The Lightning game a few years back that we ended up losing 7-6 in overtime was f***in brutal too
I remember this game because I've cited it a lot recently as when the team officially gave up on Cory Schneider and realized how much of a liability he had become. He started one more game after this before being waived. He eventually was recalled two different times later in the season, but this was pretty much the end for him.
The end really kind of came in that Panthers game that we had mentioned a few posts back, but after Blackwood had a couple strong games and wins right after that, he had that game against Arizona at home, which was one of his worst games of that season and a carbon copy of the Arizona home game last season. We outshot them like 30-something to 20 and he allowed 4 goals. Both those games actually. So Cory got yet another crack in that Tampa game.
This game is also famous for Taylor Hall's post game whining about how hard it is to have to play against the fans, on top of the other team on the ice, because fans were booing the team that night.
I know there's been no shortage of complains about it all over the main boards and this board, but the digital ads just keep getting weirder and weirder.
Between seeing advertisements for the visiting team (when you have their feed on) on the boards of the other team's building and then the moving car along the boards.
It's just weird at this point.
And then on some of the broadcasts (like ours) in between ads the boards appear bare, and it's a real throwback to the 70's and 80's when there were no ads on the boards and it was just plain white.
