"We didn't play poorly 5-on-5, we didn't give them anything," Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. "It was a total special-teams game. When you lose a hockey game and the losing team's players are plus and the [winning] team's players are all minuses, you know what decided that game."

"When you look at odd-man rushes, they were coming off our power play. Their penalty kill probably outchanced our power play and their power play scored. So to me that was the difference in the game." -- Lightning coach Jon Cooper

Nagyobb baj, hogy Stamkos megint lesérült. Méghozzá ugyanaz jött elő, amiért már idén is kihagyott meccseket.
