Kucherov and Hedman celebrate [DIRK SHADD | Tampa Bay Times]
Hurricanes defenseman Dougie Hamilton made a comment about the Lightning that has touched a nerve.
“We had a great season. We lost to a team that’s $18 million over the cap, or whatever they are,” Hamilton referenced Tampa’s bloated salary cap. “I don’t have a problem with it. You just realize how good that team was.”
This set off a bit of a firestorm with the Lightning starting with Nikita Kucherov yesterday.
Nikita Kucherov fires back, “I didn’t make the rules”
“I didn’t make the rules with the cap” he said.
