TB fans seem to be far more arrogant and/or cocky than Chicago fans in this thread.
Sure, TB beat the 2 best goalies in the game in the playoffs. But they also went to 7 games against a fairly weak team in Detroit, MTL has **** defense and not much offense, and NY has crap offense.
Chicago will be a different animal than any team they have faced if CHI makes, as will ANA. It will be a great series, and i certainly can see TB winning. But give it up with the sarcasm and cockiness already.
It's not "cocky" if you're replying to the overwhelming belief that the Bolts will be absolutely trashed by the remaining Western teams. I'm sure that neither the Hawks nor the Ducks will underrate or disrespect the Lightning like the hockey world already has.
No Bolts fan has said anything remotely cocky. They've tried to rein in the rampant "herpa-derp West is Best" bull that happens every year.
If the Bolts do not win, so what. If they do, the West fans will just say it's because the West is so much harder and they beat each other up too much before the final. Bolts can't win in the eyes of the hockey world. They've already lost regardless of the series to come.
