Extractions: (XML) I'm watching Game 3 of the SCF and I couldn't believe what I just saw. Robyn Regehr, defenseman for the Flames, grabbed on to Lightning forward Ruslan Fedotenko and rode him hard into the boards. Fedotenko's left arm was locked down because of Regehr's hold, and he couldn't get his right arm around before hitting the boards. Regehr pushed Fedotenko down until he hit the dasher face-first. It looked like Fedotenko was out cold for a few minutes. By the time he got up, Ruslan had a nasty contusion and bruise on his cheek, with possible broken bones or worse.

Extractions: by EJ Hradek - ESPN The Magazine TAMPA, Fla. At the 2002 draft, when little-known Tampa Bay Lightning GM Jay Feaster just four months into his tenure traded the fourth overall pick (read: hot-shot defensive prospect Joni Pitkanen) to the Flyers for nondescript left wing Ruslan Fedotenko and a pair of second-round draft picks, very few NHL experts were impressed. The trade for Fedotenko left experts unimpressed, but the young winger has toughed it out. Almost two years to the day of the trade, however, Feaster's first big deal looks like it was a pretty good one. Fedotenko scored his 11th and 12th goals of the playoffs, lifting the former doormat Lightning to a thrilling 2-1 Stanley Cup-clinching win over the Calgary Flames in Game 7 on Monday night at crazed St. Pete Times Forum. In the postgame hysteria, neither Fedotenko or Feaster were too eager to say, "I told you so." "I didn't have any hard feelings about being traded," said Fedotenko, who was born in Kiev, but now lives in Sioux City, Iowa (where he played junior hockey in the USHL). "This is a business and it was a business deal."
