gobolt7 Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Congratulations on a great series, you guys were clearly the better team. Good luck the rest of the way, and if you get the Flyers, I hope you pummel them. Scott Stevens is amazing. I have a whole new respect for him. Just remember, hopefully, we will be back next year, with a little more experiance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeakoftheDevil(s) Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Good game GB7. The bolts had a nice year and Im sure we will see more of them in years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Thanks GB7. Playoff experience is invaluble to a young team. It should help the Lightning in seasons to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek21 Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Congrats again to NJ fans. Their team just had too much experience against a young Bolts' squad. They sure look tough to beat. I'm sure whoever wins the Philly-Ottawa series should make for a great EC Final match-up. Kudos to GoBolt. Your team has a bright future. Tortorella is a good coach. Anyway, just wanted to pass along this late breaking story: AP Newswire "Missing Lightning Bolt" Tampa Bay is searching for one of their players. He goes 6-4 205 pounds and was last seen pale as a ghost last week. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Vinnie Lecavalier, please contact the authorities.

devilsrule33 Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Derek, I saw him. He had pretty much abreakaway in OT and shot it over the net and wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHofSec234 Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 GB7, that is an exciting young team you have there. This year will be a building block for the team and the entire organization. Congrats, enjoy your summer (it's always summer in Tampa, isn't it? ), and rest up....training camp is only 18 weeks away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMinder Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 GoBolt, thanks for the wishes. The Lightning really put up a fight last night. The experience should help them become a better team next year. Hope you stick around and talk hockey during the year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJayDevil Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 Very respectful fan, that's the way it should be. I think the Bolts will only get better, don't think they will turn into a Carolina (doing good in the playoffs than flopping the next season).

sundstrom Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 they don't have the makeup to have a carolina collapse. they're not reliant on aging players and their goaltender is a proven commodity as opposed to the canes who needed big contributions from francis, brindamour, and wesley while using Irbe/Weekes in net. Carolina will have a tough climb back IMO. TB should be solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vadvlfan Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 No one had the bolts as a team that would be in the thick of it early on this season. I thiunk they were a great surprise, and I think its only hte beginning for them. Solid goaltending, young big d- I just hope they dont go like the 96 devs, or last year canes. They've got some depth. Vince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
