Nothings gonna be easy but man, I was not impressed with either the flyers or islanders in that series.
I just think the bolts have finally found the right mix of skill and grit. Watching the flyers reminded me of past bolts teams. Trying way too hard to beat their opponent with skill. This years bolts team seems to have figured out ( finally ) that you need to work hard and grind. I voted Tampa in 6 on the main boards poll but I really wouldn't be surprised to see Tampa win in 5. Just feel really good about how the team is playing. Much different from any other year, even 2015. Time will tell though. Go Bolts!
Tampa’s scary Lineup full of power
About to expose Cinderella Isles midnight hour
Lightning striking in a city far away.
When the paralytic play that they covet so deep
Is exposed until they weep
Then they’ll realize victory too far away
Here come the Boys from the Floridian beach
Entering another Bubble treated in bleach
The Playoffs continue this time of year
And in Edmonton’s late summer heat
Those New York pylons we'll soon meet
While our hopes rest on Point, Hedman and some padded Russian guy
I got a feeling on the pond that’s frozen
That the rest allowed confidence to growin’
Happy to see Game Seven sap their soul
Today our Boys challenge was a moving day
While Islanders had to cling to their rock
Until we see them next address change
Though the matchup is not sexy
A daunting opponent, all can see
But the Lightning bring grit from all sides
Tampa’s scary Lineup full of power
About to expose Cinderella Isles midnight hour
Lightning striking in a city far away.
(Monday we go again)
(Vasilevskyyyyyyy, Vasilevskyyyyyyy)
The trolls let fly the choke belief
Same time everyday, same routine
But they’ll eat shit this Fall, when we are through
Even though we be missing two top snipers
We’ll make the Isles our arse-wipers
When the Trap is corrupted
Lightning strikes again
(Monday we go again)
(Vasilevskyyyyyyy)
Watch for the Lightning, falling from the sky
(Vasilevskyyyyyyy)
Watch for the Lightning, falling from the sky
(Monday we go again)
(Vasilevskyyyyyyy)
Watch for the Lightning, falling from the sky
(Vasilevskyyyyyyy)
In Edmonton’s arena, a city far away
Monday we go again!
