Lightning

[Guest Jonesy Bull]

After last nights game, I dont this team has what it takes to win the Cup without a healthy Stammer....this happens every frickin year with key devastating injuries.

Yes hitting the panic button.

[Guest Jonesy Bull]

Guess I am in that group of "over-reaction" to a little bit of a slump.

Team looked good against Boston this weekend, so think we are hitting our stride.  I think it took a while for the new guys to blend in.

Still need a healthy Stamkos for the playoffs - thats the biggest concern right now.

This team has the toughness and grit that last years lacked. Not saying the Cup is evident but its should be more fun to watch this postseason.

Well might as well just delete this thread now!

This is going to go down as one strange year in sports... 

[Guest Jonesy Bull]

I really hope they can pull the playoffs by mid late Summer.  With Stammer having all this extra time to get healthy.  We have as good a shot for a long run as any.

Please God, help us get this virus under control and give us our Spots back, Amen!

[DELdaBull]

Amen. These 3 weeks have been brutal
