Ah shit, here we go again
Round 1, let it begin
Lets start off with a dub
Won't be long and they'll be hittin' the strip club
Esposito can't pronounce Bobrovsky's name
Bobbarofsky, Bobroffsky, to him it all sounds the same
I wonder if lil bro finally grew up
Living in our shadows, still without a cup
Matthew, you're not supposed to chew the mouthpiece
Your brother Brady could pass as Sloth's niece
This is gonna resemble fight club quick
All their star players, but they lack a Big Dick Nick
Tkachuk, Reinhart, Barkov
I raise you Point, Stamkos, and Mr. Nikita Kucherov
Vasy
Don't be assy
Surprise us and win game one
Or else I wrote this just for fun
Time to close this one out with a bang
Over/under two bench jumps from Darren Pang?

 

[DaBolts]

I have only one prediction for this series:

Vasy returns to old Vasy and then some.

GO BOLTS!

 

[Tampa22]

Good morning, need the time goes fast! Can't wait for the game!!! Let's go Lightning!!!!!!

 

[Peacefool]

Go Bolts! Just Win!!

 

[StammerHammer]

After reading Cooper's quote it doesn't sound like any of the Lightning players are going to be joining us on this highly inspiring board. It's all good anyway.

Lightning got this.

Go Bolts!!!!

 

[gn2007]

First lightning goal will be point or duclair from kuch. Or a random third line hero emerges, chafee!

 

[UseYourHedman]

Playoff hockey baby. Let's Go!

 

[JFleegs]

Anyone know if this will this game be on Espn plus? I’m flying out of Tampa today may miss the ending and hoping to avoid spoilers til I get home.

Lets gooo bolts!!

 

[Point21]

Just made it to Sunrise! Hopefully we get the first 60 minute effort of the season

Let us know if it's the usual 10K Bolts fans to hobos ratio there.

 

[Brie]

Now that we're here it's hard to remember that there was a time when we weren't sure if we would be standing here today but it's very exciting. Need to get going from the time the puck drop and not let up.

Let'd go Lightning!!

 

[DaBolts]

My keys to the game so I can start drinking beer in 40 minutes (gonna need it this series):

1. Nullify the first 10 minute storms in games 1 & 2. No matter what, they will come out aggressive and flying. Don't let them score or get easy chances.
2. Let Vasy get his rhythm. Trust in Vasy. He is our Playoff god.
3. Don't be afraid to shuffle the lines. The Puddytats are creatures of habit. Move Stammer and Hagel up and down to keep them guessing. Confuse their defense.
4. Forecheck. Their defense is okay, but soft and prone to penalties. Let's get in their heads early so they make late game mistakes.

GO BOLTS!

It's not on ESPN+. (edit: actually, I don't know. The ESPN feed isn't. The Bally streams might be)

The TNT games will be on Max.

 

[Stammertime91]

I
AM
PUMPED.

LETS f***ING GOOOOOOO

 

[bov]

Win or lose, this had to be the match up. Great for hockey fans and the state of Florida.

Vasy is the obvious X factor, but I think this series will come down to depth. Let's see how they handle it.

 

[JoVel]

I just hope everyone has fun and we can get along with each other after the game.

I'm not completely sure, actually. This game is on both linear ESPN, and Bally Sun.

ESPN+ might have the Bally Sun feed for out-of-market.
