so obviously no makar but no perbix for tb so p much an even trade
in all seriousness, wasn’t the prettiest win, but still good to beat a reasonably good roster after being down 2
Great to see them claw their way back with 5v5 depth scoring. Might finally be finding a groove. Oh, and Vasy saving their asses again and again.
Gotta get my broom, some Avalanche snow is still out on my porch lol
Big Cat is god
Did you all know that if you score more goals than the other team you are pretty much guaranteed to Win?
This game was a rollercoaster, but damn does this W taste sweet! Great goals from Vladdy and Cirelli (who’s finally really feeling himself) and another standout performance from the best big cat in the league.
Also, we’re knocking on that home ice advantage against the leafs!!! Let’s fucking go!!!
My friend who is a Lightning fan had his pet cat Oliver pass away today. The Big Cat won it for you Oliver
Every game in Denver is amazing and I keep missing them.
Although, I go next year and we’ll probably lose 5-0.
Big cat rounding into form. but Seriously anyone think Kuch is off rn like yeah he has like a 10 game point streak but they mostly one point nights and well we saw what he did today in OT
At least it was worth it to stay up until Midnight. I hate games out West. Saturday nights game doesn’t start until 10:30. That pisses me off.
What a game! Good to see the guys slug it out and clinch the win. Vasy was an absolute beast. I imagine this was a reality check for the AVs. Onward!
I would like to continue with Hagel on the first line and Stamkos with Cirelli and Paul, please.
70% of the earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Andrei Vasilevskiy
ZIPPITY ZAPPITY ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️💙
Thank you Big Cat!!!

Best game I’ve ever been to. Everyone was so into it both sides.
Hope y’all heard the denver distant thunder tonight.
Just got to the hotel in PHX to the happy news. There were at least a half dozen of us on tonight’s flight out of Tampa and ran into 2 more at the rental car place.
My first Bolts game and the stadium was straight up like 35%-40% bolts fans.
It was also my first time being so close to glass what a fucking game
Was at the game and there was a TON of lightning fans. Go Bolts
Super nice of the boys to give me a win for my birthday 🥳
I was at the game tonight and it was amazing. So many Bolts jerseys in the stands and we even had some “let’s go lightning” chants going in the 100 level of enemy territory! Great game on the ice and great showing from the Distant Thunder here in Denver!
Nice win and fun result, but let’s not get cocky. The Avs have a lot of guys out with injuries and they played well. They took advantage of our mistakes for really good scoring chances. That was, obviously, a very close game. Vasy was definitely the MVP for us. It was good to see Vlad get another one and we’re getting proof that Cirelli is healed and dangerous again.
We just can’t be so casual with passing that results in turnovers. The calm, cool and collected playing style of Vasy is awesome, but he got casual a few times resulting in turnovers and Av chances. Also, wondering what’s going on with Hedman. Just seems to lack the magic of last season. He’s so f’in good that any drop off in his game is still good D, but I wonder if there’s something going on with him.
Well, it’s the attrition and grind portion of the season. That’s our calling card for Find a Way. Go Bolts! ⚡️
