that could be why it blows your mind.
its also annoying how the commentators dickride them. they are a good team. but jesus. you'd think they were married to the redwings.

how the hell was Guy Boucher NOT nominated for Coach of the Year? whether he would have won is moot, but you can't deny what he's done with the Lightning in his first season is nothing short of recognizable.
Vigneault? fine. Trotz? fine. Bylsma? really? why? because Crosby and Malkin were out? big fucking deal.

more than what they were? 46-25-11. 103 points on the season. 23 points better than last season. that's recognition worthy.
the Penguins are a good team and everybody knows that. just because Malkin and Crosby missed some time doesn't make Bylsma a brilliant coach
Just like the Yankee's and Lakers in other sports, The Wings get allot of attention thus being the most popular road team to watch. Making the playoff the last 23 seasons and via the Cup gets you some spotlight, allot of the time.
Crosby get the same thing in the player area like Ovechkin, you would think there isnt other players in the league!
I wish we were under the radar less though.
GO RED WINGS!
You're such a homer it's laughable. The Lightning are stacked. Take Stamkos and St Louis off that team, make the playoffs and then maybe Boucher deserves recognition. And those guys dont even make close to the impact Crosby and Malkin have. Boucher took an under achieving team and brought them to a middle of the pack playoff team. Balysma lost two of the best players in the world and got his team into the playoffs with home ice advantage. Everybody on that team deserves every bit of recognition they get.
Also, you were just talking about how proud you are for the Lightning showing resiliency overcoming the 3-1 deficit against a good Pens team and you don't think Balysma deserves any credit for it? So it's no big deal they lost Crosby and Malkin, but it's a big deal the Lightning beat them? C'mon man. Aha, it's hard to take you Lightning fans seriously sometimes. You're so biased it's insane.
Yes injuries are just part of the game and the Pen's are still pretty deep. Coaching is the X factor and Bylsma could have done better.
Done better????? How can you say this? They were 1 point away from 1st overall. Crosby, the best player in the game missed half the season. Malkin missed the entire season. Are you guys taking crazy pills. Please, take the two best players off every playoff team and tell me how they'd do.
I'm not saying Balysma deserves to win, but to think Boucher deserves more recognition for doing less with more talent in an easier division is fucking crazy.
I'm glad somebody here isn't popping LSD.
and yet, Rick Tocchet and Barry Melrose couldn't get the Lightning to win. Guy Boucher deserves recognition for his work. and to say St. Louis and Stamkos don't even come close to having the impact that Crosby and Malkin have is absolutely the dumbest thing i've seen all day. over the past 3 years, Stamkos has more goals than Crosby. and St. Louis only averages .2 points per game fewer than him and way more than Malkin
look at Bruce Boudreau. he came in, got the Capitals winning and won the Jack Adams. Guy Boucher does the exact same thing and doesn't even get nominated. THAT is my point.
and i just said the Penguins are a good team, so yes, it was an accomplishment to beat them in the playoffs. they have more playoff experience and they did have home ice. and Malkin and Crosby weren't gone all year so your point is invalid.
We lost Datsyuk last year for most of the playoffs last year and Zetterberg this year so far.
Great teams find a way! Crosby being the best player is subjective. The Pens should back in the mix deep next year.
lose datsyuk and zetterberg for majority of a season and playoffs. then maybe you could compare the lose of malkin and crosby.
but at the same time if crosby was on detroit. all centers would be bumped down a line and malkin for that matter. they both produce more then zetterberg or datsyuk im pretty sure.
so you cant really compare the lose.

Don't look now, your bias is showing. You're really saying Stamkos/St Louis = Crosby/Malkin? O.K. They didn't miss 4-5 games man. It was something like 80. 80. 80 games. They're two best players. That's no big deal to you? Ahaha. If you lost Stamkos and St Louis for over half a season you'd be crying bloody murder. This entire thread is dedicated to your blatant homerism. Remember gods gift to goaltending, Mike Smith?? Lol. You refuse to be impartial regarding anything other than the Lightning. Take off your silver coloured shades man.
IF Boucher did deserve a nomination, it would be over Vigneault...not Balysma.
