...d a few things stood out. Patrick Brown Leading by Example Patrick Brown is no spring chicken. He’s not a young up-and-comer looking to get his FEET wet in the AHL. He has a ton of experience and he’s here to work and hopefully make an impression enough to take someone’s spot at the NHL le...
...s season under the rug. Is ownership counting on that? And here's a question I haven't asked so far. How much of this mess should fans lay at the FEET of ownership, and their aggressive spending freeze since Covid hit? That's something that was driven home for me this week in an article out of U...
... Erik Brannstrom’s game. With Thomas Chabot still sidelined, I thought Brannstrom stepped up in a significant way. He looked like he was moving his FEET. He looked like he was pushing the puck up ice. He looked like the kind of defenceman teams dream of finding either by way of trade or the draft....
...all games are often delayed because of rain. Saturday’s game was delayed because of sunshine. The heat generated by the sun at altitude -- 6,224 FEET above sea level in this case -- was just too much for the ice on a rink built on the 18th fairway of the Edgewood Tahoe Resort on the southern sh...
...tains, trees, and water. If you’ve never been, Lake Tahoe is pure beauty just outside the filth that is Reno, Nevada. While the location – 15 FEET from the water – provided beautiful aesthetics, it did come into play as far as the game play was concerned. Both goalies had new, bright visio...
... coughing up the puck are going to tilt the ice in their favor much of the time. That's half the battle as the next objective is to keep the puck 200 FEET away. This is where D-men who are adept at activating help to maintain pressure on offense through accurate passes, puck movement, non-stop mo...
...ill penalties. He doesn't score goals. Right now, the only thing Skinner is doing is skating very fast, shimmy-shaking opposing defensemen from 40-50 FEET out and logo sniping enemy goalies. I have a recommendation. If Skinner continues to struggle, Krueger should healthy scratch him and play rookie...
...strom’s Return The last paragraph sort of gives this one away; Erik Brannstrom was phenomenal in his return to the lineup. His ability to move his FEET is something that many of his counterparts on the Ottawa blue line lack. With his dynamic presence in the lineup, this is a better hockey club. T...
...cting a full roster for Thursday and Sunday? Any update with the coaches? Alain and Michel Therrien, were they able to come back? AV’s about 10 FEET behind me, just waiting for me to get away from the mic so he can speak to you guys. Every day’s a new day. After what we’ve been through the...
...ev Kurashev continues to defy his critics who have previously questioned his capacity to push the pace. One way he is doing this is by keeping his FEET moving and being strong on the puck. Reese Johnson Averaging a hit every minute and a half of ice time with 17 hits in a little over 25 min...
...% and a five-on-five shot attempt share of 75% per Natural Stat Trick. Thumbs Up: The Tyler Johnson Redemption Tour When Tyler Johnson moves his FEET, he can still be an effective player for this Bolts team. This evening, that happened when he and Mathieu Joseph teamed up to pull the Lightning ...
...eriod to make it a 5-2 game – setting up the comeback – and an assist on the overtime winner. Beyond that, though, he was consistently moving his FEET and the puck in the right direction. He can do a little bit of everything for this Senators squad, and has quickly become one of the team’s mor...
...propel the Bolts to the finish line. Here are yesterday’s thumbs: Thumbs Up: Andrei Vasilevskiy’s First Period Before the Lightning got their FEET under them, they were once again reliant on their all-star goaltender. He stopped 11 shots against in the first period, while the guys in front o...
...back of the net, Toffoli retrieved the puck from the boards, passed it to Petry who launched a shot that Gallagher tired to tip. The puck fell to his FEET and he only had to lift it above Andersen who had already committed himself: 2-1. The Canadiens then held on to win their first match in 3 games ...
...to the end boards by Milan Lucic early in the second period, and did not return. Great job by the official to watch Lucic board Justin Bailey mere FEET away and not call a penalty. Now Bailey is injured and won't return https://t.co/ZhZadpxNQ4 pic.twitter.com/9ZWkxQE11R— NHL Safety Watch (@NHLS...
...irelli who was credited with the 2-0 goal, but Sergachev did all the work on that man-advantage opportunity to make it happen. When he’s moving his FEET and has the puck on his stick, Sergachev is one of the most dynamic young defenders in the league. He was ‘on’ last night, both at even stren...
...at line has just lost a lot of speed. Furthermore, it’s possible that sooner rather than later, Julien will want to give Frolik a chance to get his FEET wet so to speak and it’s worth remembering that he is a penalty kill specialist, that can always come in handy. Finally, Carey Price was on...
...n stride. Or, at least, is saying the right things. Miller on Saturday exchange with Holtby: "A lot of that goal happens because I'm not moving my FEET. There's nothing wrong with holding your teammates accountable and that happens a lot. We're moving past it. We just need to take our game to ano...
... of the team’s scoring plays, Mikhail Sergachev looked “on” tonight, at least by my eye. When he’s playing with confidence, he’s moving his FEET and engaging in the offensive zone. He was doing those things against the Red Wings, utilizing his skating ability to making opposing checkers lo...
