Howie58 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Greetings: TB is favored (-122); they have taken 13 of the last 15 from us--the last 8 at Wells Fargo: https://www.oddsshark.com/nhl/tampa-bay-philadelphia-odds-february-27-2024-2019594 Our last win against them was October 2022. The tale of the tape presents a matchup of the league's best and worst power plays: https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/phi-vs-tbl/2024/02/27/2023020930 That reminds me of the "Gladiator" scene where Maximus and his fellow slaves take on the Romans--lots of wastage with survivors and not necessarily victors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ov1ua_9VrWg History says this will be a tough matchup for the O and B, and it comes after some disappointing losses with a depleted lineup. TB is heating up at the right time. The game may be pivotal. I'm fearful the wind is leaving our sails as we approach March 8th. LGF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 So Brink and Lycksell in. Cam Atkinson sits. Great news. But it gives them a better chance to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Brink with a real nice shot, stick side, for a goal. Sitting Atkinson has already paid dividends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 They are gonna play with dimmed lighting... Time for the forwards to start peppering the goalies.....vision will be compromised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskaFlyerFan Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I’ve played in an arena where they wouldn’t turn the lights on because it cost more to light the place for an hour than what we were paying to rent the ice. This is a whole lot brighter than that arena was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 now the arena clock not working? They are gonna have to have a guy sitting at ice level going, "1 alligator... 2 alligator.... 3 alligator..." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yea, sure, but NOW you are no longer just a regular, but a COMMUNITY regular. There is a decrease in pay but better parking space... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 (edited) Crowd at Wells Fargo seems awfully quiet since the arena dimmed. Especially since their team is leading. My guess is, they are too busy safeguarding their wallets purses and other valuables Edited February 28 by TropicalFruitGirl26 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
