...ase tested Brian Elliott all night. Hossa has 11 goals on the year. What many might not realize is how close he comes on just simple shots from 20-25 FEET out, where pucks have beaten goalies and hit posts, or trickled off a glove or a pad and out of the crease. A Vancouver fan (probably among o...
...s physically clobbered because of it. The Oilers need him because the defense can't successfully make a pass out of their own zone and longer than 15 FEET in any direction. How many quality chances did the Flames get thanks to a horrible pass attempt from the D to the forwards? If Hall was there car...
...�s starting goalie Scott Clemmensen. The shot looked innocent enough until it bulged the twine and sent the sell-out crowd at the Shark Tank to their FEET. Tonight represented a battle of the back-up goalies. Thomas Greiss patrolled the blue paint for San Jose and Scott Clemmensen for Florida...
...along swimmingly, with the Sabres holding a 2-0 lead late in the second period when repeat offender, Jordan Tootoo decided to drive Miller, leave his FEET and thrash the Buffalo goalie to the ice. Tootoo, the poster child for stupidity in the NHL, was rung up for a five minute charging penalty, a...
... Why? Matt Martin immediately came to Nino's defense while he was splayed on the ground. Missed call is the least of it. Two refs were within 10 FEET of the play and neither called a penalty. What kind of horse manure is that? Martin in the box for roughing and the Stars on the power play. ...
... the offensive threat so many have speculated and hoped he would be. He is a dynamic skater with a laser wrist shot who brings the home crowd to its FEET when he rushes. Kane’s early seasons struggles were well documented here and in other publications and since the 7 game road trip he has chang...
...ix minutes have been an exhibition in puck possession and time and space denial. Sabres doing a good job of containing the Wings' skill players. fast FEET and active sticks in lanes. ***** This is Jhonas Enroth's 9th straight start. Miller will start vs. Smashville on Saturday night. *...
...wo as the case was last night). The D and goalie played in one end and the forwards played at the other. You can't win in the NHL by playing only 100 FEET. You can only win when everyone buys in, and plays all 200 FEET. While no one player was to blame for last night's lose, the forwards as a group ...
...Sidney Crosby’s or Jordan Staal’s situations) James Neal $2500 fine - “Hard to argue. There was a high stick on the play. Subban took his FEET out, we accept that.” Sidney Crosby - “I like when he’s combative, competitive.” Regarding the Nick Foligno incident: “Tha...
...Oilers. As the Avalanche do not own a first round pick in 2012, they are probably out of this alleged race but the Oilers should jump in with both FEET. Ryan is a young player who has it all. He skates well, shoots even better and has a physical edge to his game. Ryan on the Oilers would compl...
...ills of the players involved, their track records, injuries, etc., and you get a fairly complete picture of what's going on. Let's start at 40,000 FEET— the Hawks have scored 79 goals, which is good. They are 3rd in the league in goals per game. They are 20th in the league in goals against per ...
...through two. Matt Moulson had one hell of a fight in the first and Nino laid an uncharacteristically horrid hit on a little guy. Never leave your FEET Nino. That's a dirty play and I don't want to see you turn into that type of player. Besides, you're nine inches taller than that kid you threw...
... which always leaves room for improvement. And, although he's expected to have a decent number of PIMs, he does take some bizarre penalties about 200 FEET from his own net. Still, it's huge for this team to have another - if unfamiliar - face willing and able to carry some of the responsibility ...
...e Corey Crawford enough help to win. If they can do that most nights, they will be a very hard team to beat. Further, they were effective over 200 FEET of ice. Forecheck, backcheck, controlling the neutral zone. I liked the lines, not just the newly minted top 6 that helped spur the comeback F...
...8 78-28-37 **** 1st Period: Finally! A fast start for the Sabres. High percentage chances from Pommer and Vanek keep Vokoun on his FEET early. *** 1-0 Buffalo Szczechura crushed former sabres, Dennis wideman, in the corner and the puck finds Luke Adam all alone in the...
... Think Bickell or Michal Frolik are getting to that level this year? If you’re Catholic, start lighting candles. I’ll give Frolik this: his FEET are always moving and he never gives up on plays. You get the sense that surrounded by better players, he could help make more happen. The same w...
...eason. * The team defense needs to improve dramatically -- everything from the forwards' backchecking, to the reads on coverages, to keeping their FEET moving rather making lunging stick check attempts, to breakouts and puck management. * The penalty kill had been on a roll but has sprung a le...
...he ice became smooth, away from the bumpy open surface, where the older boys took slapshots. I skated that first day until I could no longer feel my FEET or fingers. I came home to the floor vent, sat on the heat register, and endured the odd pain that came with recirculation. I warmed my hands b...
...owever, against the Canes, the ref didn't blow the whistle, the Habs stopped skating and that left Stewart all alone to roof one past Price from five FEET out. There was a lot of debate on Twitter about whether that should have been whistled dead and if the goal should stand. And while it seems c...
...me with Gomez coasting on a back check and watching the puck instead of his man. The result was that Andrew Ference was allowed to skate to within 10 FEET of Carey Price, unmolested, and fire the puck top-shelf for the lone goal of the game. Weak, Gomez, weak. All he had to do was take his man...
