... is that they didn’t score a shorty. Goaltending – D- Nabokov had a rough night, allowing that first goal from Modano on a slapshot from 40 FEET out. That’s a save he has to make, and it would have changed the game. No excuses for that one. He also needs to make one of those saves on the...
...t on the game. Josh Gorges: What can I say? The kid played his first solid game as a Montreal Canadien. He made good breakout passes, he kept his FEET moving all night, and he honestly seemed a lot more comfortable out there than he's been all season. Too bad he'll be headed back to the pressbox...
... Red Army Team in the 1970's. The Devils could do nothing to get control of the puck. The Penguins also outskated their opposition and kept their FEET moving at all times, that translated into five New Jersey penalties. The Penguins were only able to cash in on one of their power play opportunit...
...sful cycle game. 4) Avoid Stick Infractions. The Senators have pace, and the Leafs will fall into a trap if they use their sticks instead of their FEET. The Sens take their chances when they're given. 5) Crowd Gerber's vision. Gerber will take them all day if his vision is not hampered by big,...
...ou have to be happy when your team executes the game plan with such accurate precision. The Canadiens played a rush type of game, and they kept their FEET moving at full speed right from the beginning. Put the puck in deep, hammer the D, and get them on their heels. After the first half of the game,...
...f fresh ice in front of him, on a third period PP, to walk in and unleash one. Classically he held onto the puck too long, brought it directly to two FEET from a defender and unleashed into his shinpads like a peewee player with his head down...I thought I heard an angry dad in the stands screaming:...
... team lost, I thoroughly enjoyed watching them get beat by a great skating and passing and shooting Penguins team! Crosby's goal in the 3rd was only FEET away from where I sit and partially brought me out of my seat. While I feel bad for Harding, he now can join the rest of NHL goaltenders victimi...
...roughout the game but could not finish enough of those chances. It's tempting to blame Chris Mason... it would also be silly to lay it all at his FEET. The Nashville netminder has a serious case of non-support from his teammates. They have given him exactly two goals in his past four starts. W...
...seconds for Detroit to even the score. For some inexplicable reason, Kevin Bieksa decided to try and knock the puck, which was traveling a good 5 FEET above his head, out of the air with his stick. Unfortunately, he was successful as the puck fell directly onto Pavel Datsyuk’s stick who immedi...
...' hit on Patrice Bergeron. I did not. But Bergeron - and every player _ has to accept responsibility for their own actions and bending over 4-5 FEET from the back boards on a dump 'n chase is stupid! He knew he was going to get hit. He made himself vulnerable. Randy Jones is the least vio...
...the net and stopping big rushes by the Devils. A few unnecessary penalties were taken by Dany Heatley last night and he was caught not moving his FEET when he was put in the box for slashing and crosschecking in the second period. Coach John Paddock didn't seem too impressed by the play of Heatl...
...aken, while Handzus was in the box. Then, Stoll scored which was no surprise to this fan since the Kings seemed frozen in place as if moving their FEET would have cost money and the guys were out of singles, seriously. Thankfully, that was an isolated example of the night. In fact, my in game...
... which hold the glass in place behind the back boards. Bergeron went down flat on his back and lay motionless for a few minutes before moving his FEET. He was taken off the ice on a stretcher with his head and neck immobilized. “It was the correct call,” Holmgren told me. “It’s unfor...
...t the Lightning, getting a – 1. He still managed 5 shots and was his usual scoring threat self. His menacing shot is nothing to mess with, once his FEET get going again his numbers will climb steeply. His rust was also evident at times during the game, as he bobbled the puck a few times on the blu...
... of Players a. Players may be changed at any time from the players' bench provided that the player or players leaving the ice shall be within five FEET (5') of his players' bench and out of the play before the change is made. (NEW for 2005-06)(NOTE 1) A team that is in violation of Rule 65 -- I...
... 8. Sabres and Canes are 50% on faceoffs. Hecht is 10-4 for 71% Brind'Amour is 11-6 for 65% ******** Buffalo are sleeping on their FEET in their end of the rink. ANOTHER undisciplined, stupid penalty by Sekera. Carolina will start the third on the PP. Buffalo will be without...
...r echo. In that case, Buffalo will have to be ready to skate. A tight forecheck game can kill a speed team like Buffalo-- if they don't move their FEET. Lindy Ruff has spent the better part of the past two weeks imploring his forwards to use their speed to win loose pucks and to create seams in ...
... Cristobal Huet made 31 saves in what probably could've been his first shutout of the year. Unfortunately he was beaten by a perfect wrister from 12 FEET out in the middle of the slot. Oh well! My friend said to me last night: "If you gave me five more years of Huet and Price, I could guarantee thi...
...de of the net. Only he and Luongo probably know if he successfully got Luongo to give up that 18X18 inch box short side high. He missed by a couple FEET anywway when he hit the side of the net, but the thought process was clearly that of a goal scorer not a 4th line grinder. First, in no way do...
...t “Youpi” who have been attending twice weekly voodoo classes. Before the game, Youpi and Streit were spotted furtively handing out lucky rabbit FEET to all Habs players and coaches. They were also seen placing cement around the hands of miniature doll versions of Patrice Bergeron, Marc Savard...
