• The leaders for the Lightning are Vincent Lecavalier (45g), Martin St. Louis (52a, 91p), Andre Roy (104 PIMs), and Nikita Alexeev (+10).

I still hate the Lightning after the Flames lost to them in the finals. They seemed like a bunch of whiners and I'm not a big fan of the Fonz either...

And that puck was in (its too bad we couldn't get Gelinas back just for this game)...

I really don't like these guys so I'm going to say that our boys make a statement and absolutely destroy Tampa 6-1. Goals by Jarome Iginla (3), Craig Conroy, Dion Phaneuf, and Robyn Regehr for the home team. Brad Richards scores for the bad guys...
