Media hype

Is it just me or did the St. Pete Times and tampa Tribune give the Lightning too much credit for the win last night through their headlines in the papers?

For someone casually reading and just scanning the paper, you would have thought the game was a thriller. From those who followed the game statistically, or on FSN Florida (I couldn't see the game m'self but my friend with Verizon cable did) it was a joke of an effort by the Bolts and they were extremely lucky to get the tie and then get the win.

I mean, they were booed off the ice in the 2nd... That says a lot about the effort they were showing.
