Well, the streaking Lightning decided to put an exclimation point on their return to Tampa…
Not exactly a positive one at that…
Six goals allowed in the first 30 minutes of action –helped by inept defensive play — is all I could stand to watch tonight… I also couldn’t stand watching the continuation of hands-off officiating that has marked it’s return in the NHL.
The one postive I can find from this game is Brad Richards point streak continues… Maybe something else good will come from this game - like the acquisition of a sound goaltender that puts both John Grahame and Sean Burke to shame…? 
One can hope, right?

worst Bolts game I have ever been to, and I went to a bunch of games when they were the worst team in the league.
the first Lightning game I get a chance to see live and the highlight is the huge brawl at the end of the game. just horrendous goalie play, although I don’t really blame Grahame since he got thrown in to the game after it was already a blow out.

So we came back from my mom’s house in Gainesville early to go to this game?
The club owes me Thanksgiving leftovers!

I forgot the game was even on, and by the time I tuned in it was 4-0. WTF? But I suffered through ’til the end.
However, the worst game I ever saw was in ‘98 or ‘99. I travelled to D.C. to visit my brother, and to watch the Bolts play the Caps. Caps 10, Lightning 1. It was sooooo bad, that Gary and I were cheering like maniacs whenever the goalie touched the puck and it DIDN’T go in.
On the bright side, some Caps fans felt sorry for us and bought us a beer each. It was the best “pity beer” I ever had.

We should try to trade for Roberto Luungo, he seems to be avaible.
