Split the first two. Hopefully Cernak and Hedman are healthy for Game 3.
That one stings but it only counts as 1
Well that game is now in the rear-view. On the plus side, we got a game on the road and are taking the Leafs back to Amalie.
Rough game without Heddy and Cernak, but if there’s anything Coop and the boys have shown us, it’s that they adjust when they need to. Excited to see the bounce back Saturday and reminding Toronto what a championship caliber team looks like.
Past is irrelevant. We have a five game series with home ice advantage ahead of us.
Our home record is great, and taking one away was good. I think we rested player cautiously hence jeannot coming back and being able to fight pretty well. We might have exhausted some players tonight but hopefully Saturday brings heddy, essy, and churny
Well let’s not read too much into one game.
I honestly don’t know what to make of this one. Just a weird game. My only worries are of Hedy/Cernak’s health. We need them back. Also hopefully that was just a 1 off bad game from Vasi.
[removed]
Nick Paul doesn’t seem like his usual self. I know everyone is banged up this time of the year but I’m wondering if he’s dealing with something a little more serious.
Alright, time to buckle down chucklefucks, let’s just hope Cerny and Heddy are good to go for game three. Here’s to hoping the Leaf “fans” forget their vacation homes and stay away from thunder alley.
Also glad to see Jeannot beat the brakes off of someone, even if it isn’t the one who really deserves it.
I can’t wait to go to the game Saturday. Jeannot really changed the tone of the game and lit a fire under the team and this time, the Leafs can’t try to kneecap our guys without Jeannot making them face the consequences of their own actions.
See y’all at Game 3! Go Bolts and FUCK BOSTON!
Please destroy the leafs. So sick of the drunk idiot leaf fans in downtown Toronto.
First off fuck the mods for taking my post down, but also I still believe the game is better off without the Leafs fans, their hive mind mentality just makes watching games sucks.
Worst performance I’ve seen by the Big Cat in a long time. Definitely falls on the entire team, but I really hope Cernak and Hedman can get healthy ASAP.
If there’s any silver lining, it’s seeing Colorado get handled by the Kraken a second time. Wish our guys played half as hard they have so far this game. Really miss Gourde.
We really are just continuing where we left off last year against the Leafs aren’t we?
Ayy I got a real crappy version of the post-game up since yours was a little late tonight. I’m curious, do you use some kind of generator for the box score or just put in work? I’d like to be able to fill in if we end up without a post-game in the future.
Their captain gets a hat trick, ours was fucking invisible. Not the reason we lost, but fuck if it isn’t frustrating.
I know vasy didn’t play absolutely stellar, but if you all think this was his fault you are fucking insane. The amount of times I saw 2+ leafs jerseys sitting RIGHT FUCKING IN FRONT OF THE NET with not a single white jersey in sight was absolutely insane. Worst defensive performance I’ve seen in a while. Especially in a playoff game.
Cooper getting sassy in the post game interview
Not really a fan of Leafs fans calling all of Tampa soft because some drunk asshole wanted to chirp our boys in the penalty box. The leafs lost all of the fights tonight and the only time they want to hit is after the whistle with blindside headshots.
Self inflicted. Too many unforced errors. Give me ONE defenseman back for game 3 pleeze
5 game series with the next 3 of 5 at Amalie. Let’s ride
I’m sad about that ass whooping but not completely surprised after the one we laid on them.
I’m confused about how they finally figured out how to call an interference penalty with 2.5 minutes left. That soft tripping call in the first minute of the game that led to a goal l I think set the tone for the game.
Ultimately, I’m alright. This was only game 2. We are going to use this loss as fuel for games on home ice.
I’m glad I worked and missed it
I just wanted to say, as a Leafs fan comming in peace. Listening to Jon Cooper talk is my favorite part of any post game ever. Dudes awesome. Cya guys in game 3
FWIW, the final score was 7-2
Also, if anyone knows a specific prayer or healing dance to help us get Heddy and Cernak back by Saturday, please let me know.
Game 3 will be huge. Hopefully Stamkos will return to the team, now that the games aren’t into Toronto. Offense looked great Tuesday and generated chances tonight… they’ll be fine. And not worried about Vasy, he really had no chance tonight.
Already pumped for Saturday!
Not sure why, but it seems pretty common for the Bolts to lose in embarrassing fashion in Game 2 of a series. It seems we can get scoring through our entire line up, while Toronto hasn’t scored with too much depth so far. If we can shut down the top 2 lines, or even 1 of the top two lines, I like our chances. Say prayers and Hail Marys for Jeannots hand!
Fly home. Heal up. Move on. This is playoff hockey, not always pretty or fun.
Leafs fan here in peace. Tough game. We’ve basically just traded dumpster fires.
How much of tonight do you guys figure was just bad luck vs the struggle of having to compensate for no Hedman/Cernak.
Hey at least we aren’t Leaf’s fans after being blown out.
Ahead in the series. Let’s skull fuck these pussies at home
I’m extremely happy that April 18th saw a powerful win for our Lightning team. As for tonight, we know that our defense was diminished with 77 and 81 out injured. As it was on April 20th, the skating defensive play allowed some 29 shots on goal to reach #88 by the end of P2, and 37 when the lights were turned off. The weakness apparent. Vasilevskiy performed at less than half of his save average. Given that the skating defense was so reduced, I’ll offer Vasy a 50% pass, so I’ll rate him at about 70% of his average. He must do better. Our offense generated a WEAK 22 shots on goal for the Leafs net guard to handle. *He* allowed just one goal per eleven SOGs. That’s a smidge worse than *His* average, but not horrifically. So basically, all our key numbers, (in my opinion they’re *Key*) were considerable ***Off !*** Every segment of the Lightning’s work needs to be far better than what they exhibited in game two, and we *Know* that they have it in them!.
Is it safe to walk home through Ybor City after bar close or will I get mugged
