Game Thread: Montreal Canadiens @ Tampa Bay Lightning

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Should they put Filppula on Stamkos's line? Ovechkin has Backstrom, Perry has Getzlaf, who sets up Stamkos? Palat?

 

[I_Shall_Return]

JT is sooooo quick. A hitter too!

 

[I_Shall_Return]

Bolts on the PP!!!! I wish Stammers would just step up & be a well rounded player instead of "just" a sniper. Oops, damn the ice & rink looks awesome!

2-0!!!!!! Stammer!!!!!

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Stamkos scores!

 

[I_Shall_Return]

PP SCOOOOOOOOORE!!!!!! 2-0 BOOOOOOOLTS, STAMKOS GETS HIS FIRST!!!!!!

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Price has looked shaky to start this season.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

Both Stamkos & Filpp are Centermen.

Both Stamkos & Filpp are Centermen.

True but who is the playmaker on Stamkos's line?

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Gallagher makes it 2-1, can't really do anything about that one.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

I really don't know...Damn 2-1 Bolts. I really don't think the team knows who to put with him. His line changes a lot. Ever since Marty left, he's been a bachelor!

I guess they expect Drouin to be MStL when he gets healthy?

 

[I_Shall_Return]

I think so Doobee. Stamkos needs someone to feed his wheelhouse.

Brandon, did you see on that other thread someone tried to call Gudas a dirty player?

Brandon, did you see on that other thread someone tried to call Gudas a dirty player?

I didn't see that and probably a good thing that I didn't. Gudas is far from a dirty player. He steps up as the "enforcer" so to speak if you could even go that far but the Lightning don't really have anyone that fits that bill. There isn't a dirty player on the Lightning.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

Yup, I agree. I said something about their remark. Gudas is just a tough old fashioned hip checking son of a gun! Definitely doesn't go after anyone to hurt them.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

Nice job by JT on the PK!!!!!!!

 

[I_Shall_Return]

So far the Bolts look a lot more awake & sharp than they did the last 2 games. But they just said that Montreal has been outscored 5-1 in the 1st period. The ice really looks great tonight guys!

 

[brandonk989]

Haha great presence of mind by JT to pull that puck back out. Good start. Have to finish.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

You guys ever notice that the Bolts play better against the better teams & seem to not know what to do with the shitty ones?
