[2011] Lightning Strikes!

Great game on now - Bolts just scored in third period, up 1-0 now. 16 mins left.

Go Bolts!
 
Never gets old watching the wings choke when it counts! Congrats to the Lightning on their win over Detroit from a Blackhawks fan.
 
good evening

Just got home....

Bolts won, but I am not rally sure we were the better team. It was th emost even playoff series I have ever seen. Detroit should be proud, boy did they play hard (without #1, #2 defensmen)..

Bolts took a huge step... winning that first playoff series is a HUGE step for a young club!!!

next stop Montreal....
 
Congrats Puck. The playoffs are great. We are in Maui right now and there are plenty of Canadians here, so hockey is on at every place we see. Glad to see the Bolts beat Detroit.

My favorite hockey jersey!

Puck took me to a game in April 2012 and was kind enough to give me this jersey as a gift. (It even says Tibbitts on the back)

On to Montreal! Go Bolts!


 
good morning

Greg...

If you fly in for a playoff game...I will get you a matching Blue Home jersey... Dinner at Bern's too!!!

GO Bolts...

GO Bolts...

Puck -- now THAT is a tempting offer....I would love to accept, but will be tricky finding a home game that coincides with a free weekend.

Coincidentally...Memorial Day weekend is surprisingly clear....:ponder:.....if Tampa Bay advances........:doh:

Go Bolts!

Best,

Greg
 
good evening

Amanda..

since your team is leaving for Brooklyn, perhaps you could join Bolts Nation!!!

All newbies welcome :clap::clap::clap:

go bolts...
 
Oh we are on the bandwagon. My parents have a place in Tierra Verde so we are on board! We were there 3 weeks ago hence the annual Berns visit.

Watching game now and regardless of the outcome Bishop has been amazing.
 
good evening

2 OT...

KOOOOOOOOOOOOCHerov!!!!! #86

one of the triplets!!!

This is getting good...

amanda... welcome to Bolts Nation!!!!
 
Wow!!!!!!!!!!

2-1 Victory on Home Ice! Winning goal at the buzzer!

19:59 into Period 3??!!

3-0 series score with big game tomorrow....

Go Bolts!
 
good evening...

Double Wow....

Triplets do it again!!!

No Lightning tonight....

Canadiens were the winner, and it goes back to Montreal.

Bolts up 3-1, but Canadiens definitely showed up tonight and looked tough...

Game 5 in Montreal is Saturday night...

Go Bolts!
 
good morning...

Series on now!!!! Despite a 3-1 lead, Bolts-Habs has been pretty even. A few breaks the other way and the 3-1 lead could have been reversed!!!

Stay Tuned!!!

It gets good now!!!

A series gets started when each team wins a road game !!!!
 
Congrats Puck!

To think the triplet line was put together initially because of injuries. What a speedy and feisty group.

Now that this game is done...let's go Caps!
 
good evening...

Yup Triplets were born from injuries...

last year Stammer was the third triplet!!!!

Amanda... I am pulling for NYR tomorrow...

Rangers Bolts has so many delicious story lines..!!!

Tonight was by far the most bestest game they have played in 13 playoff games... I counted 2 errors the entire night!!
 
Great game tonight -- I listened on the way home -- was 1-0, then heard the goal for 2-0. Looking good in 2nd Period!

By the time I started the grill, it was 3-0. A little tense when closed to 3-1 but love the empty net goal to raise to 4-1 and give the game to the Bolts!

Alot of fun to watch and excited for the next matchup!

Go Bolts!

Best,

Greg
 
good morning (except on Left Coast)

Actually, even when Habs made it 3-1 there was a sense of calm and control with the Bolts. They were in complete control and Montreal didn't get a sniff down the stretch. It was text book "close-out" hockey. It wasn't a "prevent" defense!!!

Most complete effort of playoffs.... By Far!!!!
 
good evening....

In case you missed it...

a classic hockey tradition... nothing like it in sports

Puck,

Who do the Bolts match up better against? Capitals or Rangers?

Going to an exciting Eastern Conference Final either way.... and that was a great Game 6, I was thinking about you and how loud that arena must have been. Still can't believe the buzzer beater in Game 3...

Best,

Greg
 
good evening

I want NYR....

If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best!!! even though we give up home ice, I believe we match up better against NYR. Both teams play similar speed games... Caps closer to Red Wings, more physical grinding bunch!!!

besides NYR-Bolts has some juicy story lines about last years trade... Marty back in Tampa etc...

Puck,

What does it mean that Bolts give up home ice against Rangers (but not Capitals?) I don't know how they determine who gets Game 7?

And agree, St. Louis back in Tampa would be interesting.

Best,

Greg
 
good evening

Home ice (game 7) 2-2-1-1-1 format is determined by seeding and total points...

NYR had 113 Presidents trophy, most in league

Montreal had 110

Bolts 108

Capitals 101

red Wings 100

so, Bolts had home ice v wings game 7 in Tampa
against Montreal Bolts started on road and Habs had game 7 (if it happened)

If bolts play NYR they start in New York (saturday), game 7 in MSG...If caps win, they start in Tampa saturday with game 7 in Tampa

Hope that helps...
