- QUOTES -​

JON COOPER:
“It's exciting. You see games just started the past few days and you watch other teams out there,'' Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said. “I stayed up kind of late (Monday) night watching the Canucks play the Sharks and you are like, 'I can't wait for that to happen here in Tampa.' So I'm really looking forward to Orlando.''

“Because we have kind of a new (coaching) staff, I just think it's unfair to put different guys in different situations right now out of the gate,'' Cooper said. “We sent a message here from the get-go that we have been on the ice with them for every single (practice) session, so I don't see any reason why we would make it to the game to jump up to the press box. I want to be there with the guys. You get a pretty good feel for the guys when you're on the bench, so that's a big part of it, too, how guys act when they are on the bench, their whole demeanor, so you get a good grasp on that.''

LET'S GO BOLTS!​

Here we go! 15 more days until we get to ***** the Broons!

Nice work on the GDT, Days! I like the new minimalistic and clean look.

Since none of the preseason games will be televised, I'm just doing something simple. I'm saving the real thing for when the season starts

After the first line, this lineup is a bit low on O, so hopefully the guys will be able to chip in a few blue collar type goals. The Blues are always good at D, so it'll be a good challenge. For the record, it doesn't really matter to me who wins these current games. The variety of players is too great at the moment. I would like to win the last preseason game though when the rosters have been reduced. Goodluck tonight.

Both teams decided to not bring any big guns, expect a sloppy game 3-2 Lightning.

Whenever I see Jacob Doty's name, I always think of this:

 

[FDfranklin]

Anyone going to the game? I think that first line is going to be pretty dominant.

I'm jealous, I couldn't get any of my friends to drive out to O town on a Wednesday night.

 

[CupsOverCash]

I think it's ok they are giving these guys a look early on. Most of these guys aren't going to make the team anyways. Get it out of the way, get your looks at them early and you have more time to coach them up.

Just put your O-face on. They'll want to go after that.

Looks like neither team bringing much to this one. That top line of ours is expected to be the 2nd line for STL in the actual season.

Also William Carrier on our 4th line was our first pick in the most recent draft.

Just wanted to give the few of you who may actually get to see this one something else to look for.

Take a laptop and invite us into a skype session so we can watch the game

Our 1st line is also projected to be our normal 2nd. Should be a good match up.

Seeing a GDT brings so much joy to my account.

The mongol horde has come down from the land of the Blues to ravish the young women of Orlando. You, young Bolts, must protect the women. Defeat these usurpers, vanquish them back to their homeland.
