April 23rd, 2018

When Barkley’s Gone, Then What?

April 23rd, 2018

BY IRA KAUFMAN

If you’re looking for a 7-round mock draft, you’ve come to the wrong place.

That’s a foolish exercise, primarily because you have no idea who is still going to be on the board. Alright, I admit it — I haven’t watched much film of the left guard at Colorado State or the punter at Northwestern. [read more]

Big Win/Lousy Performance, Sergachev & Other Standouts, A Look At Boston, And More; It’s The Todd Wright Lightning Playoff Podcast

April 23rd, 2018

Todd is pleased the Lightning moved on but blasts them for a lousy performance in Game Five. The Devils were done and didn’t want to make the trip to Tampa, but the Lightning let them hang around all afternoon. Games like that get you beat in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and the Lightning got away with one against probably the 16th best team of the 16 teams that made the postseason.

A few guys showed up to play for Tampa Bay, including Mikhail Sergachev, and Todd dives into those positives and much more.

Todd Wright isn’t just the fantasy football podcast guru and golf chief around here. The longtime national and local sports radio personality has loads of knowledge about the Tampa Bay Lightning. So launching the Todd Wright Lightning Playoff Podcast was a no-brainer.

The podcast will run through the Bolts’ exciting playoff run right here. Todd has media credentials for home games and will provide plenty of fresh insight.

(Also, the JoeBoltsFan podcast with Tom Lang has been a big hit every Friday.)
