Hey, I just wanted to wish to my follow bloggers and readers in the From The Rink forum a happy thanksgiving!

Also, the Lightning showed a bit more toughness agains the Rangers but still ended up losing in a shoot out. Heck, even Steven Stamkos got into a fight. There was definitely a titanic bout between Koci and the Rangers Orr. In the end, it was the Lightning's big bugaboo - the shootout that did them in.

I just don't understand how a team (the Lightning) with so much firepower cannot find the back of the net.

In any event, have a great holiday everyone!
