Lightning beat Red Wings, 6-3, behind pair of goals from Yanni Gourde

Perhaps it was the early start time, but for the first two periods the Tampa Bay Lightning and Detroit Red Wings decided that defense was optional. If it wasn’t for the play of Andrei Vasilevskiy and John Gibson there would have been even more than the seven goals the two teams combined to score. The Lightning emerged from those forty minutes with the 4-3 lead, and not only held off a surge from the home team, but added a couple of goals to win their sixth game in a row by a final of 6-3. ...

Trades, traditions, and jean shorts: A reason to be thankful for all 32 NHL teams

It’s Thanksgiving, at least among some of the lesser hockey countries. So today, I’m going to list a reason that I’m thankful for each NHL team. That’s it. No gimmicks, or clever twists. I promise I’m not even going to do the “Thanks for reminding us it could always be worse” backhanded compliment thing to anyone. Just one sincere, if slightly bizarre, reason to say a quick thanks to every team. >> Read the full post at The Athletic (Want to read this post on The Athletic for free? Sign u...

Lightning feast early, nap late in 5-1 win over Flames

Look. We’ve all done it. It’s Thanksgiving Day, the turkey comes out of the oven, and you tell yourself you’re going to pace yourself. You’re not going to over-indulge. Yet, twenty minutes later, with cranberry sauce dripping down your chin, you realize that you’ve just consumed the caloric intake reserved for a family of four. The next thing you know, you’re passed out on the couch. With four goals in the first ten minutes of the game, the Lightning devoured the Flames like they were smo...

Signs point to injured Lightning forward returning

While the Tampa Bay Lightning’s defense is still, in the words of their goaltender , “Syracuse-ish” it appears that the forwards are getting healthier. Brayden Point’s status might still be in doubt, but based on Tuesday’s practice, it appears that another center could be ready to return to the line-up. Pontus Holmberg, who has been out of the line-up since early line-up was taking a regular shift. He was also part of the unofficial sign of return as he led the team stretch at practice, a...

Lightning run winning streak to four behind Vasilevskiy’s shutout of the Flyers, 3-0

With a line-up that was missing it’s top center and three of their four most used defensemen, the Tampa Bay Lightning needed their best players to step up and take control against a feisty Philadelphia Flyers team. The Bolts answered the call as Andrei Vasilevskiy picked up his first shutout of the season with 20 saves while Brandon Hagel scored twice and added an assist. His linemates, Anthony Cirelli (1 goal, 1 assist), and Nikita Kucherov (3 assists) provided the rest of the offense as the ...

Takeaways: Flyers can’t beat Andrei Vasilevskiy, get shut out for first time this season

After a pretty exciting week, the Flyers went to Tampa and left without a goal. Brandon Hagel was the star of the game with two goals and an assist, while Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped all 20 shots fired his direction. A sluggish start lingered well beyond the first period, with the Flyers never really finding their offensive game. In the end, the Flyers left Tampa Bay with a 3-0 loss. The basics First period:  15:34 – Brandon Hagel (Emil Lilleberg, Nikita Kucherov) Second period: ...

2 Teams Named Trade Partners In Oilers' Goalie Search

No team in the NHL is as desperate for goaltending as the Edmonton Oilers , despite how Calvin Pickard played against the Tampa Bay Lightning in their previous game that should have been a win. The Oilers have two goalies, Pickard and Stuart Skinner, who they can't trust and something has to be done to fix that quickly, as the team isn't holding a playoff spot at the moment and it feels different than the last two seasons. Darren Dreger said, "I can't imagine (Stan) Bowman isn't making calls. ...
