The Puck Whisperer (via cache.daylife.com ) Jonas talks to the puck and settles it down. He says "it's OK, you don't need to go in the net. You don't even want to go in the net." The puck quietly comes to rest at Gustavsson's feet, and the gentle giant some call "Monster" reaches down and gently scoops the puck out of harms way. "There, there little buddy. Doesn't that feel...
Last night, I caught a bit of the LA-Dallas game . It was not easy to watch: Los Angeles Kings dominate second period in 4-1 win over Dallas Stars "Dallas falls to 3-2-3 on the season, good for nine of a possible 16 points." Yes, I know that the Stars played without Brad Richards , Mike Modano , Steve Ott and Jere Lehtinen ! Still, are you telling me that the bench can't put up a fight? Dear...
from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, Mike Modano was flying through a morning skate practice on Friday and looked good, whipping shots on net, flipping backhanded passes to teammates and skating with the natural stride that looks all too smooth to come from 39-year-old legs. And then it happened. “I tried a one-timer from (Mike) Ribeiro, and it just fell apart,” Modano said of a...
from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, ...with the Stars boasting a lineup that typically features eight players who are 25 or younger, Dallas has entered a new era. And with the players buying into coach Marc Crawford’s system of aggressive skating, the Stars don’t look old and slow. What’s more, they seem to have forged an identity pretty quickly. “It’s a fun way...
Well, it didn't take long for the Leafs to spend Pavel Kubina's money. They've signed former Hab Mike Komisarek. Right now, the Leafs have a better defense and are a much tougher team than they were seven hours ago. The goaltending is still weak and the offensive depth is thinner than Mike Ribeiro's ankles, but you can't ask Burke to fix everything in one day. This signing also gives the Leafs somebody...
The Ottawa Senators and GM Bryan Murray will be working frantically the next couple of days to find a potential deal for Dany Heatley . The Senators were unsuccessful at the draft but are still holding out hope that a team will step up before they are due to pay Dany Heatley his $4 million bonus on Wednesday. Bryan Murray has set the bar extremely high and wasn't able to find a taker over the weekend....
I haven’t posted on MassLive for since August 2008. After accusations of stalking people and rumors of my wife leaving me, it seemed like the prudent thing to do. I miss conversing with a lot of the people on the Granby Forum, SBGR, Rams15, ClancyPants, GreenMtMn, and Mike Ribeiro, but you can only wear so much mud before people think it’s [...]
It’s the goal that you’ve all been waiting for … Mike Ribeiro of the Stars goes between his legs at the last moment to beat Peter Budaj of the Avalanche in a shootout. Must see TV: We’ve had some really good goals this year — the Richard Zednik airborne goal was one of them — [...]
by Bruce Ciskie Filed under: Avalanche , Stars , Western , NHL Videos It seems that shootouts have gotten a lot of attention lately. There was this goal in a shootout overseas , and more recently, this one in an IHL game . Thursday night, Dallas Star Mike Ribeiro decided to toss in some artistry of his own. This bizarre goal won Dallas a shootout in what was ultimately a meaningless game, as both teams...
Mike Ribeiro’s spectacular backward spin, between-the-legs, move was working in recent practices, but nobody thought he would ever attempt it in a game…until last night versus the Colorado Avalanche! The ridiculously insane maneuver worked! Ribeiro resorted to his bag of tricks in the final shootout attempt, skating in backward and slipping the puck between his legs for a [...] Post from:...
Mike Ribeiro resorted to some trickery in the final shootout attempt, skating in backward and then flipping a shot into the net off Peter Budaj to lift the Dallas Stars to a 3-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday night.
DALLAS, April 5 (UPI) -- Trevor Daley's goal 16 seconds into overtime Saturday boosted the Dallas Stars to a 5-4 victory against the St. Louis Blues. Daley's seventh goal this season was a slapshot past Chris Mason after an assist by Mike Modano. Dallas' Loui Eriksson scored twice and Mike Ribeiro once. Tom Wandell had two assists, while Matt Climie, in his NHL debut, stopped 22-of-26 shots for the...
If you’re a follower of NHL Digest, then you know how much we appreciate the between-the-legs goals and Mike Ribeiro provided us with a beauty against Florida! This between-the-legs goal from Ribeiro is very similar to the one scored last season by Rick Nash. Both were in very close to the net and instinctively reacted to [...] Post from: NHL Digest- Hockey News and Equipment Reviews
