Doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Umm...not quite....more that a healthy Bishop would have sent the game to OT...you can't seriously thought I wanted a gimp to stay in?

Bob - The guy was completely off his game. He was replaced twice. So I don't know where you get that from. Crawford was way shakier than Bishop was, with whatever was wrong with him. Oh, and an ice cold backup came in and completely blanked you while spending most of his time out manned. If that doesn't concern the hell out of you, you're not being honest with yourself.

Also - before the LoCT (Legion of ChicagoTards) - start foaming at the mouth and banging into walls without their helmets on, cuz "now they have ta come to OUR building" - like it's made out of Kryptonite or something..bear in mind that the Lightning have already traveled to three of the most storied venues in the NHL this playoff season -

The Joe
Bell Center
Madison Square Garden

Their playoff road record? 8-3

In other words, your building doesn't mean jackshit - in fact, it fires them up. It's not a good thing for you.

I'm not sure where I introduced the home ice "disadvantage" the Hawks have suddenly, but you beat a so so Detroit team at the "Joe" and forget about the Caps, but have you been to a game at the "Gawden"?........I've been to louder funerals.

And looking forward to the Legion of Lightning...oh...that's LOL fans...oops...fan to show up....that Greyhound schedule is a bitch...

We're not winning the Cup with Vasilevskiy. It's an unfortunate truth.

You should have had at least 4 goals (on 19 shots), but the horseshoe finally fell out of his ass when he let in the winner.

I thought the Lightning thoroughly outplayed the Blackhawks again. The goalie's were the difference - Crawford stood on his head, the Lightning peppered him all night (not real quality shots mostly, but made him work) while the Blackhawks had quality shots that went off the posts or went wide. Vas was beaten any number of times last night, and it finally caught up with him.

Once again, Coop waits until less than two minutes to pull him, all the while the Lightning had full puck control in the offensive zone - once we had 6 on 5, we swarmed mercilessly - a few more ticks could very well have been the equalizer.

Hopefully we get Bish back for the rest of the Finals.

regardless of how it turns out, i gotta say i love phil esposito. have had the good fortune to talk to him a couple times, and he's just awesome during games on the radio. he's my favorite to listen to when a game is on.
