...drip of talent out of the Chicago faucet over the last several years? I think that's part of it, too. All that said, in my opinion and from 30,000 FEET the Hawk penalty kill has typically been better than the power play over the years, and the power play does always seem stymied by a lack of move...
...nce and to be a good defensive player," Nantel told the Avalanche web site. "Be good defensively in my zone, take some faceoffs." Nantel, who is 6-FEET and 195 pounds. is in his first professional season after spending three full seasons with Rouyn-Noranda of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League...
...esjardins, even back then. Perhaps the writing was on the wall for Willie no matter how this season ended, with Green's AHL contract expiring and his FEET getting itchier. With the Utica Comets' season complete, I'm not sure how much longer Green would have been under contract with the Canucks or...
... positional play when the puck in not in Detroit’s possession. “When X plays his best, I think he manages his game real well, and he moves his FEET,” Ouellet said. “When he moves his FEET and manages the puck, he can be a real good passer but also he’s got to be aware he takes what’s ...
...n, which we saw against Carolina and Columbus, then yesterday by Ottawa. Rangers' opponents are clogging the neutral zone, forcing New York to go 180 FEET plodding up the ice rather than via stretch passes, which would enable the team speed to take over the game. In addition, its four men at the red...
...ome fairly significant change this summer. At least one "core" player (possibly Crawford, and/or someone else) traded. In the mean time, keep your FEET firmly planted on the ground and your eye on the horizon. It's about to get real "spinny" in here. JJ ...
...yed with the puck in the Montreal zone, getting the puck in deep, off which the Blueshirts could cycle and ultimately force the Canadiens to come 200 FEET through opposition. Thus, the Blueshirts owned an advantage in shot-attempt based possession stats for the first time, 54-39 in their favor after...
... If that's a punch, well, I brush my teeth harder than that. Instead, and not just in this case, look for the positioning of the referees. Seventy FEET away and looking across the crease is too far to have a good look or any sense of feel for the punch. Frank Udvari's Rule # 1 was "feel the game....
...rosby or Malkin or a Matt Cullen, he stopped so many plays before they got even got started. He was active in the rush, and brought the fans to their FEET scoring the Blue Jackets third goal. Here was the Nutivaara goal, the first of his career but the 3-0 lead didn't last too long...#CBJ #M...
...med like they were on the right track—until Krueger was abruptly relieved of his duties in favour of Dallas Eakins. Krueger landed nicely on his FEET. He joined the Southampton Football Club in the English Premier League in early 2014. At first, he was a director, but was quickly made team chai...
With Gionta unlikely returning as captain (if at all) the choice is now between 20 yr. old Eichel and 26 yr. old O'Reilly
...group that even the most playoff savvy men will feel it until the first shift is over. Me? I’m a wreck and I wont be able to take a shift to get my FEET back under me. I’m going to be at a 9/10 for stress all day and then when the puck drops I’ll have to have the kids ready to dial 9-1-1 in th...
...owna Rockets defenseman Cal Foote, the son of former Avalanche defenseman Adam Foote, is the third-rated defenseman and 12th overall. Foote, who is 6-FEET-4 and 210 pounds, had 57 points (six goals, 51 assists) in 71 games in his second season with the Western Hockey League team. Here are the CO...
...equently his pairing with Andrej Sekera. From Russell I’ve noticed a fair amount of jump in his legs. Certainly when he’s on his game he uses his FEET more and carries the puck. When he’s off his game he’s much more static and his breakouts consist of rimming the puck around the boards. It�...
...to stop momentum. One crucial lead held. All of these factors could have led to the Isles making the playoffs. All of these situations fall under the FEET of our absentee General Manager. I call him this because Garth is never around. When this team is floundering, where is he? You see him speak...
... on a drive from center slot. On the next shift, Hägg made a good pinch and Carolina's Matt Tennyson took a high-sticking penalty on Cousins several FEET away at 16:50. On the ensuing power play, Giroux sliced through the defense on the zone entry. A wide-open Voracek had the entire right side ...
...se the Hurricanes have been really struggling the past five games with losing men around the net. The lapse in covering and losing men within 3-5 FEET of the crease has resulted in a lot of pucks in the net—it doesn’t help that the rebound control from Ward/Lack hasn’t been ideal either. B...
... consistently better than the Hawks all season is their power play. Thus the Hawks will need to be the smart agitators (not the agitated), move their FEET and avoid lazy stick penalties against a Nashville team with good energy and speed—and get the kind of goaltending they’ve gotten versus Nash...
...round pick (No. 123) in the 2013 NHL draft. He's the second Pioneer to win the national player of the year award; Matt Carle won it in 2006. The 5-FEET-10, 190-pound Butcher is DU’s fourth-leading scorer with 37 points (seven goals, 30 assists) in 42 games. He has a plus-27 rating. The Avala...
...m as well as goalie Felix Sandström (who did not start a first-round game but has played in all three games in the second round) -- Carlsson got his FEET wet in North America with three AHL games before his call up to the big club. Rookie defenseman standout Zach Werenski suffered an upper-body ...
