That’s crazy! Tampa just had an entire power play without dumping it in, passing behind the net or cycling the puck at all!! And yes, I’m being facetious

Montgomery continuous his terrible decisions on picking goaltending starters.

Every time I thought Binner should start in October, he started Hofer. Now this is the 5th+ game since that Hofer should have started but he’s trying to either get Binner back on track or it’s something stupid like Jon Cooper is team Canada’s coach and they had that special bond during the 4 Nations or we are playing in Boston.

Tyler dropping guys in front of the net.
Lightning PP looking stifled.
Lightning players running into each other...
Sunny with a break.

Maybe they're getting beat up and wearing down?

The only sports events this year that are must see - the World Cup and Olympic Hockey. Italy has their work cut out for them.

Chicago was playing over their head...Bedard was driving the offense and now he's out - it's good to finally have a coach that doesn't look like the wooden Indian that used to be posted in front of the mall tobacco shops.

Binnington was not the issue in that period unless you bet Tampa -5.

They started playing poorly with Bedard. 3 wins in their last 12 with him and a few bad blow outs.

Sharks, Hawks and Kraken all regressing to expected performance after starting well. Ducks still punching above their weight, but they have one of the best in the biz in Coach Q, so they may stay there awhile.

It’s easy to see if a goalie is confident or tracking the puck and Binnington has not been tracking the puck well at all. The first goal he was sliding when the sloow tip happened.

Tampa should have scored on that lucky pad save when Binner went down with a Tampa player’s back facing the net who then passed it for a wide open tap in that was shot into his pad

They will make a run as soon as Bedard returns. Weird injury. Italy needs ti get over the qualifier hoodoo. They need to worry about Wales. Lucky Turkey was not in their playoff group.

Guys like Mailloux and Fowler turn into a pee wee defender when goalie aren’t making stops.

Man you just knew this would be a lackluster performance after the big win the other night.

A possible matchup with Wales in Wales scares me.

Turkey is a terrible opponent to have - the US might have their hands full
