00:00Welcome back to EA Sports, everybody.
00:13I'm James Stavalski.
00:14We've got an Atlantic Division showdown in store for you tonight.
00:22Both teams look ready to go, and it's time to drop the puck.
00:30The Bulls win the opening face-off, and we are underway with this one.
00:36Along the half-wall with the puck.
00:38Fires it!
00:40Puck picked up by Hedman.
00:42Too much traffic in the lane.
00:45And he takes the feed.
00:47Tampa Bay's got the puck.
00:49And he avoids the poke check with some great edge work.
00:53Takes a shot with the stop.
00:56St. Petersburg's got the puck in their own end.
01:00The Bulls have it behind the cage.
01:06Passed up ahead.
01:07That's how you get north in a hurry.
01:09Fantastic stretch pass.
01:11Avoids the defender.
01:13Puck grabbed by Fabry.
01:15Here's a chance on the attack.
01:19Moussa quickly over to Struble.
01:22And now Moussa!
01:24Takes the feed at the puck.
01:26Vasilevskiy's opted to hang on to the puck for a face-off.
01:30Sorelli's been struggling to find offense, and you can certainly feel it in his play.
01:35You know, just look at his habits.
01:36He's holding on to the puck a little too long, not taking the shot when he has it.
01:39You can sense the frustration during this pointless streak.
01:43Tries to get it over to Bugstad.
01:45St. Petersburg's three-game possession of the puck.
01:52Moves it to Barron.
01:55Moves the puck down low.
01:58Grabbed along the board by Kapanen.
02:01Shakes himself free.
02:03Just fine.
02:05Pogles got a hole in the puck behind the net.
02:08Moves it over to Sorelli.
02:11Shakes off the coverage.
02:12Puts it on the net.
02:14Gives them nothing in front.
02:17And will get the whistle after the goaltender hangs off.
02:22We're still in the early stages of this period.
02:25Still looking for our first goal.
02:28Tampa Bay's got it in the offensive zone.
02:31No room for that one to get through.
02:34Let's it go.
02:35Blocked it.
02:36Goal!
02:37And look at that.
02:39They are quickly on the board.
02:41And the crowd is going.
02:42What happened?
02:43Well, if only it started that way all the time.
02:46Exactly the way the coach would have drawn it up.
02:48But you certainly want to dictate pace when you are on the road.
02:51And you want to take the crowd out of it early.
02:54Well, he's right in the slot.
02:55That prime scoring area.
02:56And he corrals it on his backhand.
02:58That's a great play to get it off quickly.
03:00Tampa Bay's come to play tonight.
03:09They've been very aggressive to start.
03:11And as a result, Cheryl, they got the lead.
03:13Typically, the home team has the advantage, James.
03:15So when the away team comes into the barn,
03:17they want to make sure that they're not flat-footed,
03:19that they're urgent, they're aggressive.
03:20And to start this period, to start the game,
03:22they've been ready right from the off.
03:24And they're rewarded with a goal.
03:26Knocked away with the stick by Lazard.
03:27Slides it to Obey Pavel.
03:34Takes it deep inside the offensive zone.
03:37And he takes the pass.
03:40Kalach got it along the way.
03:42Here's a pass in front.
03:44And that's stuck.
03:46The Bears have it against the wall.
03:48Slides it across.
03:51From the point, looks to make something happen.
03:54Kalach got the puck from the backhand.
03:57Coach is just loving these types of shifts.
03:59A lot of pressure and effort in this one.
04:02And look at this.
04:03They really ratcheted up the intensity here.
04:06Puck picked up.
04:08Presses to D'Angelo.
04:10Oh, nice save right there.
04:12And it's picked up by the defense.
04:14And they finally clear the zone.
04:16And here they go the other way.
04:18Three, two, three.
04:22And the puck is frozen.
04:25We'll get a stoppage in play here.
04:30Vazileski's found his rhythm here as we look at that last save.
04:33I mean, he has to be so on the mark right now.
04:36Too positioned to be able to make it.
04:38His read is perfect.
04:39He's tracking well.
04:40We have to be quick and athletic to make that one.
04:42Nearing the midway mark of the period.
04:501-0 is where we sit at this point.
04:54Glenn Denning's won the draw here in the offensive zone.
04:58Loose puck and they're off to the races.
05:00The Lightning have taken possession along the wall.
05:05Quick pass to Draft.
05:07And that's a great heads-up play by Glenn Denning.
05:11The Bulls take possession in the defensive end.
05:16St. Petersburg's got the puck along the Bulls.
05:21Takes the feed.
05:23Here's a chance.
05:25Gets a piece of it to keep it out.
05:27Slides a diagonal leap to Holmberg.
05:31And now it's grabbed by Paul.
05:34Broken up with the stick in the defensive end.
05:37Picked up along the wall by Pahal.
05:40And that play's broken up.
05:42Quick pass across to Gore.
05:44Loses the coverage there.
05:49Grabs control of it at the point.
05:52Quick feed to Kapanen.
05:53Handles the puck.
05:58Here's a short pass to Pahal.
06:01From the blue line.
06:02They take control of it.
06:04Cartier's got the puck near the back end.
06:08Gets a matchup with that hit.
06:10And there's a club save on the play.
06:16Wow, James.
06:17I mean, not everyone can elicit a thunderous hit like that.
06:20I mean, he just clobbered his opponent.
06:25St. Petersburg's had plenty of good looks here so far in the first, but they still tread.
06:34And they win the offensive zone faceoff.
06:36And here we go.
06:38Shakes off to the defender with some nifty boos.
06:42Pusses it over.
06:43Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
06:50Blows one.
06:51Oh, that has some heat on it.
06:53He makes the save.
06:55Pusses that over to Kutcherath.
06:58The pair is getting control of him.
07:01Kapanen's got it in the offensive zone.
07:05Slides it back to the blue line.
07:08Blows across the floor.
07:11Chuck just gets enough to keep it out.
07:17Dumps it in.
07:17St. Petersburg's got it from behind the net.
07:22Moves it quickly over to Barron.
07:26To the middle.
07:28And he shuts down a great scoring chance there.
07:31Huge steal on his own end.
07:36Kampabe's got the puck inside the defensive zone.
07:41Taking the ball.
07:42Oh, what a hit on the play.
07:43He's on his own bench this year.
07:45Well, the only good thing is he's not on the opponent's bench, right?
07:48He'd be getting a face wash if he was over there.
07:50But instead, he's on his teammate's bench.
07:52And you know what?
07:52They're going to pick him up.
07:54Well, I love this hit here, James, trailing in the game.
07:56Because it provides energy.
07:57It provides a spark.
07:59But he's trying to elicit response from the rest of his team.
08:02Because if all of a sudden they come out there and shift after shift,
08:05they start to impose their physical will,
08:07they're going to create momentum.
08:08And momentum can carry them back into this game.
08:11The Ports win the draw.
08:13With the team, they score!
08:16And that's back-to-back goals!
08:19Well, nothing like switching momentum and putting your opponent on their heels
08:23than getting two in a row back-to-back.
08:25Here they come.
08:27On a deflected shot, everyone always talks about the stick positioning.
08:30How about the timing to get to the slot area as well?
08:33And the ability to just tap it down and redirect it.
08:42The Lightning have doubled up their lead up by a pair now here in period number one.
08:46Well, they got the start that they wanted.
08:47And they've been like a wave of energy.
08:49They've gotten all their lines into the game.
08:51And I feel like they're contributing, not all of them on the scoreboard,
08:54but in different ways.
08:55If they can complete this period with that two-goal lead,
08:58it's going to be a success one that they can drive off of into the second.
09:03St. Petersburg's looking to even things up here in period number one
09:29as they still trail despite out-shooting the opposition.
09:33Stenland's got it, and they'll go on the attack here in the offensive zone.
09:37Moussa to Strudel.
09:40Takes the feed.
09:41Oh, gets a little piece of it!
09:44And keeps it out of the net!
09:46A chance!
09:47Stoog!
09:48Sad look at this!
09:50Here we go!
09:51The fans are back!
09:52Well, they've responded exactly the way the coach and team wanted.
09:56To be able to get back on the floor, get momentum back in their favor.
10:00It's key guys that contribute and have an impact.
10:03When we have a look at it, James, it looks like it's redirected.
10:07And that's just beautiful timing.
10:09And get the hands away from the body,
10:11be able to get it to go the opposite direction of the goaltender.
10:14Here in the late goings of the period,
10:23the Bears have answered back in these last few minutes,
10:26but still need one more to even the score.
10:29Kick pass to Bugstad.
10:32He's in the middle!
10:33Oh, he comes up with a stop!
10:36Oh, what a save as he denies them again!
10:41And there's the whistle, icing the call.
10:44Oh, he's in the middle, 15 minutes, 1 second.
10:46Well, the bench erupts with that one.
10:48And you know why, James?
10:49Because he is telling his team,
10:51listen, I've bent, but I have not broken,
10:53and neither have you.
10:54So let's get going here.
10:55Let's find a way to get back in this one and tie it up.
11:11St. Petersburg's down, but not out.
11:13If they've had chances, they just haven't capitalized.
11:21Borg's won the faceoff,
11:23and now let's see what they can do.
11:24Center rings that one clean.
11:26Everyone's ready for the puck.
11:27They know they're attacking now
11:29with a tired beat that they're playing against.
11:33Slides the puck across to the hall.
11:36Pass it through!
11:37And that goes off a stick.
11:40Quick feed to Borg.
11:42Looks to get the puck over to Paul.
11:46Chorison Priest!
11:48Oh, what a save as he gets that one, too!
11:51I'm not sure where the defense is,
11:52but I'll tell you what,
11:53the goaltender has been outstanding,
11:55made a flurry of saves to keep his team in this one.
11:57Both teams are set.
11:59They're ready to drop the puck.
12:03The Bulls take possession off the faceoff.
12:06St. Petersburg's looking to break out of their own end.
12:09Here's a short pass to Henry,
12:11and he sacrifices his body to block the shot.
12:16Now a quick pass to Barron.
12:19Plays the puck up ahead.
12:20Sends a pass over.
12:24Oh, what a save in front!
12:26Oh, here we are.
12:27St. Petersburg!
12:30Ryan, can you worry about what happened in the game, James?
12:32It's all about what you do now.
12:34Seeing in the present,
12:35that's exactly what they've done,
12:36and they've got the Equalizer.
12:38When you're behind in a game, James,
12:40sometimes you can get frustrated, rattled,
12:43and you can start to really see the body language go down,
12:46but they have stuck with it.
12:47They've clawed their way back,
12:48and they're in the game now.
12:49The Bears answer back in timely fashion here, Cheryl.
13:04Yeah, they give up a goal early in the opening frame,
13:07not the way they would have wanted to start it,
13:08but if they can get out of this period,
13:11and the score is tied, it is a win,
13:13because when you're looking at the barrel of a team
13:15that was all over you,
13:16you'll take it, put them into the intermission.
13:18Looks to make a play over to Tucker,
13:21and now he moves it to Grendel.
13:25Shot, and he makes the save.
13:27Whether you're a player or a goaltender,
13:28so much of the training is about reaction,
13:31and you can certainly tell that it has come in handy for him,
13:34because he makes an incredible save
13:36just by seeing Stinks alone.
13:38Hipped off at the offensive end.
13:41Denies him in close.
13:42Well, a great a-scoring chance taken away from the inner slot
13:46because he's so aggressive and gets to the top of his crease.
13:50Late goings of this period.
13:52It's all tied up.
14:00St. Petersburg's on the drive.
14:02Here's a pass.
14:04And he wins the post.
14:06That's an unlucky bounce as the shooter is driving in
14:10and just sees an opening,
14:12but unable to convert as it goes off of the pipe and out.
14:16Mosep quickly over to drop.
14:20Pup scooped up by Bugstad.
14:25Quick shot!
14:26And that concludes the first 20 minutes of play.
14:33Second period action.
14:35Stick around.
14:36And that concludes the first 20 minutes of play.
14:37And that concludes the first 20 minutes of play.
14:38Second period action.
14:39Stick around.
14:40And that is what you're interested in.
14:41You're a super big man who has one of our luxury boxes.
14:42With great views, waiter service, and free team merchandise,
14:47your time is now to reserve your seat
14:49in one of our extravagant luxury boxes.
14:53See our website for details.
14:56See our website.
15:08See our website.
20:29The teams are set. They're ready to drop the puck.
20:36The Bulls win the draw, and they go on the attack here in the offensive zone.
20:41Puck picked up by Kapanen.
20:44The Bears played along the way.
20:47Through pass ahead.
20:49Quick feed to Lozada.
20:52Oh, what a move!
20:53Here's a shot!
20:55Oh, Hardy! Keep it up!
20:57What a blocker stop by Vasilevsky!
21:01Blocked, although that might be a save!
21:03Well, that is a save, James.
21:04I don't think the goaltender would have gotten to position in time,
21:06and he's able to take it away.
21:08Bukestad's back in the play after grabbing a new stick from the bench.
21:11And, man, these things snap in half.
21:15St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall.
21:19Takes the shot!
21:20Great save by the goaltender to get a pat on that one.
21:24Keeping the puck out of the net.
21:27And they win the draw on their own end.
21:41Sends the pass over.
21:44Oh, my!
21:46And he's got the answer for that one.
21:49And he shuts the door again!
21:50It really is amazing to watch him maintain possession of this puck
21:54while his opponent is on.
21:55And, I mean, they're pushing him, they're shoving him,
21:57they're doing everything they can.
21:59But he's resilient, he's got a willingness to his game,
22:01but he's also got power.
22:03Power.
22:03You can see it in his lower half,
22:05and the balance and coordination it takes to get this puck to the net.
22:09Passes over to McDonough.
22:11Here's a short pass to Paul.
22:13Great use of the body to knock him off the puck.
22:17Stooped up along the wall by Stenland.
22:21The Bears gain possession.
22:26Tampa Bay's got control of it now from their own end.
22:29He plays the body into that play.
22:32And now he tries to get it across to Gensel.
22:35Oh!
22:36He was that one.
22:37He looks deep to track.
22:41Takes the feet at the back end.
22:43Big time stop!
22:46Dishes up to Glenn Denning.
22:53Pass back to the point.
22:56Breaks it perfectly and comes up with a takeaway.
23:00St. Petersburg's got control of the puck.
23:04And now they look to make something happen from the neutral zone.
23:07Oh, look at this!
23:11The Lightning have gained possession off the wall.
23:15Puck moved over to Gensel.
23:17Picked off by O'Brien.
23:20Looking to make something happen at center.
23:23And he slides it quickly to Bastian.
23:26And that's intercepted by Radish.
23:29Can't get a hold of that pass.
23:32Oh, we'll get some tired defenders.
23:34As icing is the call.
23:38I'll tell you what, James.
23:39That ain't incidental contact.
23:41That was intentional.
23:42Certainly trying to really drive that body and separate the player from puck.
23:45Inching closer to the midway mark of this period.
23:57We got a tie game.
24:03And they win the faceoff and set up to go on the attack.
24:08Receives the pass.
24:09And the puck leaves the zone going back to center ice.
24:19Faber, he's going to put it against the half wall.
24:26Radish has got it in the defensive end.
24:29Along the right side into the offensive zone.
24:32And the ball counter comes up with a piece of it to keep it out of the net.
24:35More than half the period has gone by.
24:42Hope you're enjoying this one.
24:44The next goal could be a big one as we are tied.
24:49St. Petersburg's got it in the defensive zone.
24:52Gets it over to Barron.
24:59Back to the point it goes.
25:01And too much traffic in front blocks that one.
25:04Good fight for the puck along the boards.
25:07Oh, love the defensive stick work there to poke that one away.
25:11St. Petersburg's got the puck in the defensive end.
25:15Great hit-stop play in the neutral zone by Dickinson.
25:19Picked up along the boards by Bergensons.
25:23Gets it to the other front.
25:25Oh, zero fear to get in front of that shot.
25:30St. Petersburg's got possession of the puck.
25:33Skrubel's got the puck in his own zone.
25:35From the defensive zone, they move the puck around.
25:41From the right wing, he moves it to the middle.
25:44Here's a shot.
25:45Oh, he gets a blocker on it.
25:47What a stop by Vasilevsky.
25:49Well, the shooter's in a coveted spot on the ice.
25:51Right in the middle of it with a good look.
25:53And he makes an incredible save by getting square to the puck
25:55and turning it aside.
25:58Back to the point.
25:59He's set it up.
26:00And he gets on.
26:01What, as it was teed up with the slapper?
26:03But he turns it aside.
26:07Here's a pass down low.
26:12Hand goes in along the blue line.
26:14Moose it quickly over to Carrick.
26:18Goes to puck.
26:20Can't stay on a speed after that hit.
26:25Moose it to D'Angelo.
26:27Puck grabbed by Hedman.
26:30Tampa Bay's got him along the wall.
26:31Oh, fuck.
26:34Quick pass to D'Angelo.
26:37Stones him on the play.
26:39Brings the puck into the offensive end now.
26:42Here's a shot.
26:43Big stop right there.
26:46He not only wins his foot race,
26:47but he also wins the strength battle on the puck here, James.
26:50The way he shields, he just powers it right to the net.
26:53And that's blocked in traffic.
26:54Quick feed to Lozad.
26:58Trying to shake the defender.
26:59He's in the clear.
27:02Oh, to Ryzen on the play.
27:04And this is a great play by the tender to anticipate and get across to make that save.
27:10That goes off the mask.
27:13Radish has got it in the defensive zone.
27:16St. Petersburg's got possession at center.
27:19Quick feed down low.
27:20Takes that pass back to the point.
27:25Dishes it off.
27:27Takes the pass.
27:30Quick shot.
27:32And that's off target as it hits a body.
27:35And he totally whips on that one.
27:37Just a little too much contact and couldn't hang on to the puck.
27:41Just slide.
27:43Dragged along the boards by Gensel.
27:46Just the puck away.
27:48And now it's grabbed by Draft.
27:52Here's a chance.
27:53Stones up with the blocker.
27:56Handles the pass.
27:58Taken by Hornberg.
28:01And he sidesteps the kick there.
28:02To his teammate.
28:05Can't connect as it goes off a stick.
28:07Picked up along the wall by Draft.
28:10Now he slides it up to Percier.
28:13Oh, makes a save.
28:16Just better not to keep it out.
28:18Denies him again.

28:38Outstanding performance by him on that last one.
28:47Face-off coming up here in the offensive zone.
28:49Well, they'll want to continue with the sustained pressure because the goal to end up.
28:53He is fatigued.
28:54St. Petersburg's won the draw inside the off-cuts themselves.
29:00Now let's see what they can do with it.
29:02The ball scooping up along the boards.
29:05And this is over to Gore.

29:11Takes the shot.
29:12And makes the save.
29:13Marazic's been dialed in right from puck drop, James.
29:17I mean, he's made the key saves that he's need to make.
29:19And it's all about for a tender managing the momentum swings of the game.
29:22And the timeliness of the saves have really given his team an opportunity.
29:26There's the whistle.
29:27We got an offside.
29:31Center's glide into the dot as the face-off ready to resume play.
29:34There's the buzzer.

36:46he loses control. St. Petersburg's on the attack. The Bolts move the puck in the defensive
36:53zone. There's the whistle as the play was offside.
36:59Pateleski's last save was outstanding. He knew exactly where that puck was going to
37:02go. That's anticipation at its finest to be able to get to the right spot, know where
37:06that puck is coming from, and make a high-grade A save.
37:16More than half the period left to play. We are all tied up in this one.

37:43club save on the play. Mouracic's going to hang on for a whistle.
37:49Any coach or player will tell you that you just need your goaltender to make a big save at
37:54the right time. It's not always about the quantity, but it is the quality. Kind of reset the temperature
38:00in the game. And I think he's doing a fantastic job of anticipating cutting down his angles
