    Still Love Watching Kuch and Vasy

    Have been a Bolts fan for many years. Anytime Kuch gets the puck you know something good can happen. Love watching Vasyl make some insane saves along the goal line. Just took my father to a game the other night. We were talking hockey the whole ride home. Always great to be able to do that with your family.

    Can We Please Stop Taking Dumb Penalties?

    I enjoy watching the Bolts but there are times i hate watching them play. We will be doing well and then take a dumb penalty. Spend another 2 minutes on the PK. I've been a fan since the St. Pete Times forum. I'm sure I'll continue to support this team; they just gotta learn how to play better. Lol
