July 1, 2016 - 4:27 PM ET

...Mikkel Boedker to San Jose. Sakic wasn't available to comment on the day's outcome. Colborne, 26, signed a two-year, $5 million contract. The 6-FEET-5, 220-pounder had career highs for goals (19) and assists (25) in 73 games last season for Calgary, which curiously didn't tender him a qualifyi...

June 29, 2016 - 4:30 PM ET

...ban is gone. Therrien snd Subban often butted heads. Therrien insisted in stifling Subban's creativity. Subban wanted to take the puck and gallop 200 FEET with it. Frankly, I love watching Subban play hockey. He's a performer and a producer. I would have canned Therrien before I traded Subban. Be...

...is career, Bellows is also going to need a coach who can live with his limitations and not start making him a healthy scratch if he's not playing 200 FEET and he's also not putting enough pucks in the net to justify it.

...ot on net. Reunanen transitions the puck quickly and likes to join the attack as a trailing option. He has decent agility, speed and quickness in his FEET, but lacks explosiveness, something that will likely improve with added leg strength. His defensive game has some areas that are strong and need ...

GARTH'S CORNER: Topsy Turvy Top 10

June 24, 2016 - 9:05 PM ET

.... More on that later. I love Nylander's skill and his improvisational skills. He has a full suite of skills that includes fast hands, faster FEET, a bomb of a shot and a nose for the net. He inherited his scoring prowess from his father Miichal Nylander who was once dubbed "The Swedish G...

...next level? “I see him taking another step forward next year. He plays a heavy, North American-style game but the one concern scouts have is his FEET are a tad heavy.” If Kuznetsov works on his skating he could be a great mid to late round pickup. The final player from the QMJHL that I ...

Tim Panaccio: What Hextall Said At Pre-Draft Presser

June 17, 2016 - 2:00 PM ET

...ts people in stride when our team executes we’re a pretty fast team. When we don’t execute, we’re not. If you start putting pucks in people’s FEET it slows everyone’s momentum down, slows your speed down, slows your pressure down. Obviously if you have good players who can execute, you’r...

But Jones and h...

Follow me on Twitter @ToddCordell At the end of the New Jersey Devils' season finale Patrik Elias had fans on their FEET chanting "one more year" following a magical three-point performance. It seems like those fans just might get their wish. Elias' agent, Allan Walsh, told Sportsnet that h...

June 5, 2016 - 2:23 PM ET

...piece of advice most of us would give him, it's don't think, just skate. When he overanalyzes, that's when his play tails off. In addition, keep your FEET moving, because hen he stops, he gets caught watching the play, rather than reacting. React don't think, then maybe it will all come together. ...

May 25, 2016 - 1:03 AM ET

...Jonathan Drouin said. "Too much time in the first two periods was them skating and going wherever they wanted. We were just pressuring and moving our FEET more in the third. That’s the way we have to start from the get go in Game 7.'' So now a back-and-forth series heads back to Pittsburgh once...
