I want the Tampa Bay Lightning to play better, because they are such a happy crew. Behind-the-scenes from the Tampa Bay Magazine cover story:
And there’s adorable video too [link].
The Bolts are 11-13-2, while the cross-state Panthers are killing it and leading the division. That’s right, I said the PANTHERS. Remember when Rob Niedermayer played for them?
Stammer has 16 G/13 A, which puts him near the top in goals and points.
But they’re struggling to put together wins. The Lightning have dropped 9 of 15 games, including the last 4 in a row.
They play tonight against a team with a worse record – the Islanders. It would be nice to get a running start into tough road games against the Rangers and Flyers later this week.
