THAT was the Tampa Bay Lightning we’ve been waiting for these past couple weeks. solid, solid game
Oh, I guess that one goal they took away didn’t matter now did it?
K that was amazing to say the least
You could see it in the Vegas game, you could see it in the Winnipeg game, and you most certainly see it in this game, we’re a contending team. This was one of the most complete games of hockey we’ve played in weeks, against one of the best teams in the league, on the road, and without our captain.
Let’s sweep this series.
They played great, AND the score finally reflected that. Good game
Big win for Vasy. Ridiculous how much of a rough stretch he had
Brandon Hagel and Prime Wayne Gretzky are indistinguishable
Haven’t seen this team play that strong defensively this season yet. Hopefully we can keep it up
Like I said last PGT effort has been getting back up there. Process over results right now but if you play the right way with this group results follow. Can really get back to standard with the tougher schedule coming up
If we can just make it past 12 shots without being down a field goal, we have a chance
Best game in a long time! Also….still miss Palat man 🙁
Reverse uno with the shorty streak. Perry getting some good looks. Great puck movement. Great defense. Great goaltending. What did I just watch?
GG
That was the best game they’ve played all year. Let’s build on it.
Holy fuck was it nice to finally see a commanding win feels like it’s been ages.
Here what i think. Many people in GDT says that our defence are very good tonight. No, at all. Our defence was ok, but nothing more. Overall almost all bolts are wake up today and have a lot of energy (and Bagel have more;), NJ all 2&3 periods just defends only, they don’t have much power to attack. So, when all team is played well, our defence play well to. We have very good defence, even without McD. But when offence are out of gas, defence cannot work all 60min without mistakes, and often D also out of gas, sometimes Vasy helps, but off not in all games.
LFGBolts.
Great performance against a very good team. Didn’t agree with the GI overturn though, personally.
Excellent game. I’ve really enjoyed the way we’ve played the last 2 games. Hagel was all over the place tonight. Let’s keep it up!
Hagel is my dad. That is all.
I’ve been hesitant to say anything because of superstitious reasons but during the whole slump I really noticed that Hagel just seemed to be fighting the puck and nothing was working for him. Tonight was an everything bagel and it was so awesome to see! He’s just got a motor that doesn’t quit at all! This is the team we know and love!
Anyone else noticed Kuch missed his last few shifts?
The Lightning have played
**3 games**
without allowing a short-handed goal
Best road game of the year
That felt really really good. They played good and defense showed . Glad the score reflected it
Shot in the dark – distant thunder in the DC area…was this game blacked out for anyone else around here? News to me that New Jersey is in-market for DC according to ESPN.
The post was our savior as well
