Description

The issues the lightning have been able to mask the past couple of seasons by outscoring/outwinning these problems are on full display now. Everytime I watch this team now I hate to think it but i'm serioiusly beginning to question whether this cast will ever be able to deliver a championship despite the undeniable talent. At this rate the bolts would be lucky to be swept in the first round again, as the way they have been playing they don't deserve to even make the playoffs at all

What I have been saying since last year .
It obvious they a regular season team and their talent is over rated .. my niece cam have 30 pts .. more than Gourde .. playing with Kuch amd Point .. shrimps are just over paid role players

I DARE THE DISNEYLANDERS TO DEFEND THE SHRIMPS .. they KILLING whole team and Cooper needs to go by Xmas .. If not write off the season and fans DONT show up at Amalie in orde to force change ..

See you nailed it .. when asked to play defense .. Tampa forwards stink .. the internal Tampa culture last 5 years has rewarded internal players who have inflated point totals and regular season attendence for the entertainment value .. period. How to fix this?.. fire leadership and flush half the team .. it that bad
