Good Question. They just eliminated Boston from the playoffs. Who they gonna play next, and when, danb6177? To be determined still? Winner of the caps and pens. Hopefully it go’s 7 and everyone gets hurt. Haha jk about the hurt What of those two teams do you feel TB will have better odds against?

I'm A TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING FAN! I'm originally a Flyers fan for life, but those bums are out of it now, so I'm pulling for TB with Dan and you now.

I love the way Ovi plays the game, an Elite goal scorer (best of this generation, possibly all time) and still manages to be top 10 in hits per year. The Jets are my playoff team, but I also want Ovi to win a cup. Really I just like watching good hockey and not getting upset that my team lost lol

Barring a miracle the lightning season will be over very soon. They just dont want it enough and therefore really dont deserve it. I said this back at all star break. They have heart issues. They started off so good and then began to coast. And they coasted until the end of the season. Now when called upon to play like that elite team again they cant pull it up. A lot of this I blame on cooper. He will never be the motivator that torts was.

I think they are running into a motivated Capitals team that has finally gotten past the Penguins and have over a decade of disappointment fueling their desire to win. Ovechkin is playing at an MVP caliber and Holtby isnt letting the pressure get to him and hes playing like the Vezna caliber goaltender he is.
The Stanley cup is the hardest championship to win in sports. Its a long physically demanding season and the playoffs are even a step above that. Any team making to the East or the West final is capable of winning the cup but overall team health, toughness and motivation all come into play.

Barring a miracle the lightning season will be over very soon. Yeah, was thinking the same. Didn't get to watch last game, but saw highlights. Down 2-0 against such a talented and hot team like the Caps means it's basically over. Would be an incredible story if they could turn it around, but highly unlikely.

So its 4-2 and I still think we will lose this game. Bolts still look flat still getting outhustled and out banged at every play. Lighting did capitalize on a few PPs and some mistakes from the caps. But this is still not looking good. 2 mins left we will see

Hoping they look like the lightning team from the beginning of the year next game. I mean without the PPs in that game we may have lost. Still no gritty heart stuff like I know they can do.

For the life of me I cannot say how this series is tied up. That second period may well be the most dominated I’ve ever seen a playoff team In my life. We were beat badly on every single stat that matters except the score. Back to Tampa now. Would be funny if we actually woke up

Would be funny if we actually woke up Andrei Vasilevskiy is the reason, he has single handedly pulled the Lightning back to even in this series.
