Michael Stuart: Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down: Lightning Snap Losing Streak

It's possible that the compressed schedule is getting to some of the players. Fewer days off with more games against divisional opponents. Many of this season's games have had playoff-like intensity at times. Combined with the general pooptiness of the world on their offdays (pandemic, politics, dogs and cats living together), the guys might be prone to more injuries and more funks. Some might be distracted by off-ice stuff we aren't privvy to.

I'm not overly concerned....(yet).

The Bolts have leaned hard on their goaltending since Bishop, so this isn't really a new thing - it just seems accentuated by the pile of injuries. That right-side defense was a dumpster fire waiting to happen.

These last couple of games, I can't help but think - how would this have went if Kucherov was on the ice?

Super excited to go to game tomorrow! Nothing like attending Nhl games!
We will renew our season tickets when this pandemic is over. Had ticks since Vinik purchased team

Anyone else with ticks going? Wear a mask, come on support our local team!

- Justbecause

How much are the cheap seats going for now? I haven't been to a game in over 20 years. My wife has never been to a hockey game. We were planning on finally going when the pandemic happened. Once we get vaxx'ed, I want to go.

Colton.

Stephens has to be a little worried about his job at 4C.

For those keeping score, Borgman and Schenn were both on the ice for that goal.

Vasy... Vasy... Vasy... Oi... Oi... Oi

Can't believed he was needed to preserve the win but again the Bolts are half playing most nights. I really hope its more to preserve themselves for the playoff then just laziness that can creep up to the point they can't fix it.

Tyler Johnson is out their coasting.. I don't know what they do with him to be honest... I would rather he sit when Stephens comes back then take Colton out of the lineup.
