it makes it so that instead of 3rd playing 6th and 4th vs 5th, its 3rd vs 4th, and 5th vs 6th, that's the only difference, and its lame, why finish high seed and get the disadvantage? lower seeds play 5th seed yet you have to play the 3rd seed? even though your 3rd you play 4th, not 5th...(frank)..

we fight hard all season to get a high seed just to get a disadvantage come playoff time by playing the higher seed than you would if u finished 4th or 5th, I hate it

You're probably too young to remember but it just brings the divisional rivalries back. Like back in the Adams, Norris, Patrick and Smythe division days...Playoffs were like war!

Uh no ... you sir are younger then me... I would like to know what makes you think I am the youngest one here???

A hint to my age, I was at the University of Florida when the Bolts won the Stanley Cup. And I was at Game 7 of the Stanley Cup getting hammered with my friends living up every minute of that game.

Riley I think you win. We were all watching the Bolts become a reality when you were just a gleam in someone's eye.

A win tonight easily puts us back in home ice conversation. Let's rally boys! And get the big win!

We need help from the Isles, the Rags will be playing hard against the Habs Saturday. Our path isn't too easy with Philly and the Jackets fighting for position, Washington will probably just show up on Sundy and OV has his 50 so he will just be gliding around.

it's simple. Every post you make on here just leads me to further believe you are a player on the team. You know all the inside info. If that's not the case, you must be a small kid that can fit between all the secret passage ways that lead into your secret hiding spot where you can hide in the wall of the dressingroom and hear everything through a little crack. No adult size guy would be able to fit in there, but you can

I have no problem with anyone on here, I like everyone. Talking Bolts and getting everyone's opinions, were all different but we all have the Bolts in common.

I was 9-10 when the Lightning played their first season in the Expo Hall. Promise I am not a member of the team, but as I have said I have friends who work for the bolts in both the front office and training staff.
