Where do the problems begin with this once Juggernaut Tampa Bay Lightning team?
Dave Mishkin – The interesting part about the last few weeks is that the record somewhat belies how the guys are playing. Lightning coaches have commented that the players are starting to learn the team concept and are improving in certain areas that needed work. For instance, the Lightning has cut down on scoring chances against in recent games and that was a big problem earlier in the year. Still, the Bolts hadn’t been able to translate better play into victories, at least until last night’s win in Montreal. Neil Bristow – If the season keeps going the way it’s going for Tampa Bay, Do you see them asking Marty St.Louis to waive his no trade clause and move him and get some younger kids and go at it again next season? Dave Mishkin – I don’t see that happening. Marty, along with Vinny Lecavalier, is one of the faces of the franchise, and the organization recognizes that. Furthermore, he is a very productive player — with two goals last night, he now has points in 10 of his last 11 game
