That would be nice, right? - Author: Anne Boyd - Tags: From The Branches, #chorus, #Import 2023-04-05 11:27 After their double-OT win on Saturday—yet another opportunity for me to swear at Corey Perry—the Dallas Stars will yet again try to hold off elimination in tonight’s Game 6\. The Lightning confirmed yesterday that Steven Stamkos won’t return to the series, which isn’t exactly a surprise. Good luck to the Bolts for several reasons, not the least of which is my desire for the season to end so the offseason (the weird, weird, autumnal offseason) can begin. I want trades! Signings! The opportunity to publicly mock the ill-conceived roster moves of our enemies! At the very least, I would like this particular game to avoid multiple overtimes, because covid-19 has fucked up my sleep schedule quite enough, thank you. #### Today’s Game Tampa Bay Lightning at Dallas Stars, Game 6 (Tampa Bay leads 3-2) 8pm ET | NBC, CBC, TVAS, SN #### ICYMI [Back to Excited Episode 119 - Cup Finals and Pietrangelo - Pension Plan Puppets](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/toronto-maple-leafs-podcast-back-to-excited-alex-pietrangelo/) We break it down from every angle #### Stuff We Didn’t Write [Injured Steven Stamkos won’t be back in the Stanley Cup final — after one shining goal | The Star](https://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey/2020/09/27/injured-steven-stamkos-wont-be-back-in-the-stanley-cup-final-after-one-shining-goal.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The Lightning are up three games to two on the Dallas Stars in part because of Stamkos’s comeback efforts in Game 3 — his first appearance since core ...
