3 Games Straight and I'm the first guy here! Let's Go BOLTS!

 

[LightningStrikes]

Go !!!!!

 

[Volodya Krutov]

Floridian propaganda, how is that possible !



I expect Amalie to absolutely rock tonight.

 

[garmonbozia]

I'm putting on my Lightningfan24 pajamas and calling Cally gets on the board tonight and the Lightning survive some serious playoff drama to eke out a win!



Pacifiers please! Says it SO much better than the boobirds can.

Hedman skating through Tanner Glass, or anybody else just kicking his ass would be some tasty icing on the cake of our win too.

 

[Volodya Krutov]

I feel Cally scores too.

 

[Kristia]

Go Bolts!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Outl4w]

Stamkos, Johnson,Kucherov, and Callahan light the lamp tonight 4-2 BOLTS!

 

[Kramerica Industries]

Take the series lead tonight. Big chance to take a step forward back on home ice.

TB peaked at 11.2 from 10:15-30

Huge numbers. I have to say that I am completely impressed and somewhat suprised how obsessed Tampa Bay is with this team right now.

 

[Goober]

Let's go boys. Time to build some momentum.

What do these numbers signify? 11.2 what?

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

Please Win

I'm guessing Households. Which basically is a percentage of households watching the program.

For example, the Dancing with the Stars Finale did a 8.4 in households last night. This is on a major network with strong mass and female appeal. Billboard Awards did a 6. Bucs do somewhere between 15-20.

I highly doubt that this is a specific demo like Adults 25-54 for example. If it was, those would be NFL type numbers locally.

Ah ok. Not bad at all.

Pretty sure when they list it as "8.7 Rating" it refers to total households in the market. If they had listed it as a Share as opposed to a rating, then it's number of households actually watching television.

It's a good number for hockey, and it's not surprising with the amount of Bolts support i've been seeing. Lots of shirts, hats and car flags from individuals and a good amount of businesses (both chain and local) with "Go Bolts!" on their signs/windows.

Also listening to sports radio, the Lightning are a huge topic right now. And it's decent discussion too, not just "uh, I like hockey... Stamkos is good". There's some amount of Bucs/Winston talk, and of course the Rays are doing better than expected. But i'd estimate at least 50% of everything i've heard in the last 3-4 weeks is lightning.

Pretty much.

It is a very good number for anything. Especially considering it is on somewhat of a fringe station with absolutely NO national promotion.

 

[LightningStrikes]

But we're losing dollarz!!!11

 

[Iceman]

Why fill in Cally and Paquette as complinentary players? I guess they can fit on any line but I rather see them with Boyle on third line and put out morrow and brown when we need to give the team som spark and bring physicality.

But what do I know? I guess we have to trust Cooperman.

 

[Hoek]

Sure would be nice to go on a streak here.

2 home wins... here we go!

Betting that the Rangers follow their normal pattern W gm 1, L gm 2, W gm3...

No way they play that awful on the road. Bolts will have to clean up their 1st period as well.

No way Lundqvist has another awful game. 3-1 Rangers.

I won't make any prediction, but if you are any type of a Bolts fan, and say something like that? wow. I am sure they would love you on the Rangers forum.

To elaborate, the Rangers lost game 1, against the Caps, won game 2 and then lost, the next 2 to put them on the brink of elimination. I fail to see your point. Please elaborate.
