[Necropolis]

Nice save by Jay-Bo.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

What luck

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

 

[CarpeNoctem]

Bad-assed Big Ben Bishop battles beautifully.

 

[Necropolis]

Yeees! Great win guys.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Barberio on the ice to close the game out. Nice little present for him.

 

[The Macho King]

Man... this was a REALLY good team we played tonight, and we outplayed them. That's an awesome feeling.

 

[Doctor Drej]

big ben with win #9 tonight. second in the league in wins.

 

[Bolts265]

Great win tonight.
Can't understand some of the Connelly hate.

 

[Sear91]

Great win tonight, boys!

 

[DFC]

Man... this was a REALLY good team we played tonight, and we outplayed them. That's an awesome feeling.

Yeah, that's my take too. Best effort of the season, considering the competition. That one should open up some eyes around the league. Look for the Lightning to be inside a lot of top tens in power rankings this week. And what's that? 4-0 vs. the mighty west?

Oh, and Toronto's getting destroyed.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

We always seem to play well against really good teams. Hopefully that stays true because we've got some tough ones coming up. Next 3 are on the road in Detriot and a back-to-back in Boston and Montreal. The oilers game though, forget it lol.

 

[Ricebox]

Is it too much to ask for, for them to play that hard every game of the season?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Great win tonight.
Can't understand some of the Connelly hate.

If it weren't for a tremendous save by Halak, he'd have 2 goals. He looked fine to me.

 

[Kusic]

What a effort.. this game was our the best I've seen this season. Killorn is totally amazing with Marty and Stammer. Stammer looks like a hockey god.

and yes!.. TWO POINTS!

 

[jg39]

And what's that? 4-0 vs. the mighty west?

Oh, and Toronto's getting destroyed.

5-0 against the West...Chicago x2, LA, Minnesota, and now the Blues.

Also...good for Connolly getting the GWG tonight. In one game, he's already matched his AHL season total in points

 

[Bolts265]

Happy for Brett he deserved the GWG'

 

[frostyflo]

congrats guys, a good team you cheer for!
good, entertaining game!

 

[zeykshade]

If it weren't for a tremendous save by Halak, he'd have 2 goals. He looked fine to me.

He did look good. He looked good in the defensive third of the ice too. That's fantastic to see.

 

[Coopers Gum]

Figures. I missed the best game of the year apparently. Any good takeaways?

 

[Lord Stan 2020]

best game of year to me

kucherov rankin with goals crunch lose 4-2

Halifax still up 3-2 with minutes left drouin has 3 points.

 

[DFC]

Barberio's getting steadily better now too. I think he's played himself into a real option now, rather than just a guy who gets in for the experience.

 

[2MinutesforGiraffing]

i think it's been our best complete game of the year. best effort.

Definitely. I think we showed what we're capable of when we fully bring it. And that is scary in a good way.

EDIT: I messed up some words because beer

 

[DFC]

Figures. I missed the best game of the year apparently. Any good takeaways?

There was a lot to feel good about. The Lightning controlled the play the majority of the game, despite I think being officially outshot. The Blues were blocking everything. Bishop was great, Killorn had perhaps the best game of his career, and Stamkos honestly looks like he might put himself in the conversation with Crosby if he keeps this up all year. He's been unbelievable.

 

[kisin]

Even though he didn't hit the scoresheet, Hedman played arguably his best game this season (both defensively and offensively). And finally logged some big minutes out there.
