The best thing about having a team-issued credential to cover the Lightning is that I'm a Lightning fan, and I like to believe that being a credentialed member of the media allows me to be an ambassador on behalf of fellow fans who will never get to experience the game of hockey that way. Through this weekly column, I'll be sharing peeks behind the magical media curtain with you. Today, we're going to talk about you, the vocal majority.
I know what you expect from us humble scribes dedicated to a life in service to you, the loyal fans: laser-like focus directed entirely at the action taking place on the ice so that we can provide the absolute best coverage of the Tampa Bay Lightning possible.
