Boyle's head. In fairness, thi...
...y down on Johnny Boychuk, give him shots to the back of the head as they're tangled, but won't fight Boston's top-four defensemen when he gets to his FEET. They'll have matching minors. 13:00 - Physical exchange between Chara and Ovechkin once again. These guys seem like best friends. 12:45 - ...
...SN after the hit, you would have seen the panel cringing at the whiplash affect upon falling rather than the hit itself. As far as Torres leaving his FEET, the NHL made a decision that he left his FEET prior to contact. I was unsure with the camera angles I had, but with that I will give Mr. Shanaha...
...tter. Where you can still be connected with your team while they're on summer vacation. Although I am NOT reprinting the photo of Rhett Rakhshani's FEET. SoundTigers: Game two against the CT Whale is tonight in Bridgeport. Hopefully there will be a different outcome from the first. The Tiger...
...r Game 5 after taking the Malkin hit and one by Tyler Kennedy (of all people). If Malkin wasn’t fighting for puck possession and if he had left his FEET, then the Philly beef might have more cheddar to its burger. As it stands, Malkin didn’t extend his elbow and Grossman was stretching forward i...
...Andre Fleury with the puck. With the Flyers on the man advantage, the Flower passes the puck from behind his net right onto Jaromir Jagr’s stick 15 FEET away. Philly nearly scored on the play. Such poor decision making would’ve made other coaches think long and hard about benching Fleury sooner ...
...2-1 series lead, but all of the talk after this game was Raffi Torres' hit on Marian Hossa in the first period. It was late. It was high. He left his FEET and Hossa never saw it coming and apparently neither did the officials as there was no penalty on the play. In fact, as Hossa was being loaded on...
...ll— or any call—except of course penalizing Chicago forward Brandon Bollig for trying to respond. Hossa did not have the puck. Torres left his FEET after taking a running start, and planted his shoulder on Hossa's jaw at top speed. And, by the way, his arm seemed to come up on the follow thro...
...lay on the ice and it went unpenalized. Chicago head coach Joel Quinneville was incensed. The facts… Torres’ hit was late, Torres’ left his FEET, Torres made contact with Hossa’s head with his shoulder, Torres is a repeat offender and Hossa is injured, just being released from the hospit...
... him high in the chest, maybe even the chin. He had huge momentum behind him and while his left skate looks down as his shoulder leans, he leaves his FEET at the point of contact. Reckless hit and pretty disgusting. Torres was playing great disciplined hard hockey and was one of the Coyotes best pla...
...is hit on All-Star defenseman Brent Seabrook. Tonight he caught Hawks forward Marian Hossa cutting across the middle in the neutral zone and left his FEET to deliver a hard check. Torres did not receive even a minor penalty for this hit, but will likely receive a call from NHL sheriff Bren...
...s the puck when the Hawks desperately need a big play I cringe, because three seconds later the puck is in the net. They can’t afford to take their FEET off the pedal at any time. I’m just surprised that when down a man on a 5 on 4 situation they are unbeatable, then when it’s 6 on 5 they cave...
...heck near Brayden Schenn's throat, followed by a punch to the back of Schenn's head as he laid on the ice. Asham no doubt thought Schenn had left his FEET to deliver a hit moments earlier -- he got a charging minor out of it, although the referee's arm did not initially go up -- but the retaliation ...
