@jayRecher Exactly.

Lightning and Canadiens should be playing this game in the ECF, not in the first round. Let's please go back to the 1-8

@Draven1683 Why would they help TB? They have not won since 22.. if anything, the league would want new stars, a hot young team of stars to win. Say what you want, but the refs have no love for TB.

Goaltender interference. Jokes. Don’t ever tell me the refs aren’t here to help Tampa Bay. #TBvsMTL #GoHabsGo

@_JordanDecker I think power plays are pretty even.

Tampa’s gotten the majority of the calls all series and these people said Habs fans whined about the refs to much. As soon as they stop getting the calls though…..

@HabsChronicle Horrible non-call too..

HORRIBLE CALL

@BoltsJolts Yep. Just couldn't find a crease to the net. Habs are all over the net though. Hard to find a lane

If the PP looked like that the entire series, this series would have been over already. Best PP of the series by far, just couldn’t find a finish.

@BoltsJolts Just equal the effort or better for game 7. There were a few times where shots stopped. But they picked the hustle back up. Thought OT was great

All I wanted tonight, other than a win obviously, was for TB to show some fight. Show that they aren’t just gonna allow the last game and go into the offseason quietly. Regardless of how this game ends. They did that. They have all been doing work tonight.

@ECloskyWTSP Changes still have to happen. But that was a great game.

Regardless of what happens, the Tampa Bay Lightning have emptied the tank tonight. They've played a great game. A little bit of bad puck luck along the way. Having said that, Julien BriseBois has to regret not getting help for this power play at the deadline.

@JeffreyGiarriz1 @957WDAE @TKras Have to hold onto the younger players. James for sure.

@957WDAE @TKras End of an era if they lose? No. End of the roster as constructed? For sure. Bagel, Cirelli, Moser under contract for a while and that's good. Anyone else should be traded if an overwhelming package was offered. Example: Lightning getting a bunch of first round picks for Point.

Do you believe in the Tampa Bay Lightning tonight? If it’s a loss, is this the end of an era? @TKras says yes, it is. #GoBolts

@CrashGladys I think Elvis made plenty of women faint on site ... that's all you see in the old footage of his early days

Before Taylor & after Elvis: Michael Jackson. TBH, I’m not sure Taylor or Elvis made fans faint on site. Regardless what you think, MJ’s talent was ridiculously insane, his live performances would still hold up today & he had the most diehard fans!🤯 x.com/auntyadaa/stat…

@BenjaminJReport Is anyone still sick? Heard reports the other day.

@BoltsBreakdown Im betting on another 3-2 game

My game six prediction: a 3-0 Andrei Vasilevskiy shutout. Tommy says 6-2 Bolts. What is your GM6 prediction?!

@AndrewMentock What happened?

Notre Dame safety Joey O’Brien, a five-star in the class of 2027, used crutches to walk off the field after Saturday’s Blue-Gold Game. He just posted this photo to his Instagram stories.

@SamuelBCohen I dont think the majority of people discredit the Habs, but the effort by the Bolts was lacking. They were not sharp. Leaving oucks sit behind the goal on miscommunication.. bad passes. Lazy turn overs. That's the criticism.

A lot of people (myself included) are quick to blame the #GoBolts effort last night. We all need to collectively take a step back and realize, the Habs deserve credit for playing better hockey. They’ve been better on FOs, Blocking Shots, line changes, etc. They deserve credit.

@wlesch2006 @IdkHowToNameTBL 71 can go. What's he done. Keep 17

@IdkHowToNameTBL Keep 38,59,71,90. Anyone else, I mean anyone, can go if the price is right.

Whether we win this series or not, changes have to be made. Whether it be coaching or trading players.

@AJBolts Yeah he did say they wete sloppy. But I didnt get the sense he was happy about that, more disappointed. Like he expected more.

@indytwo He certainly enjoyed talking about Tampa not doing well

ESPN leaving this game, the pivotal game of the best series of the playoffs, to Steve levy and TJ Oshie on ESPN 2 is certainly a choice

@scrotusIII @sgreene533 @PierreVLeBrun @TheAthletic Perry is old. But we purposely got him for this moment. We need to look at new blood and younger. Can't keep getting yesterdays success story in players.

NEW for @TheAthletic, the Lightning need some of their top veteran stars to step it up or else a fourth consecutive first-round awaits. It starts with Nikita Kucherov ⤵️⤵️ nytimes.com/athletic/72426…

@sgreene533 @PierreVLeBrun @TheAthletic Paul didnt play last night.

@PierreVLeBrun @TheAthletic He’s not alone?.. where’s n the fuk has Cirelli ….Point been?..Nick Paul? wtf

@JacksonB_99 Hags. James, guntzel and actually borkstrand were the ones I noticed hustling. Bork can't score but effort was there.

Last night’s game was very deflating. Nobody outside of a handful of players looked like they ever got out of second gear during the entire duration of the game. Really, really disheartening. A potential elimination game in Montreal is about as worst case scenario as imaginable.

@ECloskyWTSP Wow. Someone should figure this out

On March 17, the Tampa Bay Lightning scored 2 goals in SEA in 1st period. Led game 2-0 entering 2nd. Since then, a span of 21 games, the Bolts have not scored 2 goals in a 1st period. They have lost the 1st by a combined 20-9 score. Have not won a 1st in 20 straight games.
