  • Injuries Continue to Plague Jets Seven Wounded Players Missed Saturday's Game
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/injuries-continue-to-keep-jets-in-sick- bay-476497963.html?k=QAPMqC Injuries continue to plague Jets Seven wounded players missed Saturday's game By: Mike McIntyre WASHINGTON — Is there a doctor in the house? It’s been a common refrain for the Winnipeg Jets lately, as they just can’t seem to get close to a full, healthy lineup. Seven players were out due to injury in Saturday’s 2-1 loss in Philadelphia. Here’s what we know about all of them, with further updates expected today as the Jets return to action with a morning skate and then their game in Washington against the Capitals. Mark Scheifele has missed two games with a suspected shoulder injury, and there will be no rushing him back into action. He’s considered day-to-day at this point, and coach Paul Maurice had said last week he was a possibility to play either tonight, or tomorrow in Nashville. But don’t bet on it. Defenceman Toby Enstrom is battling a lower-body issue which kept him out for four games, saw him return in New Jersey last Thursday and then be back out on Saturday. Maurice said it’s a nagging thing that can change day-to-day, so his status is very much a question mark. Defenceman Dmitry Kulikov missed Saturday’s game after getting hurt Thursday in New Jersey. Maurice hasn’t said how long he could be out, only that it’s upper-body. Goalie Steve Mason has been sent back to Winnipeg for further testing on a lower-body injury he suffered late in the game against the New York Rangers last Tuesday, which was his first game back from his second concussion of the season.

  • Jets Enter Free Agency with Distinct Needs
    Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/2017/06/29/jets-enter-free-agency-with-distinct-needs Jets enter free agency with distinct needs BY KEN WIEBE, WINNIPEG SUN Kevin Cheveldayoff is well aware the clock is ticking and the free agency bell is about to ring. The courting period has provided the Winnipeg Jets with the opportunity to express interest in several players they'd like to pursue come Saturday when the window to sign unrestricted free agents officially opens. Several players — including goalies Steve Mason and Brian Elliott and defenceman Karl Alzner, among others — have at least demonstrated some level of interest in joining the Jets. It's important to remember: for agents, the courting period is the time to drum up additional interest for the client. And a lot can happen between now and Saturday. Another team can swoop in with a bigger offer or provide an additional year or higher dollar amount to seal the deal. But the Jets go into this weekend with two distinct needs at the top of the wish list: an experienced starting goalie to share the net with Connor Hellebuyck and a defenceman who can play the left side, preferably a left-handed shooter. Historically, the Jets haven't been a team to swing for the fences or overpay to land a marquee name on July 1. Veteran centre Olli Jokinen was a place-holder and his signing in 2012 allowed Mark Scheifele to get some additional seasoning at the junior level before he was ready to be a full-time NHLer.

  • Implication of Puck Possession on Scoring Chances in Ice Hockey
    Implication of Puck Possession on Scoring Chances in Ice Hockey Laura Rollins Bachelor's Thesis Degree Programme in Sports and Leisure Management 2010 Abstract 2010 Degree Programme Authors Group Laura Rollins DP VI Title Number of Implications of Puck Possession on Scoring Chances in Ice Hockey pages and appendices 38 + 1 Supervisors Antti Pennanen Kari Savolainen Much of the conventional wisdom in ice hockey suggests that moving the puck forward, towards the opponent's goal, is the best strategy for producing scoring chances. Past research has lent credence to this wisdom. Studies have consistently shown that scoring chances in hockey are produced from fast attacks and short possessions of less than 10 seconds. Thus, many coaches the world over preach a brand of hockey that sacrifices puck control for constant forward motion. As a consequence, hockey is often reduced to a game of Pong – teams exchange the puck back and forth until someone commits a fatal error and a goal is scored. Previous studies have given only a partial picture of the nature of scoring chances. They have implied that the production of a chance is dependent only on the possession immediately prior to that chance. This study will expand on the earlier research by examining the ten possessions prior to a scoring chance, and how they affect the production of that chance.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips March 9, 2021 Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin experiencing growing pains in new role on defense By Lance Lysowski The Buffalo News March 9, 2021 PHILADELPHIA – Rasmus Dahlin did not hang his head. He didn’t even glance at a group of New York Islanders swarming forward Matt Martin to celebrate their fifth goal Thursday night. Dahlin, now a 20-year-old defenseman and 164 games into a National Hockey League career that began with his selection first overall at the 2018 draft, skated toward the Buffalo Sabres’ bench and used his right hand to lift his stick in the air to signal for a line change. Martin, a fourth-line grinder known more for his right hook than scoring touch, had just skated by Dahlin and across the front of the Sabres’ net before jamming the puck past goalie Jonas Johansson to seal the Islanders' 5- 2 win. In years past, Dahlin’s frustration might have boiled over. One of the NHL’s bright young defensemen, Dahlin has grown accustomed to the sometimes overwhelming emotion that comes with failure. He’s experienced more than his fair share during his third season in the NHL. Entering Monday, Dahlin owned a league-worst minus-21 rating – on pace for minus-75 if this were an 82-game season – and advanced metrics illustrate how he’s struggling at times to adjust to a bigger role defensively. “It comes (down to forgetting) things, it comes (down) to working harder,” Dahlin said matter of factly. “You are allowed to get (upset) at yourself.

    IN THE MATTER OF SALARY ARBITRATION BETWEEN: CODY FRANSON - AND – THE TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS BRIEF OF THE TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS TEAM #29 Introduction and Overview of Mr. Franson’s Career Pursuant to section 12.9 of the NHL Collective Bargaining Agreement,1 through an analysis of Cody Franson’s contributions and his role within the Toronto Maple Leafs in relation to comparable players in the National Hockey League, this brief will outline that Mr. Franson is entitled to an award below the midpoint figure of $3.3 million. We submit that the appropriate award for Mr. Franson is $3.0 million. The 2013-2014 season was Mr. Franson's platform year. In this year, he was given increased ice time over his previous year, but this resulted in decreased production and he posted the worst plus minus rating amongst the team’s defencemen. In addition, the Toronto Maple Leafs missed the playoffs. To the extent that Mr. Franson continued to produce points in his platform year, he has grown increasingly reliant on his power play production. The 2012-2013 season was Mr. Franson's best in his NHL career. He recorded 29 points with 4 goals and 25 assists.2 During this season Cody Franson was fifth among Maple Leafs defensemen in time on ice.
