...He split time with the Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL and Stalnye Lisy Magnitogorsk of Russia’s junior league, the MHL, this past season. A 6-FEET-1, 192-pound center, Shvyrev had 17 points (five goals, 12 assists) in 10 games with Stalnye Lisy. He had one goal in 32 games with Metallurg and...
... Pettersson continues to showcase his superb puck skills and shiftiness. Listen to the crowd’s reaction after puts the puck through that player’s FEET. “He’s got that great offensive arrogance.” – @mike_p_johnson. #Canucks #TSNHockey pic.twitter.com/39jIcwCCQR— Grady Sas (@GradySas) Ma...
...hich allowed them a few shot attempts from around the blue paint. But Andrei Vasilevskiy was excellent. There were gorgeous breakout passes of ten FEET or less, but the secret of Tampa Bay’s success is simpler than it looks. The Lightning were fast to retrieve and their players without the puck...
...norant as it was) as to whether this should be a suspension just shows how far the NHL needs to still go to protect it's players. Wilson left his FEET to make a hit, and smashed a guy in the face so hard his jaw broke. Que the pathetic cries of 'You never played the game,' the sexist cries...
...n Logan Couture. But I started to sense a bit of arrogance in MAF. There was a sly smirk on his face after some of his save and he even stayed on his FEET a few time to knock pucks down. The NBC guys made mention of it on the broadcast. I keyed in on this for the rest of the game and I realized...
.... Wilson is a repeat offender. I watched the above replay several times. Puck is gone a beat or two, so he isn’t playing the puck. He leaves his FEET prior to contact. In addition, if principal point of contact isn’t the head, it’s 1a. Aston-Reese has a concussion and broken jaw. Wilson’s...
...e back of the jersey and reputation are not matching the play on the ice. The difficulty he had on the shot-pass from Stralman over what was about 40 FEET of ice was alarming. In this series, Stamkos can’t really puck-handle at all because the Bruins are so quick at closing on puck-carriers. He wa...
... attacker into the flow and put the puck on net in the Pens end, a controversial sequence ensued. As Pens player headed to the bench, still a good 10 FEET from the bench and not skating with any vigor, his replacement jumped onto the ice early, a good way up the bench. Thus, the Penguins gained 20 f...
...ive, quixotic pass. Stamkos would attempt to send the puck across to a forward charging at the net on the weak side, or offer a low-percentage, forty-FEET-plus pass east-west instead of taking a shot from the wing. Same With Miller. Hell, Kucherov had a breakaway off a Severson gaff in Game 5 and di...
...fensemen in the league to beat 1-on-1. They're right; just follow Vlasic around on this shift: "He's fast," said Marchessault. Not just his FEET, but his stick and mind. These were a couple of my favorite plays from the aforementioned shift: View post on imgur.com Here, Marchessault ...
...5 5v4 Individual Corsi For is second in the NHL (out of 71 defensemen, 100+ 5v5 minutes). In front of the net, the 5'11" Erik Haula's quick hands and FEET have helped him lead the league with a 44.0 5v4 Shooting % (out of 280 skaters, 100+ 5v5 minutes). Haula's 12 power play goals top the team. U...
...'s pretty clear that Buchnevich isn't shedding terms on Vigneault's departure. Not all the blame for Buchnevich's uneven season can be laid at the FEET of the coach. As jimbo said in the comments, Buchnevich "only scored one goal after January 21st, and only 3 after December 13th and only 5 of hi...
...y were also brought in by the club and anchored Rochester's defense through the early part of the season while a group of youngins were getting their FEET wet. Amongst those youngins was forward CJ Smith who was voted as the team's Rookie of the Year and first year pros Brendan Guhle and Sean Ma...
...rrow night, it doesn’t get any more meaningful than that. From that standpoint, it’s very exciting to get the opportunity. “For me to get my FEET wet in the series was important, and overall it helps going into tomorrow night. It’s about trusting all your preparation, because especially a...
... Kopitar's line impressively: Kopitar's line has just iced the puck. Kopitar wins the draw to Alec Martinez, but William Carrier keeps his FEET moving through a Dion Phaneuf pick and sticks the puck away from Martinez. Carrier drives the net but goes wide. Along the wall, Kopitar picks...
... you think of him coming up at the time of year that he did in a pressurized playoff run, and Oskar came in and it took him a couple games to get his FEET wet and adjust to the level of play, but he did that," Hakstol said. "Right now, Oskar, being honest, I think he’s going through some of tha...
...the goal served as Matthews’ first with Bergeron matched up against him at five-on-five play this season. “It felt like an earthquake in your FEET,” Matthews said. “It’s definitely emotional and very exciting.” Down by a goal in the third period, the Bruins threw everything they c...
...ssenger on the great Pens teams, then kind of dumped for salary reasons, it's awesome to see one of the best guys to cheer for in the NHL land on his FEET. What Vegas is doing seems ridiculous and shouldn't be happening, but it's impossible to not cheer for Fleury. Peter Tessier I could ta...
...d by 13 goals (25th in offense to 22nd). He is not the only one to blame, but most certainly a lot of the failures this season lands right on the FEET of the head coach. If not for the track record of the revolving door behind the bench, I think Boucher would already be gone. He looked like ...
...he training wasn't there" over the summer, and that he felt "disjointed" because he "didn't have the base, didn't have the mechanics." He did get his FEET under him finishing with 11 goals and 20 assists in his final 46 games. That stretch equates to a .674 points-percentage which is one point below...
