...e money is. Work tight to the net by skating to open space and boomeranging the net. On the second day of officiating Stewy said to me, keep your FEET moving, referee. Hustle out out of the zone. When the players are moving up keep your FEET moving, too. You will be able to make better determina...
...ks. He was skating well and making the right decisions while his puck-control was off the charts. The Sabres first goal was created by him moving his FEET without the puck then knowing when to get rid of it. His pass from up near the blueline deflected off of linemate Evander Kane's skate as he was ...
..." and that "he wins every foot race when he has the chance to shoot the puck or win the puck." But May concludes simply that Eichel "doesn't move his FEET enough" and he believes that the talented rookie "has been given a free pass." May qualified everything he said mentioning that during his car...
...rk had a 19-2 advantage. After having 3 days off and a bit of a flu bug running through the locker room, it took 20 minutes for Florida to get their FEET under them. Jagr, Petrovic, and MacKenzie are considered day to day, with Jagr likely back tomorrow at New Jersey. Petrovic is on the trip wi...
...make decisive black-and-white rulings even when there is a lot of gray area in a tough situation. I want tough-minded arbiters who are quick on their FEET and quick with their minds while showing calm under pressure. The game also needs officials who can keep up with the physical rigors of the s...
..., figuring that for just the one game, go with the veteran. If longer, Brady Skjei could get the call, since he would have a chance to really get his FEET wet with consistent playing time. Of course, you could argue that giving Skjei one game to give him a taste of NHL action could make more sense t...
...ion timeout. Shots for the period were 4-4 at this point. After Niemi denied a Schenn deflection in front, Neuvirth stoned Vernon Fiddler from 15 FEET away on a Dallas 2-on-1 to keep the deficit to one goal with 16:56 left in regulation. The Flyers changed up some of their line combinations i...
...s nowhere near the play and it was trying to take the lazy way out. Ill-timed because at the same time Chris Wideman was also taking a penalty a few FEET away. Both were called and the result was a full 2 minute 5-on-3. Just when it looked like the Senators were going to get out of it unscathe...
... the Dan Boyle slapshot. In the moment, my eye was on the ensuing scramble in front of the net before I saw Hamhuis face down on the ice, kicking his FEET in obvious distress. He got off the ice under his own power, but left a lot of blood in his wake. No further update yet beyond this, from afte...
...om line is...the Sharks did not play well, especially in their own end. The San Jose defenders looked like statues on skates. Nobody was moving their FEET which allowed the Flames to dance around the zone unimpeded, passing the puck at will. To be honest, it reminded me of the type of hockey the...
...mmonds right-circle shot for a TV timeout at 6:57, shots for the period were 10-1 Flyers (25-10 for the game at that juncture). Bellemare kept his FEET moving to draw a penalty on Marek Zidlicky for interference at 12:56. The Flyers seemingly cashed it in to tie the game as the rebound of a Jakub...
...n makes his share of mistakes but recovers more often than not. Why? It's because he never gives up on the play and has a quick stick as well as fast FEET. As a result, Gostisbehere may get beaten initially but he'll make the defensive play on a second effort. Overall, his initial reads are improvi...
...4 of the last 5 and 6 of the last 9 (2-4-6). Let him soak up the experience of being with the team and possibly get him into a game to really get his FEET wet. For Saturday’s practice, Vigneault juggled his forward lines yet again, moving Lindberg between Kreider on the left and Rick Nash on th...
...h an upper body injury. Miller took a Klas Dahlbeck shoulder check directly on the chin and wobbled around the ice like a boxer who was out on his FEET. Officials immediately blew the play dead and Miller, who has played in 190 consecutive games, was helped to the dressing room. “We’re sti...
...ure for much of the frame. Mason continued to track shots well through traffic and control his rebounds. Midway through the period, Simmonds kept his FEET moving in the offensive zone and was tripped up by Mark Borowiecki. The Flyers generated two good scoring chances on the ensuing power play but w...
...and I agree) is only worth a single game and no major penalty, or when a guy gets his ribs broken because an idiot smokes him from the blindside ten FEET from the boards, of which the justification for not suspending him is as idiotic as the hit. At a certain point - I believe already reached -...
...t Hägg (who did not have a particularly good game) caught up ice, Morin hurriedly tried to clear a loose puck from behind Ouellette (who was several FEET out from the crease) but instead put it right off the goalie's leg and right to a Bruins player for a turnover and a virtual empty-netter for Ant...
...s that it was full price for a player who isn’t a sure thing. Still, there are parts of Reinhart’s game that are to like. Notably, he has calm FEET and a developing physicality. When he does play I haven’t seen him called away on dog whistles only he can hear to get sucked out of position. ...
...wever, didn’t agree. “In our opinion, it was a late hit,” Rangers coach Alain Vigneault said. “More than a second, and he was a couple of FEET away from the boards. So we’ll have to wait and see. I remember Aaron Rome in this building, 0.6 seconds late, getting suspended four games in ...
...ve ability that makes him a reliable player for the top 6. Nurse’s raw abilities also make him a pleasure to watch, but it’s the fact that his FEET are calming down that makes me most happy. In the last game he was playing tough minutes against a good team and looked cool as a cucumber. Watch...
