Lightning versus Devils

[dmaxf9]

Team played very well after the SHG and Hagel was terrific and a +4. Forwards were back checking and supporting each other. First period marred by turnovers due to bad cross ice passes. Colton watching the puck and lost his man on New Jersey goal. Interesting that Raddysh played 3 more minutes than Perbix. Now, can Lightning go back to back?

Should have won the last game too but the hockey gods wouldn’t let them have it. Just something about the way the team buckles down and plays a good responsible game seemingly every time Stamkos is out of the lineup.

Lightning beginning to get their swag back. The team emotion after the first Stamkos goal following the 5 on 3 kill may really ignite this group. 4th line lack of speed needs to be addressed.

Egg laid in third game against New Jersey. Lightning resumed their old issues and looked slow and old. Stamkos had no SOG. 4th line offered nothing and needs to be retooled. Vasilevskiy still leaking uncharacteristicly. Hopefully they get back on track on road trip.
