Since my last update, the Bolts had just completed a 6 game losing streak after facing the Capitals at home. How have they done since?
2/16/13
Lightning 6
Panthers 5
There are two ways to look at this. On one hand, the Bolts end their losing skid. On the other hand, the Bolts had no business giving up 5 goals or having to go into OT to win a game vs. the Panthers. Pouliot (2 including the game winner in OT), Killorn, Stamkos (2), and Purcell all recorded a goal down in Miami.
2/19/13
Leafs 2
Bolts 4
The Leafs visit the forum and go home losers and the Bolts start to get back on track with a 2nd consecutive win. Better than that… they are back to looking and playing like the Bolts we all know they can be and love. Lecavalier, Stamkos, Killorn, and Carle (on a Power Play) lit the lamp.
The Bruins (9-2-2) fly south to face the Bolts (8-6-1) tomorrow at 7:30 pm in the Forum.
