...erline penalty but Giroux put himself into a dangerous position. Never leave yourself at the mercy of another player not to hit you from behind a few FEET from the boards. The flip side of that was that Giroux fearlessly went for the puck and had every right to try to get body position to keep the p...
...y afterwards. Talk about building confidence, that could’ve done the trick. He’ll be in the AHL next year, but this was a great chance to get his FEET wet on NHL ice, so to speak. No big deal, but a perspective few have shared, especially with Orpik's injury. ***** The preseason pitted NHL...
... I also believe that intent can be inferred in 98% of these cases based on prior record, time the player had to pull up, raised elbows, leaving the FEET and other body language before and after the hit— as well as the context of what was going on in the game, ie a recent hit or a goal. 8 game...
...n their jackets, but nothing else. As far as the game, Erie looked nowhere close the team that they could be with a solid Top Six. Passes were in FEET all night and they couldn't get much going. Guelph moved the puck quick and kept the pressure on all night. In the end, it was a gong show with a...
...Hall of Fame. At the peak of his career in 1993, Doug Gilmour was one of the best players in the game. He was small, he was feisty, he played all 200 FEET of the ice, and he was talented. But through all of that, Dougie was one of the hardest workers on the ice. When the game was on the line, he too...
...s than he loses. He back checks with regularity. His stick is active and is always in a passing lane. He denies opponents time and space by using his FEET to tighten gaps. Vanek's offensive production got him drafted. He's an all around player now, who can be counted to perform 5 on 5, on the PP...

...he Buffalo PP controlled the puck for 1:40 before Ennis found Stafford in the blue for the goal. The Sabres forwards and D used fast hands and faster FEET to control the biscuit, thus, pulling the Leafs out of position. Ditto the Ehrhoff goal, where Vanek took a beating in the blue. Vanek is not ...
... the right place at the right time. “Yeah, I got a good taste out there tonight. I got to play quite a few minutes. It was good for me to get my FEET wet. I know what it’s like now so I can adjust as best as possible.” Ness knows his speed is his strong point and wants to get faster. ...
... Hyka came out of the penalty box. Read had been having some trouble finishing chances until last night, when he buried a shot upstairs from about 30 FEET away. On his own merits, Read has shown that he deserves serious consideration to make the opening night roster. The only factor that works again...
..." Something the Boston coach was happy to not see repeated on home-ice. "Big difference tonight," Julien noted after the game. "We were moving our FEET and filling the lanes and the puck was moving well." Yet, it wasn't a cakewalk by any stretch of the imagination. Falling behind early when Ne...
...ee Ekblad in pre-season, and I've talked to a few people who take in Barrie far more often than I. So far, it looks like he's still trying to get his FEET wet and learn how to be a fifteen year old in the Ontario Hockey League. He doesn't play a big man's game, but tries to attack the play defensive...
...not put the bust label on him just yet, but he is still a work in progress— with a lot of work left to do. - Nick Leddy can be all-world for 190 FEET and a trainwreck for the other 10. It's way too early to sound the alarm, but I was disappointed to see how physically manhandled he was a couple...
...ot only play physical but who actually has some great hockey skills. His excellent passing and great vision led to the Jeff Woywitka blast from 10 FEET out, making it a one-goal game half way through the second. Almost more important than his on-ice skill—which is considerable—he carries h...
...ugh a few of those AHL players warrant this as well) I would like to say something positive about this squad but all I can say is "Getting their FEET wet." There are a lot of players here who are young prospects and a ton who are absolute reclamation projects teetering on absolute wastes of spa...

...sby and his return to the ice. Not surprisingly, he was worth the wait. At 12:02:40 PM or thereabouts, the CONSOL Energy Center crowd stood on its FEET as “The Ferrari” made his way down the runway on onto the player’s bench area. Penguins coach Dan Bylsma shared a smile with Crosby and...
... hardest working prospect in the organization, is a player who simply seems to get bigger with each trip back to Boston. Standing at a hair under six FEET tall, the 32nd overall pick from a year ago has seemingly addressed his weak areas time and time again, and has remedied the undeniable flaws tha...
...round the net looking for rebounds. It's kind of cliché, but if the puck goes there and no one's at the net, it's tough to score on a goalie from 90 FEET from the net. Richard Park compares the organization now and then: The one common thing is that since I've known Pittsburgh, they've alw...
...all. Yahoo! Rank: 7th among defensemen, 45th overall. There's perhaps no defensemen in better shape than Boston's Zdeno Chara. At nearly seven FEET tall on skates, the 34-year-old blue-liner's effectiveness as Boston's anchor was simply immeasurable. Checking in with 14 goals and 30 assists a...
