Yeah, "we have them right where we want them"

Get it to game 7 and let Hank do his thang. It'd sting a bit to be beaten by Rangers/B.

I think you'll see a good performance by them tonight.  I know they can't change who they are but sometimes I wish they'd learn to create more goals from passing plays rather than get them from screens and rebounds.

With these Chicago/Anaheim games going into OT/2OT/3OT I take back my statement where I said the West might sweep the East in the final. Whoever comes out of that series is going to be really tired.

You're basically arguing that they should do what they do on the power play all the time, haha. To that, in the words of John Pinette, I say "nay nay!"

The passing they do all the time, yes, but it's usually go shoot on goal and get rebounds or screen the goaltender or get a deflection.  That's not creating.  The goals the Lightning score are much more of the creating type.

It's funny. I told my gf that TB it's probably expecting the Rangers to hunker down and try and win a one goal game and that they should play off-type and make an offensive push.

As an ex-Rangers fan, who became a Lightning fan in 04 when the Rangers acquired that pansy Jagr, it was a fun series for me.

Would you care to put a wager on this? How about 1 dozen golf balls of our choice. If the hawks sweep TB in 4 you win. If they don't, then you owe me a dozen. How confident are you? Put your money where your mouth is.

Ah, so supporting your local team - I'll let you off :beer:   I hope the Lighting go on to win it now (for Callahan and Boyle, and, I suppose for, Stralman).

Didn't Boyle and Stralman sign with the Lightning as FAs?

    • For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...  
    • Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!
    • Like others have said, get fitted. Since 2011, I have played some combination of 4W + 7W. I had a Cobra 3H and 4H a couple of years back, and would swap out the 7W for a 3H in cold months (keep out of cold wind, and rough thinner for wayward drives.) The 7W matched up with yardage often with 3H; the current 4H goes almost as long as 7W, but has a lower trajectory. 4H also bumped out 4i in last bag redo; I learned to hit stinger with 4H so that's my driving iron on tight holes with shallow landing area. Again, a side-by-side test will tell you which way to go. If 5W or 3H is meh, keep the 7W. Also, are you looking to replace the 7W with a 5W or 3H, or add a second bridge club (5W or 3H) to your bag?
    • Makes sense and aligns with other literature. Static stretching, especially for longer durations, can impede performance in strength and power activities. I would not want to do like hamstring, quad, and calf stretches then go immediately sprint. To me that sounds like a terrible Idea. I would rather start off walking, then jogging, then running, then ramp up to sprinting.  To me, static stretching isn't even a warmup activity. I like the term warmup; you want to get some exertion going before the activity.      a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }
    • Going to Florida for the usual February golf trip, and with our current weather, that date won't get here soon enough. Heading to Augusta GA for the Tuesday Master's practice round, will definitely get some golf in while I'm in the area for a few days. Hope to be able to catch up with @coachjimsc if he's around. Then it's back to Scotland first of July.  Playing 7 new courses, can't wait for that.  Then somewhere after that is the Rhode Island CC Member-Guest and then my normal October golf trip to Myrtle Beach.
