Lightning Strikes (8 Viewers)

Amazing game last night - more like SOHE on steroids. The triplet line is unstoppable - Killorn is a beast - and Stamkos had his best game of the playoffs.

Just claim she was shaking a martini and you're good to go. An action gif would be better.

Even when losing - Lightning girls [emoji12]

Game 4 recap - lots of scoring chances for the Lightning but we failed to capitalize on them - well played by the Rangers and especially Lundqvist - on to game 5

The Western conference games are pretty exciting too 3 goals in 37 seconds by the Ducks

 

[tommythecat]

That was so sick last night. Hawks need to wake up.

Solid defensive effort last night - shutout by Ben Bishop + a little Stammertime

Looking forward to tonight, but I feel like I'm already halfway to a heart attack after the last 2 minutes of the Anaheim Chicago game last night.

Looking forward to tonight, but I feel like I'm already halfway to a heart attack after the last 2 minutes of the Anaheim Chicago game last night.

That game was insane. We had just got back camping and I had a lot of heat on sports yesterday (most ever for me) and the ANA game was the final bink. I'm now toasting when the ducks come out bing-bing in the first period. When Chi tied it up 37 secs left in reg, my jaw DROPPED. I'm just glad the kill was early in OT. I need to stop betting on late games, my sleep is dying.

I've seen every playoff game so far and it looks like NYR is just out of gas. I don't get it, they are playing very passive and only seem to respond more or less when pressed at the moment. The plus is that TB/ANA is going to be a fantastic cup final. I bet the over under will hit 6 for the first time in this playoff, but still won't help SnoopTood with his totals.

Pregame warm ups - Game 6

 

[k9dr]

Game on

I know I am biased, but the penalty calls seem more than a little lopsided in favor of the Rangers. Slash Kucherov and knock his glove off - no call. Then we get called for ticky tack hooking. At least our PK is coming up huge again.

With all due respect, Kucherov's glove started it. It was being disrespectful and needed to be reminded that, in the end, it merely serves one solitary purpose - to be flung to the ice dramatically in the event of fisticuffs.

Game 6 recap - Rangers score a touchdown I really felt we outplayed the Rangers the first two periods, but they outscored us - on to game 7

 

[ChaosRock]

I gotta be honest Mark, as much as I want to get even on our action, I'll be cheering for the Bolts all the way to the cup... I really don't want this thread to end (hoping for more and more TB girls!) and it would be great having you celebrating the cup going to Tampa...

Good luck Friday man!!!

 

[k9dr]

I hope the Bolts Stanley Cup run continues too thanks for the support. Typically, the Lightning bounce back well from a loss, and Bishop is very solid after a poor performance. That said, it is game 7 and anything can happen.

Game 6 stats

 

[jbutler]

as much as i hate to say it, subbing miller in for st. louis was a good move. he came through for sure. as insane as the final score was, i think anyone who was watching thought it was anyone's game when the third period started.

 

[manamongkids]

If you have faith in Tampa Bay to win game 7 and put up a good fight in the Finals. They are currently +500 to win the Cup. The next biggest dog is Chicago at +250

 

[k9dr]

I already have $$ on the Lightning to win the series at 12-1.

Game day Game 7 : Let's GO Lightning !!

 

[guinness]

NYR has been a bit of a split personality in this series, but I put $ on NY expecting them to be awake tonight. Hope its a good game, expect OT.

 

[k9dr]

I fully anticipate the Lightning to not only win, but dominate tonight. Expect a low scoring game 2-0 or maybe 2-1. The game winner will be a dirty goal scored by a 3rd or 4th line grinder - maybe Paquette or JT Brown or Brian Boyle. :

 

[jbutler]

...expect OT.

whatever happens, please no OT. i don't think i can take it.
