Lars Eller Has Been In The Penalty Box So Much He May Need A Local Real Estate Agent

May 19th, 2018
The Lightning power play is not automatic, but what they are currently doing is reaching historic levels in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. While the explosion of Steven Stamkos the last five games is fantastic, these power play goals need one key ingredient on a regular basis. And that’s where Lars Eller comes into this conversation.
.
In this edition of the podcast, Todd Wright discusses Eller’s role in the series and also how Ondrej Palat’s pass on the game-winning goal was almost ironic, because it seems like that is all Palat is trying to do since Jon Cooper assigned him to skate with the top line to start Game Three.
