| » Kings beat down Blue Jackets | |||||
| Mar 09, 2010 - 8:27 PM - by Mateo | |||||

The Kings needed that. They needed to be reminded that they have the skill to beat teams they are supposed to. And as sweet as the win was against Columbus, it wasn't that sweet. Again, this is a team the Kings are supposed to beat. It was pretty impressive to see the team completely clamp down on the Jackets. Only five shots given up by L.A. is pretty dominating. I bet Quick could have played without a mask, and probably enjoy a hot dog and a Coke during some of those stretches. The Kings' power play continues to get better, connecting three out of six times. When Rick Nash got a double minor for giving the high stick to Rob Scuderi, it opened the door for a two-fer. Michal Handzus and Alexander Frolov scored twice in less than a minute to effectively knock out the Blue Jackets. Although, it also could've been Wayne Simmonds goal, from Modin ans Scuderi to start the scoring. Or Drew Doughty's tally 8 minutes later, from Handzus and Frolov. With his goal, Doughty is now tied for second in defenseman scoring. Over at ESPN.com, they have a "trophy tracker", which gives you a sneak peak at what to expect for the postseason awards. Right now, the leader for the Norris Trophy is Washington's Mike Green, who's 64 points and gaudy +32 in plus/minus some of the major factors for being in the "lead", if there is such a thing. Then again, last year's winner, Zdeno Chara, didn't lead in any of the categories. What does that mean? That's right, Drew Doughty has a definite shot to win the Norris this season.

| » 2009-2010 NHL trade deadline audit | |||||
| Mar 09, 2010 - 10:53 AM - by gescom | |||||

here is the complete list (at least i think it's complete) of every trade and wire acquisition throughout the league starting with the Dion Phaneuf and J.S. Giguere trades (and to borrow a popular term from our pal Eklund - the first dominos) on January 31st, on through the official trade deadline on March 3rd. there is a WHOLE lot to consider here, and as you can see, this idea of picking "winners" and "losers" isn't necessarily as cut and dry as one may think... despite how eager even the most reputable pundits will rush to conclude. often times the significant impact of these moves aren't determinable for some time, and can also often take years to even reach finality. discuss. Anaheim Ducks
Atlanta Thrashers
Boston Bruins
Buffalo Sabres
Calgary Flames

| » Dustin Brown; Olympic Sized Observations of our misunderstood Friend | |||||
| Feb 27, 2010 - 10:32 AM - by Hipcheck | |||||
|
Watching the US Olympic team, mostly on tape delay or Tivo’d, has given me a bit of extra time to focus specifically on Dustin Brown and what he brings to a team and what he brings as a player. Often criticized for not scoring enough or not being a true leader, watching Browns Olympic play has made me realize that while not being the scoring machine we would have hoped for-Brown has a couple of assets that while often misunderstood are invaluable to any team he plays. While not putting up big numbers during the Olympics it would be a falsehood to say he’s been invisible or not contributing. Here is what I have noticed in the Olympics and how it relates to Browns play in the NHL. 1) Skating Ability/Fundamental Play 2) Clean Hard Play Draws Penalties 3) Willingness to Drive the Net Skating Ability/Fundamental Play There are critical times during a game where simply being able to corral the puck, skate it up and dump it in could be the difference between winning and losing. This is the combination of skill set and hockey smarts that pay dividends when the game is on the line. While Brown will never be described as a world class skater like a Doughty or Niedermayer, he has the speed, power, and moves needed to deke when he needs to and power through when called for as well. How many times late in the game in both the NHL and the Olympics have we seen Brown take the pass from a Dman, find the open lane and either attempt to take the puck deep in the zone or simply dump the puck deep all the while maintaining control without the risk of a bad pass or risky play. To me-this skill is a lot like having a good strong Dman on the PK who can consistently clear the puck. Think Matt Greene-on the PK he is strong enough to muscle players off the puck and 9 times out of 10 when he gets a chance to clear he can bet the puck will be cleared. Brown brings that same type of philosophy in that late in the 3rd defending a lead he as a forward can be counted on to consistently get the puck into the opponents zone-invaluable asset. Clean Hard Play Draws Penalties There have been all types of debates whether Browns hard hitting style should be backed up by dropping the gloves more often and getting more chippy in his approach to the game. I understand the argument but disagree. Brown’s clean, but hard play means he is not going to be asses... [Read More] | |||||

 This is a one-time offer. For any hockey fans on the fence for rooting for the Los Angeles Kings the rest of the way, the bearer of this ducet allows that person unlimited access to the bandwagon for the rest of the season and playoff run, however long that is. This will be the last time it will be offered. After this, anyone who tries to jump on the bandwagon will be promptly denied. http://lifeinhockeywood.com/2010/02/06/hurry-get-your-bandwagon-ticket.aspx?ref=rss | |||||
