Morning After Thoughts: Lightning behind the 8-ball in Game Two and the Series

Morning After Thoughts will be an ongoing series throughout the playoffs where I can ramble on about the most recent Lightning playoff game. Sometimes it will be structured. Sometimes it will just be a stream of consciousness. Hopefully, I’ll be able to capture what many Lightning fans are thinking, but also provide some perspective after having time to adjust back to normal after a game, take a breath, and take a deeper look at the numbers.

The Lightning fell 3-2 in overtime to the Florida Panthers in Game Two of the series. The Lightning have had a pretty abysmal record in playoff overtime games the last couple of playoffs and it continued here.
