The Lightning
Tampa Bay Lightning beat writer Bryan Burns reviewed the last game against the Nashville Predators and pointed out on some weakness of the Lightning play, including getting too many penalties [NHL.com]
Two of the Lightning’s five penalties, including the one in overtime, were too many men on the ice calls. Tyler Johnson said after the game he couldn’t remember a time seeing multiple too many men calls made on the same team in the same game.
”We’ve got to be smarter,” Stamkos added. “We took some offensive zone penalties, some too many men penalties, those are just easy, easy fixes. We believe in our group. We just have to dig deep a little bit and pay attention a little more to the details, and we’ll improve in those areas.”
The Lightning twitter account asked if some members of the Distant Thunder club are joining them in Sweden in one week.
Do we have any #DistantThunder we’ll be seeing next week in Sweden?
