...nothing to do with the outcome of that game. Of course, had Kubina's stick held, he might have won the match for the visitors with a slapshot from 25 FEET. But, the Leafs did not defend Tampa Bay's follow up rush particularly well. Instead, it is more relevant to compare the composite sticks to t...
...rt plays also. He got the assist on the go ahead goal (Ron, I hope this lets you know that good things happen when you put a puck on net instead of 3 FEET over it. Just trying to help), he blocked 2 shots and swept a puck away that was on the goal line to save the Jackets from starting a complete me...
... in the NHL. They both play a good physical game and both teams have unspectacular offenses with decent defenses. That means effort and keeping the FEET moving will become more important than in other games. 3. Crosby was busy scrapping with Ference last game, now they’ll have to watch out...
...ll alone in front of an empty net. The Stars second goal was again a little bit soft as Luongo couldn’t control Brendan Morrow’s shot/pass in his FEET with the puck bouncing to Antti Miettinen for a tap-in. Soft goals aside, Luongo was still Luongo and looked in complete control throughout ma...
... instant ticket into the next 20 years of highlight reels. Aaron Ward: He was a lot of fun to watch tonight and he had great hustle. He kept his FEET moving a lot, played over twenty-five minutes and came out of the game with an even plus/minus when most other d-men did not. Shot blocking and ...
...r’s seeing-eye blast from the point deflected off a defender then off the post behind him. It was a deflection of course, but it happened a good 30 FEET out from the net and we have all seen Brodeur make that save countless times in the past. The rest of the first period saw very few legitimate...
...ay that puck. What I didn't like was Michael Ryder taking a leisure skate back into the zone (while the puck is deep, in the corner), his man is five FEET away from him, and in better position to play a puck up the middle or off the boards...and wouldn't you know it, Mikey's too late to react. Now o...
... heavily into the boards in the third period, and the defenseman who committed the crime stood ready to engage somebody, anybody. Marleau rose to his FEET and shrugged it off before skating away. A crowd eventually gathered, but it was a half-hearted demonstration more than anything else. I'd pro...
...e? He had three points and was all over the ice. He is doing a great job on Crosby's wing and deserves a chance to stay there for a bit. He keeps his FEET moving and seems to get to the openings every time! His play with Crosby reminds me a lot of what Andy Hilbert was doing doing his brief tenure o...
...st was caught up on the glass and it was easy to understand how the bones in his hand snapped. The Leafs' defenceman crumpled to the ice, kicking his FEET in agony. He rose to his skates, glided towards the Toronto bench, and motioned for head trainer Rudy Cantu to meet him in the dressing room. The...
...tle seemed inevitable. On the 2nd Lupul goal, he made a great save on a breakaway, but if you DVR the play, he spent the next 4-5 seconds a full 4-5 FEET wide of the net while Gleason and Wesley tried to play goalie and Philadelphia fired away. He was similarly laying at the top of the crease whil...
... was called for a Charge on the play but it wasn't dirty hit, although I am sure King fans feel differently. Stuart took it upon himself to skate 100 FEET out from his zone to retaliate against Ruutu, not too smart. The hit was not an elbow to the head or a Charge to the back of a player facing the ...
...n) and you'd have to think that sooner or later more players will start cashing in. The problem is: it's too much pressure to lay all at one player's FEET; the Calgary Flames currently have 83 goals, Jarome Iginla has 39 points which means he's directly responsible for 47% of his team's scoring. It'...
...with flights. For a couple of nights, I was stranded in Plantation, Fla. (tough, huh?) and wasn't sure I'd be able to travel up to Philadelphia. Two FEET of snow fell in the Toronto area, and all kinds of revisions had to be made in order to attend the seven matches. For those not keeping track,...
...also. And even then...the real gem might be the "other" dman . . . Francois Beauchemin is only 27 years old, has a GREAT shot from the point, is 6 FEET tall, and well-over 200lbs. Sure, he'll cost more in a trade, but the kind of guy who will really is worth it. So, you missed out on Isles ...
...s will include elevating shots when the Coyotes block the puck’s path on a regular basis. In Friday’s loss, the Coyotes managed to stay on their FEET more so than in prior Kings’ games with only 14 shots’ blocked. Daniel Carcillo led the team Friday with 3 shots blocked. Face-offs is an...
...tant smattering of empty words, all heartfelt I'm sure, but in the end all talk. And talk will not make this team walk. This team needs to find their FEET again. Tonight, they play a Tampa team that has sat through their own trial and tribulations. They, despite quality play, still lack a star g...
...t they are… To be fair to Wideman, he has shown that he can at least put his name on the point sheet when his shot doesn’t miss the net by ten FEET. So, why is he being used as a defensive d-man? I would like Wideman (as a player, don’t read too much into that) a lot more if he was just u...
...aw the Kimmo Timonen pass to Mike Richards once here because of poor replays but it was a breakaway passed ruled offsides. Looked good to us from 180 FEET away. That was on a power play. Did we mention Marty Biron looks sharp. He's on his game tonight, thankfully. "It was a very defensive peri...
...im one of the most dignified players to ever wear a Leafs' jersey. It may sound like a small gesture for a multi-millionaire sports figure to walk 30 FEET towards fans calling his name, but believe me, it is not something that many would do. Then again, Mats Sundin should never be clumped into a gro...
