Coburn collects a puck and throws it in on Grubauer. Cirelli is there for the rebound. He puts it home. Six. To. One. Gettin' late early at Amalie. #TBLightning
Ondrej Palat was in his own zip code all alone in the right faceoff circle.
Stamkos found him. It's 5-1 now in favor of the #TBLightning. That'll chase Varlamov.
Some flat out gorgeous passing leads to another #TBLightning goal. This time it's Killorn putting it home at the end of the string. Bolts lead the #Avs 4-1.
Colorado gets one back. MacKinnon looks for a pass, then decides to fire it in through Domingue's 5-hole. 2-1 #TBLightning lead the #Avalanche in the first.
An errant #Avalanche pass slides into the neutral zone, and Stamkos picks it up all alone. He buries the breakaway chance. #TBLightning up 2-0 in the first.
#TBLightning goal! Steven Stamkos on the power play from his usual spot in the left faceoff circle. Varlamov didn't have a chance. 1-0 lead over the #Avalanche
More attendance woes in #CawlidgeHawkey this week, and how Thunderstix came to Hockey East fifteen years before BC thought to give them out, this week on Puck University with .@cclynchwall! https://t.co/KmTqEQfHDB
Still mad at myself for not keeping a pair of them for posterity. I've been told we even got a letter from Hockey East saying to never do it again, even though it's not like the Dog House hurt anyone with them. ...Miraculously.
I hear Boston College hockey gave out Thunderstix tonight.
As the person responsible for introducing Thunderstix to Hockey East I feel ripped off. But hey, maybe I'm just SIXTEEN YEARS ahead of the curve. Just another thing that started at Matthews I guess... #CawlidgeHawkey
