Former Lightning draft pick, current head coach to bolt prospect McKade Webster, and most importantly brother to THE Lightning legend Matt Carle.

This might be the best outcome. Pittsburgh misses entirely, and the Islanders end up in the Atlantic bracket...obviously it's tremendously unlikely the Islanders would beat the Bruins, but it's been a matchup we've had a ton of success with in recent years and, shit, the Isles did beat the Bruins just a couple years ago in the playoffs.

Yuck. You didn't have to share this.
Yuck? David Carle is a feel good story. He was drafted by the Bolts in the final round after being diagnosed with enlarged heart which ended his playing career. It's nice to see his coaching career amount to something.

Still would rather have Florida out because screw those guys. Buffalo and Pittsburgh really f***ing up here.

Ok, I didn't know that. I was simply reliving Carle nightmares. Thank you for making me feel bad now.

You know its funny. When the bolts had their great season, it felt like the teams achievement was constantly being diminished because of OT and the shootout. I don't think I've seen a fraction as much discussion about it for boston.
The bubble cup was supposed to be the hardest one to win until TB won it.

Bruins fan here, had a great time in Tampa last week, even though B.U. lost to the Gophers. I drank a lot at Hattricks, and whenever someone saw my "BOSTON" jersey and brought up the Bruins, I told them I often think about the 2019 Lightning. It's the hockey playoffs, after all, I'm a worrywart.
