  • Vegas Beats Winnipeg with Stick Jets Livid Goal Wasn't Overturned After Hellebuyck Slashed in Head
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/vegas-downs-jets-3-2-to-remain-on-top-of-western- conference-472272033.html Vegas beats Winnipeg with stick Jets livid goal wasn't overturned after Hellebuyck slashed in head By: Mike McIntyre A heavyweight battle of the Western Conference’s top-two teams delivered in spades Thursday night. And while the Vegas Golden Knights skated away with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Winnipeg Jets, it was a controversial call earlier in the game — and Winnipeg’s reaction to it — that will surely reverberate all the way to the NHL’s head office. We take you back to late in second period, with the teams locked in a 1-1 tie and Vegas on the power play. Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck couldn’t quite squeeze a shot from the blue-line, and the puck sat loose behind him just inches from the goal-line. Vegas forward James Neal, apparently trying to cash in, took a wild swing with his stick that caught Hellebuyck flush in the head. Neal’s twig broke in half, the blade spinning towards the corner boards as the proverbial smoking gun. Only there was no penalty call on the play and no whistle. Erik Haula then pounced on the loose puck, knocking it home for the go-ahead tally. Winnipeg protested, and the two referees huddled with the linesman for a few seconds before ruling it a goal. Jets head coach Paul Maurice challenged for goaltender interference. Following a lengthy review, referee Ghislain Hebert ruled the original call stood — even though it was clear as day Neal slashed Hellebuyck in the face with great force.

  • A Matter of Inches My Last Fight
    INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS GROUP A Matter of Inches How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond Clint Malarchuk, Dan Robson Summary No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress­ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Clint Malarchuk did that job while suffering high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder and had his career nearly literally cut short by a skate across his neck, to date the most gruesome injury hockey has ever seen. This autobiography takes readers deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. When his carotid artery was slashed during a collision in the crease, Malarchuk nearly died on the ice. Forever changed, he struggled deeply with depression and a dependence on alcohol, which nearly cost him his life and left a bullet in his head. Now working as the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, Malarchuk reflects on his past as he looks forward to the future, every day grateful to have cheated death­twice. 9781629370491 Pub Date: 11/1/14 Author Bio Ship Date: 11/1/14 Clint Malarchuk was a goaltender with the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. $25.95 Hardcover Originally from Grande Prairie, Alberta, he now divides his time between Calgary, where he is the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, and his ranch in Nevada.

    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.

This is an open access article licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Background: Physical parameters represent an important part of the structure of sports performance and significantly contribute to the overall performance of an ice hockey player. Basic physical parameters are also an essential part of a comprehensive player assessment both during the initial NHL draft and further stages of a professional career. For an objective assessment it is desirable to know the current condition of development of monitored somatic parameters with regard to the sports discipline, performance level and gaming position. Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze and present the level of development of basic physical characteristics [Body Height (BH) and Body Weight (BW)] in current ice hockey players in the Canadian-American NHL, also with respect to various gaming positions. Another aim is to compare the results with relevant data of elite ice hockey players around the world. Methods: The data of 751 ice hockey players (age range: 18–43 years; 100% male) from NHL (2014/2015 season) are analyzed (goalkeepers, n = 67; defenders, n = 237; forwards, n = 447).

  • 'Hawks Have Jets' Number Winnipeg Comes up Short Against Chicago for Second Time in Two Outings
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/hawks-have-jets-number- 469090963.html 'Hawks have Jets' number Winnipeg comes up short against Chicago for second time in two outings By: Jason Bell CHICAGO — The Winnipeg Jets left Chicago feeling a little empty on Friday night. A solid road effort was there, they generated some scoring chances and limited the NHL’s most active marksmen to a reasonable amount of shots on goal. But the Blackhawks earned two key points against their Central Division rivals, riding the superior goaltending of journeyman Jeff Glass and his 31-save effort to a 2-1 triumph over the Jets at United Center. Glass slid across to make a ridiculous pad save off Patrik Laine with a minute left in regulation time to preserve the victory. If that wasn’t enough, captain Blake Wheeler hit a post with less than 20 ticks to go and the Jets’ net empty. "It was a s—- loss. We battled well in the third, we never gave up. We had some huge scoring chances, including myself, but just couldn’t capitalize," said Laine, who took over the team goal- scoring lead with his 20th at 16:19 to pull the visitors to within one. "Their speed, they have so much skill up front and they have so much veteran guys in their lineup, so it’s hard to play against. But we have to find some ways to beat them because we’re gonna get these kinds of games against Chicago again this season." The Blackhawks (22-16-6) have the Jets’ number so far this season.

  • Jets Squad Prepared for Takeoff Copp Avoids Injury Scare to Play in Opener
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/copp-back-on-ice-jets-face-roster- deadline-this-afternoon-449282993.html Jets squad prepared for takeoff Copp avoids injury scare to play in opener By: Jason Bell Andrew Copp’s lucky break — or lack of one, in this case — had a painful side effect for Kyle Connor. Copp will play tonight in the Winnipeg Jets’ 2017-18 NHL season-opener against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Bell MTS Place. Game time is 6 p.m. (Sportsnet, TSN 1290) The 23-year-old foward who hails from Ann Arbor, Mich., was sidelined for a couple of days with an ailing knee after blocking a cannon off the stick of veteran Flames defenceman Mark Giordano on Saturday night in Calgary. The pain was so intense, Copp couldn’t bear weight on the leg and did his best crab impersonation to crawl off the ice at the Saddledome. But he declared himself fit for battle Tuesday morning following a 70-minute practice at the downtown rink. He took several line rushes with centre Adam Lowry and right-winger Joel Armia and also worked with the penalty-killing unit. The club’s medical staff and head coach Paul Maurice clearly agreed, giving him the green light to join the battle against Auston Matthews and the Leafs. By mid-afternoon, the Jets announced Connor had been dispatched to the Manitoba Moose of the American Hockey League. "I took a couple of days off just to rest it and the swelling’s gone down a lot, and just feel comfortable, obviously, out there in practice and should be ready to go for the game," Copp said.

The clock is stopped anytime the officials stop play. In the second period of play the teams switch ends and play the game heading in the opposite direction One team is on each bench with the forwards at the front door and the defense at the back door. Ice Hockey Rules PLAYERS & POSITIONS Each team has 6 players on the rink at a time: 5 skaters and 1 goaltender. The skaters are divided into 3 forwards and 2 defensemen. Forward Forward Forward Left Wing Center Right Wing Defensemen Defensemen Left Defense Right Defense Goaltender All players, regardless of their position, can go anywhere on the ice. The only exception is the goaltender who isn’t allowed to cross the center red line. GOALTENDER The goaltender’s main responsibility is to protect the goal and keep the puck out of the net. DEFENSEMEN Their responsibility is to stop the play at their own blue line. Defensively, they try to intercept passes, block shots, keep players from receiving the puck and clear the puck from their end of the rink. Offensively, they pass the puck to their forwards and follow the play into the attacking zone. They also try to create offense by getting pucks to the net in the offensive zone, as well as trying to keep pucks from crossing back over the offensive blue line keeping their team onside.
