ECQF GDT: Lightning in the Swamps of Jersey

John F · April 12th, 2007, 01:38 PM

Tampa Bay at New Jersey -- lets get it on...

John F · April 12th, 2007, 02:58 PM

So does anyone give substance to Erik E's speculation Janik will be dressed tonight and bring the D corp up to seven for the game?

janik will be scratched tonight.

Starting lineup for Tampa Bay - Prospal-Lecavalier-St. Louis; on defense Dan Boyle and Paul Ranger
For New Jersey - Sergei Brylin-John Madden-Jay Pandolfo and on defense Colin White and Brian Rafalski

John F · April 12th, 2007, 03:24 PM

All right, that settles THAT speculation. It would have been interesting though...

So, any predictions on performance? Feds actually play worthy of a higher line? O'Brien playing without gitters (rookies... really

)?

John F · April 12th, 2007, 03:27 PM

C.A.A would be an intimidating place to play, seeing all those banners in the rafters.... well, if the arena wasn't a P.O.S. to begin with and in the middle of nowhere.

Holmqvist staves off the Devils PP with a great save.

John F · April 12th, 2007, 04:12 PM

2-1 New Jersey. The Lightning are going to have to find an offensive threat on even strength. Marty's goal comes on a 5-on-3 PP. If I recall, that amounted to the Lightning offense versus the Senators last season.

Holmqvist. Eh....

astro2818 · April 12th, 2007, 04:13 PM

Holmqvist is really struggling out there. Hopefully, he settles down.

Great goal by Marty.

Sorry, JF, I know Perrin's your boy and all... but he looks like crap on the ice tonight.

John F · April 12th, 2007, 04:24 PM

Perrin's my boy? Oh, I did say he'd be the best worst player in the NHL this season (Mike Chen's hockey blog should have more on that)... I wouldn't say he's stinking up the place like other forwards out there who still find their way onto the top line with Vinny and Marty....

John F · April 12th, 2007, 04:26 PM

And of course, Gary, we're still doing the GDT on da 'Mag...

Well... at least I remember you being happy when the Bolts signed him. Maybe only due to his previous play w/ Party Marty. But--I assume you're talking about The Brad--at least Richards threw some body in the first, and set up that cannon shot from Marty.

John F · April 12th, 2007, 04:28 PM

The tale of this game is the Lightning overcoming (or not) the Devils defensive scheme. 6 shots on goal. 4 chances. They've gotta find a way...

xiix · April 12th, 2007, 04:44 PM

I had to make a beer run to the 7-11. Came back and told The Wife, "it'd better be 3-2 Bolts when I get down to the basement."

Alas...

John F · April 12th, 2007, 04:47 PM

I'm frustrated for non game reasons. Well, the dog is nagging me or attention. That's one. The other I can't say here for now.
