...eir tails and didn't get as much love. But then again, we don't have Lemaire behind the Isles bench. While everyone was throwing roses at Lemaire's FEET for turning the Devils' season around, Jack Capuano quietly made his team better. Will wait to hear the morning report from the Rock as soon a...
...no one could have called was the 'insurance goal of the game' TM when Aaron Rome made like Russ Howard and lifted the puck up over and down from 190 FEET with perfect draw weight. Henrik Sedin was there to sweep if necessary but the calls from the other end of the ice were heard and Rome got the go...
... But they can also outskate just about any team in the NHL. What really impressed me last night was the way the Hawks used their speed and kept their FEET moving in the third period, drawing penalty after penalty. Patrick Kane was terrific. Duncan Keith had an outstanding game (after a miserable...
...of the first period and 00:56 of the second) provided the visitors their initial lead of the night. Grabovski whizzed a high shot past Luongo from 30 FEET at 11:44 of the middle period to knot the count again in a terrific match. The killer moment for the Leafs occurred with just 6:24 remaining; ...
...players going to the net on a regular basis there is rarely anyone there to pick up rebounds, screen the goalie or deflect the puck. Shots from 25 FEET out with no one in front tend to get gobbled up by NHL netminders. Fixing this issue is a matter of testicular fortitude and, sadly, this is s...
... Yet another key indicator of getting outplayed: The Flyers seemed to be starting up ice all night from deep in their own end, having to travel 200 FEET. Meanwhile, how many times did the Bruins take over possession anywhere from the offensive zone circles to the defensive blueline? That forced ...
...e coverage to allow Samsonov to freely walk out ofreely to a sogft slot. Zero Dzone fronting and puck pressure. *** Sabres refuse to move their FEET on every shift. They look content to coast. **** Thankfully, the period ends with score ties at 1s. Buffalo wins shots, 10-6 *_________...
...n down by Tampa's #2, but it was only deemed an interference penalty. Probably because Grabner and his amazing speed was taken down, got back to his FEET and got a shot off that Roli had to save. He is pretty special that Micheal Grabner! And speaking of "special" how about Frans Nielsen and hi...
...penalties with speed. *** 2nd Period: Buffalo come out in an angrier mood-- they can't get a penalty call to save their lives. Move your FEET and you'll get one. stand around and you will not. 1-1 mancari and Goose play hell's Angels on the forecheck as Gerbe finds a puck and beat...
... has not played in 24 games or seen any action as a Ranger this year, will be between the pipes against Pitt. Not the best way for the kid to get his FEET wet this year, but the team will need to step up their play around him if he goes. I expect the lineup to be the same, though could see Gilroy ge...
...ily scored on Clemmensen to win the game. At first, I thought perhaps Rick’s new mask was keeping him from seeing the puck well as it was at his FEET in the crease early in the game and came dangerously close to being swatted in by the Panthers if not for some quick work by the Isles defense. ...
...ied the puck down the ice, shadowed by P.K. Subban, and was ultimately able to push a pass out front to Johansson who fired it past Price from five FEET away. David Desharnais, who was supposed to be covering Johansson, was caught watching the puck instead of his man which is what left the C...
... opposed to knocking one another out of the lineup. While I agree there isn’t a place in today’s game for flying elbows and players leaving their FEET to deliver hits, we need to at least understand that players are trying to hurt one another out there. And that’s ok. Shaking up your oppone...
...gularity, he needs to do what he did against the Penguins Saturday. Of the 16 goals he's scored, I'm not sure how many have been from within five FEET of the net. Sufficed to say not enough of them have been hard-work goals, and he'd have a lot more to show for his efforts if his efforts were co...
... They've had chances. After bringing the Blue Jackets within one earlier in the third Derick Brassard rung one off the post with only about 20 square FEET of net to shoot at with less than 4 minutes remaining. The Union Blue responded by giving up a brutal goal to Justin Williams 2 minutes later...
...wide open nets by being to nonchalant with their shots. Two attempts by Jokinen should have be easy layups, and one shot by Sarich that sailed a few FEET wide. How many of you Flames fans were out there screaming, "YOU HAVE TO HIT THE NET!"? With Phoenix win and Calgary's loss the Yotes moved a...
...garnered a reputation for cheap or rancorous behavior. And, b) any National Hockey League player measuring (in full and sweat-soaked equipment) seven-FEET and 280 pounds will occasionally cause an opponent to feel pain. The vast majority of players on the receiving end of a Chara hit are three-quart...
...ould not find any evidence to suggest that, beyond this being a correct call for interference, that Chara targeted the head of his opponent, left his FEET or delivered the check in any other manner that could be deemed to be dangerous. “This was a hockey play that resulted in an inju...
...ould not find any evidence to suggest that, beyond this being a correct call for interference, that Chara targeted the head of his opponent, left his FEET or delivered the check in any other manner that could be deemed to be dangerous". Chara's "good guy" reputation was taken into consideration b...
...le videos demonstrating the play of each player when they get drafted - The video for Plante showed him skating three steps and tripping over his own FEET. Things don't seem to have changed much. - Am I the only one who thinks the Oilers really need to spend some money next season on a few free a...
