Though the NHL has always been a business, first, Fletcher is a hockey man with compassion. Let’s see how that amalga...

... got his bell rung on Weight's open ice hit, and that the news tomorrow morning will be good. It was encouraging to see him leave the ice on his own FEET, but any speculation on what exactly this means is just a guess. When will the NHL get it and make any hit to the head a big no-no? The NFL o...

...stian Ehrhoff in front of Smith. Ehrhoff has easily become one of the best defensemen for the Sharks, and he made that goal happen just by moving his FEET. The only knock I have at Ehrhoff would be taking a bad holding penalty at the end of the second period. - Devin Setoguchi scored his fifth g...

It often seems to happen when they fire side-angle shots at his FEET and crash the net for some rebound goals on the other side. Over the bulk of his career, however, Brodeur has owned the Flyers (42-22-1 with six ...

From what I see 180-FEET diagonal to the ice, there are foreign bodies all over Biron. He doesn't have a chance on rebounds. Here's what Timonen told me last night: ...
