...om THREE KEYS 1) Push the pace. The Canucks played against the Blackhawks last night while the Devils sat and watched. They need to keep their FEET moving, distribute the puck quickly and make it as difficult as possible for the Canucks to keep up. 2) The Devils' offense has been good for ...
...fend by packing the three PKers between the dots and blocking shots, clearing pucks so that the Buffalo PP has to skate down, retrieve and travel 200 FEET north to try again. “It’s tough, a couple of bounces, obviously it’s something we need to work on,” Eichel said after the Dallas lo...
