Lightning GM BriseBois not overreacting to playoff loss | |
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Tampa Bay general manager Julien BriseBois said Thursday he is not going to overreact to the Lightning's historically quick postseason exit and he still has confidence in coach Jon Cooper. After tying the NHL record for wins during the regular season, the perennial Stanley Cup contender became the first team in the expansion era to be swept in the first round of the playoffs after leading the league in points. Three of the four games against Columbus were decided by at least two goals. "What really compounds the disappointment is that we didn't play anywhere near our best hockey during the series. And now, the question is why? Why didn't we play our best when it mattered the most," BriseBois said. MORE | |
