- QUOTES -​

JON COOPER:
"Training camp, for me, is not about putting together most of the guys who are going to be on your team and leaving everybody else out. You have to see what other guys can do with NHL players. ...So, I like to split guys up."

TYLER JOHNSON:
"We were a little rusty, our decision making. Your head is in it, you don’t really lose that part. It was just getting your body up to speed with what you are normally doing. It took a little bit of time, but I thought we got better as the game went on. And that’s going to happen during the preseason."

NIKITA KUCHEROV:
"Any good player can be good one year; good players play every year at a high level even better than the year before. The main goal is to be better than last year. If you are going to be better than last year, then I’m sure that means we are going to be even better than last year. Every year you have to prove yourself and try to get better."

LET'S GO BOLTS!​

Are the radio broadcasts available for us Brie? Haven't been able to catch the first preseason games.

The Tampa broadcast on iheart radio is only avaible in the US but for the other two games we could listen to the Nashville broadcast on NHL.com but I don't know if Florida has a broadcast or if you can hear it there as well, one have to hope that somehow one broadcast will be avaible but it's hard to know, there are a lot of us outside of the US who have the same problem which sucks.

 

[FDfranklin]

I'm going tonight.

I'm wondering if tonight is going to be a sell out. There's barely any tickets left on stubhub (under 150) and oddly enough lower bowl tickets were pretty damn expensive for a pre-season game against the panthers.

Has anyone tried the poutine at the arena yet? Thinking of trying some tonight.

 

[Leonardo87]

I see Florida being a bubble playoff team aka not bad at all. Should be interesting how they are progressing in preseason and how they will start the regular season .

 

[Brie]

Playing tonight:



EDIT:


Bishop, Callahan, Boyle, Strålman and Garrison will make their pre-season debut. I can't even guess how the lineup will look though.

 

[dechire]

Man I really want to see that lineup in action. Or any Bolts hockey at all. The Stars will almost definitely stream Saturday's game but of course I'm busy that night. Guess I'll be waiting until the 29th

 

[Brie]

Really strange lineup but the first line could be interesting, the other once though are odd though the Erne - Boyle - Condra could be fun.

 

[2MinutesforGiraffing]

<--- is excited

 

[Yzlamic Preacher*]

It'll be good to run Kuch, Drouin, and Stamkos against Florida. Looks like Florida is also running a starter heavy team. Just wish there will be updates. Or a live feed.

 

[MrClutch86]

I'll be at the game
Excited to see this lineup

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

The Preseason Governors Cup is as good as ours.

 

[chasespace]

Mostly first teamers on both sides. I wish they would stream these games. Scoreboard video feed with the radio feed for sound would be perfect and(in theory) cheap for this.

 

[ArmaHedman]

I forgot they got Shawn Thorton. Funny (not funny) that I still dislike any of the Bruins or Ex Bruins!

Interesting line up, hope Bish and Guds split the game and make it easier on both of them but they still both get some time.

I hope whoever plays with Dru takes a few shots tonight. The kid is trying to make a good impression.

That top line is something I've been wanting to see. If that does not ignite Stamkos, nothing else will.

 

[Bolt32]

No ****ing kidding. Talent wise I don't there is a team that can match up with those wingers that Stamkos will have. Offensive talent is ridiculous with that line.

Stammer looks to me like he is pacing himself. I would not say he was quite VL4 level not skating but he sure was for from a 100% output every shift. I am ok with it, save it for when it counts.

Preseason that's fine - if he does that **** in the regular season, he can **** off. We don't need another Lecavalier latter years.

I honestly don't like that he is doing that in Preseason. Game time is game time. He isn't in the beer league. I don't think once players get wired for it that they can lay off. If he isn't laying off.....that worries me.

Eh - you don't want to get hurt in preseason. I would be he's pushing it in practice, and he seems to be jelling with Drouin. The games I'm more worried about getting out of healthy than anything else.

And let's face it, we've never been able to question Stamkos' effort. Production, sure. Brains - at times. But he doesn't float.

 

[Brie]

*sigh*



Hopefully he doesn't split them up just to prove that he can because people keep saying how happy they are to see them together, well, I don't think he wuld do that but I hope he gives a real long try andnot just a one regular season game and then if they don't score a bunch of goal that he will spit them up.

 

[dechire]

I want Stamkos to put in exactly as much effort as it takes to convince Cooper to keep him and Drouin together. No more and no less.

 

[LightningStrikes]

27-91-86 is happening!
