Pinterest Shows us Downie as he Helps Avs to Win

Saturday night was a night to remember for Avs' forward Steve Downie. After 9:13 in the first period, Downie broke through Red Wings' goaltender Jimmy Howard for the eventual game winner in a 4-3 Avs victory over Detroit. Downie also had assists on both of rookie forward's Gabriel Landeskog's goals.




Since being traded to the Avs from the Lightning, Steve Downie has 2 goals and 3 assists with his new club. After an emotional departure, Downie has settled in rather well.

Via Bolts by the Bay: Stamkos: 30, 40… 51?

This year Steven Stamkos has shown his skills yet again. For the third consecutive season, Stamkos has surpassed the 40 goal mark. In fact, his goals total for the last three seasons is 136 goals, easily placing him ahead of everyone else in terms of goals scored since the beginning of the ’09-’10 season. Stamkos has been a great leader on the ice as well, beginning with the most obvious form of recognition: an ‘A’ on his jersey. Stammer has shown to everyone why he is the Assistant captain on the team at only 22 years of age. With so many goals scored against, it’s very hard to keep a great plus minus on this Lightning team. However, Stamkos is tied at second on the team with a plus-6 rating (tied with Bergeron, two behind Purcell). Stamkos’ fabulous offensive play has been complimented by improving defensive play from the center. Critics have always questioned Steven’s ability to play defense, but he has responded by steadily improving his defensive play throughout the season... more.

Via Bolts by the Bay: Nabby Off the Market, Lightning Move on to Buffalo

The Tampa Bay Lightning played against the New York Rangers Thursday night, and my was it a thriller. Stamkos scored his league leading 35th goal on a breakaway, Captain Vinny scored a grind-it-out goal, and Garon looked focused in net. As dominant as the Rangers have been this season, I was extremely impressed with the effort put forth by the team as a whole during the game against the Blue Shirts. Of course, the team did end up blowing a third period lead and losing in overtime, but that’s not the encouraging part. For the first time in a while, the Lightning didn’t loose the game; they were simply beaten, fair and square. Top teams find ways to beat teams, and last night’s win for the Rangers was an example of that... more.
