B2B against Florida? Hell, half of our team will just be getting out of the training room when the 2nd game starts.

Leave it to Kane Brown and Walker Hayes to ruin both country music and a Lightning Saturday night home game.Whatever the f*** this is

I hope everyone in the arena boos the ever living hell out of Kane Brown.
If I lived in the bay area, I'd be tempted to buy a ticket to the Kane Brown concert just so I can show up in my Cernak jersey and heckle him all night.
Then again, he'd get a cut of my ticket revenue and I'd risk getting kicked out of the arena so maybe that's not a good idea, but it seemed like a good idea at the time I was typing it.

If we had to rely on Elliott it's not much worse than Knight. Knight doesn't really have the experience... except for the L last year.

Well for starters early games are not our best, which is game 3. Game 4 or tail end of the b2b (which is opposite of how we've done this year) is traditionally a loss. Best way to manage this early is split the games in Sunrise. Gotta get 1 of 2 there cause who knows how a b2b in the playoffs will end up. That's how I look at it anyways.
I'm not really worried if Elliott has to play.

If TBL can't overcome a series with a b2b in their own barn, they don't deserve the threepeat.

For better or worse I don't see Elliott playing regardless, but Elliott had a .912 S% in 1063 minutes this year vs. Knight with a .908 in 1740 minutes. Factor in that Elliott likely dips a bit if he plays as much as Knight, but then factor in that Elliott also has a lot more playoff experience...we're not talking 2021 McBackup here. It's pretty much a draw among backup goalies.

But it hits both teams the same way no? So in that sense it’s fair.

Except home ice is supposed to be an advantage and for the Lightning's pivotal home games, one is at a time guys aren't used to playing and the other the next day. No excuses though - if they want to move on, obviously they have to manage. For all the mention of how this could be the best 2nd round match up, seems somewhat surprising that this series would get questionable scheduling but then again it is hockey in the sunshine state, and therefore taboo.

Definitely. Their games collide with the Heat games too, great effort by the league to try and grow the sport down there huh.

A) I am so happy that there is more Lightning hockey to enjoy.
B) I am ecstatic to be done dealing with Toronto. Their fans are not fun (big understatement).
C) I am glad to see an all Florida series. We play each other well. It's going to be exciting.
