WHY on earth is anyone defending a historic failure.. all time historic in NHL and 2nd worse in ALL SPORTS per ESPN .. Stamkos is a 5 on 5 liability. Cirelli a stud played 1st line center with Point .. Stamkos is a 3rd liner now.. trade for 2 #1s now before it is too late

Its too late.. he has that NMC thing

Ron Mclean'' Stamko's out there playing the series with a seperated shoulder ''

he just said it 2 minutes ago if that in the WPG vs STL 1st period intermission.

He’s a floater, never learned how to play D like Ovie did and that’s why he will never get to the top of the mountain.

Agree Stamkos D is matador .. great one time but a 3rd liner beyond that

hes injured

Throwing one player under the bus after your whole team lost? Also the same player that scored an extremely important goal as it kept your team in the game... And is the best / highest scoring player in your whole franchise...

If there's anything I hate it's the cancerous part of any team's fanbase. And you, sir, belong just there.

Here come the excuses... Stamkos hurt again .. every year ... ever think it BS? .. Hedmen was hurt and that mattered a ton .. made alot of those Tampa 'stars" look good.

lol 3rd liner?

come on man, **** like this is why our fanbase has the reputation that it does

He's going to secretly cheer for the Leafs just like Toews did with the Jets.

Burger Boss make me a double cheeseburger will ya .. lol .. but I am not .. and never will.. be a Disneyland fan and take it.. you kids dont realize the issues here .. Game 2 was the inflection point of the franchise..

please don't let this thread represent all of our fanbase.

we're not all this insane i promise

they need to stop serving you dude

Most of Tampa fans aren't real fans .. Lightning is a "cool thing to do" now since regular season winning .. lots of families and kids.. it like a carnival since other Tampa teams suck ..less than 10% know what offsides is and blindly wear their jerseys

Ovi plays D ?

what brand of Cannabis are you on Sir
mine obviously isnt strong enough to relate to this fantasy .

Ofc not. Tampa is my 2nd favorite team, I'm also pissed they lost.

[mod]



It's not like it's only Stamkos' fault TB had their worst 4 game span in the year. Everything went wrong from the start.

And no, I'm not making you any cheeseburgers. [mod]

you're one to talk lmao.. you're acting like the world is ending

honestly i feel you just described yourself .

i've seen real Bolts fans on here , Hedman77 for example who's not living in some sort of drug induced fantasy and talks about hockey in context. He'll criticize a specific thing that needs changed not just **** about Fantasy Hockey players because its the only ones these ''fans '' recognize . . . which is the problem with Fair Wheather Fans

If you were following Forrest .. Stamkos is the CAPTAIN of the team .
.leader ...example etc.. that the biggest issue and his 11 year career is in decline .. that is far from a stretch and has never been a playoff guy hence the team... along with Cooper

Been real .. goodbye all .. Hedmen77 be ready for that Arizona opener in October .. all the minions and sheep will be there ... caio

hahaha that's gotta be the stupidest thing i've every heard in my life and i cut meat for a living( you wouldnt believe the stupid **** i get asked )


as Kelly Hrudey pointed out 10 minutes ago ''you'd be a fool to break down this team beacause of this , WSH didnt and won a cup , PIT didnt and won 2 back to back ''

you sir need to talk less and listen more

supporting a team doesnt make you a sheep
it makes you a fan

being a prick
makes you a prick

just to clarify

my honest opinion is that Headman owed it to CBJ to step his self back on the ice after is really bad trash talking. He hid from them getting destroyed in the series.

Stamkos is fine. I never thought he was a top 5 center or anything, so I can't see how you can knock his play. It's been what it always has. Hell he showed signs of life in the final game, more than a lot of other players did. The problem TB has is there are so many small players in the top lines that they just get beat up and pushed around all over the ice. If it wasn't going to be CBJ it would have been Washington or Carolina doing the same thing to them.

Stamkos is awesome

putting CBJ and TBL rosters side by side sorted by size its almost identical .

TBL has 4 players 1 inch smaller then CBJ but TBL has 2 players that are 3 inches bigger then CBJ's biggest men .
given Point and Kucherov are among those small 4 players just under 6 foot i'd be stoked to give up an inch for that level of talent .
