One game at a time to complete the reverse sweep. Let's go Bolts!

I think Tampa has one final stand and wins this one before we take them out.

Sucks for Stamkos. Probably one of the few times he's actually been their best skater in the POs.

Tampa is looking more and more like post 2015 Chicago. I thought they'd have more of a punch left, and possibly even another run in them, but they seem content in going out in a whimper.

I still would like to see some life out of them, and see them mount a comeback, but we'll see.

I say they win 4-1 tonight.

Good chance TB finally gets one here. Unless our captain shows up on the scoresheet.

TB can't hang 5v5.

That will be the difference again.

Sorry I'm so late to the party, I was asweep.

the reverse sweep begins....tonight

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Not expecting a sweep but I’ll take it. Just hoping for a clean game

TB may be the cleanest team in the playoffs, just ask TJ Luxmore

Great gtd, but I think the tb lineup is missing Luxmore.

Lightning aren't done until 4 loses, and it's been closer series than 0-3 indicates, but that's being a loser no matter how one slices it. Teams/players either get it done or don't!

Florida players/team has done just that, especially during 3rd/OT periods when "Cup" contenders take close games. Even with NHL/E$PN trying to help Lightning extend series, with their famous game/series managing antics. Lightning didn't take advantage of such gifts (Not what legit "Cup" contenders do). Florida deserves much kudos for surviving that scenario and stepping up when it mattered most in every game. Now it will take Lightning team, that went 10-0-2 this yr after trade deadline, to have a any chance to pulling the impossible off. Starts tonight.....

Go Lightning !!!!

You’re not seriously knocking Barkov

You’re not seriously knocking Barkov

I mean technically he's not wrong. Got all his points in the first game.

That being said I actually thought he had a really good 2nd game. Was setting up lots of chances but no one could finish.

Was a bit more quiet offensively in game 3 but created a few nice scoring chances for himself.

[Gordian Knot]

TBL players have their beach gear already packed, not even trying 100 % on the ice.

 

[teugen]

You’re not seriously knocking Barkov

He has been stellar on shutting down Kuch, but if we want to go all the way, a couple of points wouldn't hurt the team.

 

[BMOK33]

I cannot imagine the Bolts are gonna come out as flat as last game, that said no guarantees even if they score first they'll win but I feel most confident out of TB/NYI/WSH of the Bolts forcing this 5

 

[CatscratchFever]

You’re not seriously knocking Barkov

He's my favorite Panther easily. My point was, if he brings the offense, TBL is gonna go out easily.

 

[dhfa]

Only way tampa wins is if the panthers let off the gas and the lightning "stars" show up. Broomsticks are most likely IMHO

Hoping for the sweep so we can get Benny some resting time

Go Cats!
