It’ll all come down to containing Point & Kucherov - Anderson needs to do to Kucherov what he did w CBJ a couple of playoffs back goading La Femme Nikita into penalties.I think we’ll have to be the significantly better team at even strength to have a good shot to win it. But we were against Vegas for most of the series so I’m cautiously optimistic. I don’t think Tampa is that much superior to Vegas, other than in goal.

Furthermore, Kucherov got suspended for boarding Markus Nutivaara because of all the abuse including cross checks he was taking by Anderson
He’s on his way via private jet to TBay and is a game time decision - Luke Richardson said a couple of minutes agoArmia was tested again this morning and is waiting for the result. The most rapid PCR test result is a minimum 5-6 hours so . . . I don't see how he can play tonight even if it comes back negative.
2 hours would be the absolute minimum. I mean the specimen had to sit for an hour before it can be plated. Assuming they had a full plate (96 specimens) ready to go, it would be another hour or so to run and result.He’s on his way via private jet to TBay and is a game time decision - Luke Richardson said a couple of minutes ago
BTW - I can get PCR test results within 45-min just down the street from my house at a private test center
What happened to Wes McCauley?
Good to see Lee isn't assigned.
All of them. They all need to be worried about going in the corners. If they're worried that they might get a stick in the ribs and it'll make them pull up a little, like what happened with Vegas, we're rolling.Kucherov needs to be continuously tenderized in this series.
Rumors that 10,500 fans will be allowed for games 3 and 4.
Apparently Tampa hasn't been playing to a full house in these playoffs. For round 3 they were only allowing 14K and change. For the finals they are increasing that to 16K.Rumors that 10,500 fans will be allowed for games 3 and 4.
Not the loudest crowd either.Apparently Tampa hasn't been playing to a full house in these playoffs. For round 3 they were only allowing 14K and change. For the finals they are increasing that to 16K.
