Tampa Bay Lightning C Steven Stamkos gets huge monkey of his back

The Tampa Bay Lightning may have started out their series against the Boston Bruins on the wrong foot, but they have definitely found a way to get back on the right track and start winning games. Despite the elation here in the Bolts Nation, one member of the Bolts has had a huge monkey on his back lately.

As one could easily imagine, we are talking about Tampa Bay Lightning captain Steven Stamkos. Coming into Wednesday night’s game, the captain hadn’t scored a single goal in four games and hadn’t picked up so much as an assist in the last two.
