...horoughly trounced. So what the heck was going on? I have no idea. I also saw them good on the night. Oesterle can skate very well, Reinhart had calm FEET and played physically. It looked good on TV at any rate. Still, being -18 and -19 in shot attempts is ugly. I’m interested in seeing how the du...

...2016. My first exposure to Kasdorf's game was last July at Buffalo's rookie development camp. I was thoroughly impressed with his fast hands, fast FEET, and aggressive style where that allowed him to venture out of his crease to take away angles from enemy shooters. I also liked his ability to ma...

...em. But it shouldn't have been that close. Andrew Hammond allowed a couple of weak goals, first to Jeff Skinner after he misplayed a puck at his FEET and the puck squirted to Skinner in the slot who had the empty cage.

...nst a Flyers team that had heaps of motivation and urgency. “We were just moving,” Flyers head coach Dave Hakstol said. “We were moving our FEET. We were aggressive and we caught them a little flat-footed that period and we were able just to hold that momentum through the 20 minutes. Somet...
It shouldn't come a surprise, but Avalanche coach Patrick Roy said after practice Friday that Calvin Pickard will start again in goal Saturday against Nashville at the Pepsi Center.
