December 2, 2017 - 4:54 PM ET

...kes all over the ice, that just happened to be a glaring one." Compher tied the game, but the Devils went ahead at 6:11 of the third period when 6-FEET-6 forward Brian Boyle banged in a loose puck on a power play after Varlamov made a glove stop against Taylor Hall but didn't catch the puck or co...

Jan Levine: Game 26: NYR-CAR, Zib out with concussion, McD back, my takes

December 1, 2017 - 8:09 AM ET

... a hit by Radko Gudas. Individually, each is not good, but collectively, the story is worse. Hit by Darren Helm causing concussion: Helm leaves FEET to make contact and well after puck was moved, why should either be considered a problem. Zib took a few extra beats to get back up https://t.co/...

...ill needs a lot of filling out but he does many things that cannot be taught. His ice vision and passing touch are of very high caliber. He has great FEET with both speed and quickness but also a knack for slowing down the game and then springing to action. He also has good two-way instincts (althou...

...ills and power echelon. Ditto the finesse forward Duchene. Kane is a five tool forward. He can kill an opponent with his quick release, insanely fast FEET, deft passing, thunderous body checks and hands of a neurosurgeon. Kane can play a dominant role in the top three lines and would be the type ...

...renches. There's no argument here that Weise (not strong enough with the puck, not playing nearly as feisty as he was in the past) and Lehterä (slow FEET, reluctant to shoot) have not been sufficiently effective in their roles to justify not scoring on top of it. That raises a potential need fo...

...as the key." Lindholm chose chicken and mashed potatoes when he finally was able to eat solid food. He also enjoys salmon. Lindholm, who is 5-FEET-11 and 191 pounds, will wear extra facial protection for a while and said he'll continue to block shots, a big part of his game. “My kind of...

Lucas Neilson: Wild Wild West; Leafs douse Flames

November 29, 2017 - 2:54 PM ET

... it just may be time for Nylander to have a few games working hard on the fourth line. It happened last season for Willam and it got him moving his FEET more and that’s when he went on a tear and had that crazy ten game point streak. Babcock has his wise coaching ways of knowing his players...

Todd Cordell: Hall playing MVP-caliber hockey + upcoming schedule bodes well for Devils

November 29, 2017 - 12:32 PM ET

...I can overstate how big that is for the Devils. They've already banked enough points to put themselves in a spot where they can stumble over their FEET a little bit and still make the playoffs. For example, a 27-24-7 record to finish the season would give them a ~76% chance of getting to the danc...

...body," Giroux said. The lone highlight for the Flyers came at the 48-second mark of the game. From a tight angle just ahead of the goal line a few FEET from the left post, Giroux took a tape-to-tape feed from Voracek and deftly chipped it home for a 1-0 lead. Voracek got his 23rd assist of the se...

Matt Henderson: G23 Oilers vs Sabres: Keeping McDavid and Draisaitl Apart

November 24, 2017 - 1:56 PM ET

...a team that isn’t naturally fast. I mean, they have McDavid who is dialed to 11 always, but after that the club has to make an effort to move their FEET. When Johann Auvitu plays he may feel like a total wildcard, but he does force the team to get the lead out. Auvitu is a defender who finds himse...

...ieve that I can help the team more by playing center, I’m more than fine with that. “I’ve said it before, but you still have to play the 200 FEET whether in the middle or at wing. And while there are some differences, I don’t think playing either position has all that much of an impact on...

If there's one thing I've learned this year its that if you have been struggling, the Habs will help you get back on your FEET so look for Johansen to turn in a multi point performance to get back on track.
