The real dog of the night was Feds, he blew it on that fourth goal. He had about four chances to just dump it down the ice and he lost it on the boards on their blue line, he lost every battle on the boards and he doesn't seem to have the drive to turn the corner anymore. Torts will adjust for the trap in practice today and we come out on top Sat.

Karri Ramo's going to end up starting at one point or another in this series and the Lightning getting humiliated because of it isn't going to bode well for Torts ina media that is already hostile to him (the national NHL media) And now people can crap on Tortorella — he gambled saying Denis will sit out the playoffs and you know what?
