Meanwhile, my other team (Washington) is absolutely obliterating the Flyers, which should make everyone happy. Because f*ck the Flyers.

No, his HAND was taped and while they were dicking around, he actually asked the ref, "Will I get a misconduct if I drop my gloves and my hand is taped?" Answer, yes. He already has one game misconduct.

…. refs couldn't let him skate on the next one ?

Correct. If Abdelkader would have dropped his gloves and had Boyle bled at all, even if Boyle kicked Abdelkader's a$$, it's an automatic Game Misconduct for Abdelkader. In the playoffs, 2 GMs gets you automatically suspended for the next game.

We got ourselves a really good game. Huge PP opportunity for the Bolts!

Palat!!! Man that was awesome.

Really love Druin, you can see how talented he is. Plus it's a little bit of a redemption story too

Way to go Lightning! 3-1 lead and headed back to Tampa to finish the job.

Just great playoff hockey. Hats off to the wings. It was a clean hard fought game

Puck movement on the game winning goal was stellar. Bringing it home to clinch on Thursday!

Forgot to post in this thread last night, but way to go Lightning on being the first team of the 2016 NHL Playoffs to advance to the 2nd round. Sure, the game winning goal was off a fluke play, but if not for Callahan's forecheck and Killorn's positioning for a redirect in front of the net, Game 5 heads to overtime. Now we get time to rest up as hopefully the Islanders and Panthers (suck it, Panthers) beat each other to a pulp en route to a Game 7 finish.

Let's go Lightning! *clap clap clap-clap-clap*
