		<description><![CDATA[The Bolts have been the cellar dwellers of Tampa Bay for over a year now and things weren&#8217;t looking too good going forward. Starting the month of December the Lightning were 4-10-7 and things were looking as ugly as ever throughout the organization. The USF Bulls were 7-5 and were possibly the most disappointing team in Tampa as much bigger things were expected for them. The Bucs were 9-3 and seemingly on their way to a division title, much less a playoff birth. Fast forward to today and the Bulls capped off the month with a 41-14 win over Memphis in the St. Pete Bowl to help take the sting out of a hugely disappointing season. The Bucs pulled the ultimate choke job by going 0-4 and missing the playoffs after losing to a dismal Oakland Raider team. The Bolts have gone 4-6-2 to this point, not great I know, but after stringing off three straight wins, look much better than they did a month ago. Now don&#8217;t get me wrong, the Lightning still are holding the crown of worst in Tampa, but after a home and away sweep of Florida and a 2-0 shutout win on the road against a very good Pittsburg Penguin team, there [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m glad the Bolts didn&#8217;t tease us too much by winning again. I was wondering how they would follow up that win in Montreal and they took all the drama out of it real quick. They came out flat and never got anything going in their 2-0 shutout loss in Ottawa. I guess Vinny and Marty needed a break after scoring and the rest of the team must have stayed in Montreal celebrating their last win. Mike Smith played very well, stopping 31 of 32 shots on goal, but didn&#8217;t got nooffensive help throughout the game. He can&#8217;t do it alone and that&#8217;s the position got put into on Saturday night. The next game is Thursday night at home against Colorado. What&#8217;s the deal with the weirdo schedule in the NHL by the way. Five days off between games? The NHL is running itself into the ground with all this strange crap that they do and it&#8217;s sad to see such a great sport being mismanaged in this way. I&#8217;m going to try to make it to the game Thursday and get a feel from some of the fans to see how they view this franchise right now. I know I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Bolts must have taken all the Barry Melrose crap to heart as they finally decided to play some Hockey tonight. They came out fired up on the road and scored twice in the first period behind goals from Marty and Vinny to take a 2-1 lead. That&#8217;s all Olaf Kolzig needed tonight as he looked very good stopping 31 of 32 shots against a good Canadiens team. These are the types of performances we hoped to get from the veteran goalie when he signed and he delivered tonight. Marty added a second goal in the second period to put the Bolts up 3-1 and that&#8217;s how it would end. At this point we&#8217;re all just looking for anything positive from this team and they gave us something to grab onto, even if it&#8217;s just for a minute. I would still like to see the defense give up less shots and the offense shoot more, I know I&#8217;ve said it before, but I&#8217;ll take any win we can get right now. Winning 3-1 while getting outshot 32 to 22 is good enough, but it&#8217;s not gonna get you very far. Maybe Marty and Vinny can start putting the offense together [...]]]></description>
