...ng that job and a large majority who work somewhere in between. Here's the thing about hockey scouts. Most of them are good guys. I've sat three FEET away from them for years, and watched what they do. I've realized that there's a huge gap between the ones who excel and the significant populati...
...one entry. When Laviolette's system clicks, it's highly entertaining to watch and has proven effective. However, when his players don't have their FEET moving, get out of synch with one another (such as lapses in gap control) or if his roster does not have a sufficient puck moving capabilities, t...

...natural goal scorer in the draft, but red flags abound. "Is he Patrick Kane or is he Robbie Schremp?" said a scout. "He is 100 percent accountable 15 FEET from the net, but the further he gets and the further outside the middle of the ice he gets, it gets lower." (The Hockey News excerpt from May...
... Center. Avalanche draft picks defenseman Sergei Boikov and forward Julien Nantel scored goals Wednesday in Colorado's 4-3 overtime win. The 6-FEET-2, 200-pound Boikov was the Avalanche's sixth-round pick (No. 161) in the 2015 NHL draft. He has has 1-3-4 and six penalty minutes in 12 playoff ...

Focus on Patrick with and without the puck, his positional awareness and FEET, his anticipation, reads and engagement in the play, passing and shooting skills, use of teammates, back pressure, forechecking routes, etc. ...
...'s the team's second-leading scorer with seven points (two goals, five assists) in six games. As well as he's playing and enjoying his time, the 6-FEET-4, 211-pound forward would be happier if the Avalanche had made the Stanley Cup playoffs. They didn't come close, finishing a distant last in the...
...vince my dad to get a satellite dish to watch hockey.....Not the kind that is 20 inches or smaller and fixed to your roof. The 1980s kind that was 9 FEET across and moved to face specific satellites...so I could get the feeds of games from all across the country... These are in the days way before ...
...ian defenseman Andrei Mironov to a two-year, entry-level contract. Mironov, 22, was their fourth-round pick (No. 101) in the 2015 NHL draft. The 6-FEET-3, 194-pound Moscow native spent the past five seasons with Dynamo Moscow of the Kontinental Hockey League. Mironov had one goal, three assis...
...valanche "within a few days." Mironov, 22, has spent the past five seasons with Dynamo Moscow in the Kontinental Hockey League. Mironov, who is 6-FEET-3 and 194 pounds, reportedly has received a verbal release from the KHL team but needs one in writing. He was the Avalanche's fourth-round pick (...
...e the game and unleash joy at Bridgestone Arena. Pred Nation was back into it, which is where they would remain for the rest of the game. ON their FEET, cheering, chanting, urging, begging their team forward… and the Predators fed off the energy. Closing out the period tied, with momentum on th...
...vist made a lousy attempt at clearing the puck around the boards, which started the play. Rather than leaving it for Ryan McDonagh who was just a few FEET away or tapping it to him, Lundqvist cleared it past McDonagh to Zack Smith, who fed Chris Wideman at the point. Wideman's shot should have been ...
...arlsson later in the frame, which also seemed to hurt Ottawa's captain. After taking a hit along the boards, Karlsson was slow to get back to his FEET but finally made his way to the bench. When he needed to return to the locker room at intermission, Karlsson struggled to put weight on his left ...
...to the smaller North American rinks. Mironov was Colorado's fourth-round pick (No. 101) in the 2015 NHL draft. A left-shooting defenseman, he is 6-FEET-3 and 194 pounds. Said to be a smooth skater with a mean streak, Mironov had one goal, three assists, 10 penalty minutes and a plus-2 rating in 1...
...Rick Nash a free lane to the net. The fourth Rangers' goal wasn't so much a breakdown by the Senators, but a pick play by Tanner Glass, kicking the FEET out from under Dion Phaneuf that left the Senators defenseman down and the rest of the Ottawa players scrambling before J.T. Miller found Oscar L...
... Here's what I looked at when I watched the Niskanen - Crosby hit. Yes, Niskanen has his stick up. However, watch his posture and his actions. His FEET are spread wide apart. There's no thrust with the stick. He is just holding it there. This is consistent with Niskanen's claim that he was braced...

One sequence where Viktor Stalberg and Mark Stone were both denied in close with what looked like 24 square FEET of open net stands out in addition to Nash's opportunity. In what had been a fairly evenly officiated game, the officials absolutely blew a c...

Likewise, the R2 referee stationed 70 FEET away may not actually it from that distance and while looking through and around the players on the ice. NHL Rule 61.1 is one of the more mis...
