Bolts dominated that game save the last handful of minutes ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I hope the my sports jinx is lifted for the Rays, Bucs and, of course, most of all the Bulls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it was a nail-bitter, the Lightning dominated that series. Go Bolts! I'm just glad that they knocked the ******* Golden Knights out of there. After seeing what the Bolts, and other teams like the Caps, have gone through to get the prize, that franchise and fan base needs to pay some dues .......... you know, like failing to make the playoffs.

Those same rules will be in place when Seattle has their expansion draft 9 months. I am looking forward to them releasing the Kraken on their on ice video in the playoffs.

Guest Jonesy Bull Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Im watching the Boat parade and RayJay celebration. I live in S Tampa and there is a flyover with a Bolts flag.....and the Rays swept the Jays today. Is this real or am I living in a different dimension?

They've won 90 or more games 6 out of the last 10 years, including averaging 93 the last two years, so it's not like they're the Bad News Bears coming out of left field this year ......

Pitching and defense will get you there but you have to hit to win it. It would be a little bit of a surprise if they are able to hold down the Yankees and Dodger lineups in longer a longer series.

True but with MLB salary disparities being what they are (unless this has changed - gave up on MLB), it seems more miraculous than say the Bucs or Lightning winning. Historically we have lost any good (Crawford, Price, yada yada) players to richer teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From that perspective, I couldn't agree more ...... being more than competitive in that division is nothing short of miraculous.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
