Tough Luck Season: Tampa Bay

[PsychoticPondGoons]

This has to be the worst luck I've seen in a while in FNHL.

Daddy's Bolts trade for a franchise player Steven Stamkos to get the season rolling.
He's got the horses to get to the front of the pack in 2016-17 and he's on cruise control early and fast!

Then Tampa Bay decides they're not a hockey team but a hospital. LOL

Steven Stamkos, $6.3m (2016-2021-FP-8.4 )
Blown knee out 3 months

Ben Bishop, $8.4m (2016-2021-FP-11.1 )
The other Franchise Player, LBI out 1-2 months

Justin Abdelkader, $3.9m (2016-2019)
Knee, out 2 months

Justin Faulk, $6.8m (2016-2020)
LBI out 1/2 month

Reilly Smith, $2.6m (2015-2018)
Another big trade addition Out with Concussion 1 month

That's like someone ripping the spine out of the Bolts.
But the team is still TOP 10!

The injury bug is the Great Unknown that can tank a team's season.

Carey Price was knocked out early and long in 2015-16... tanked our season. Hoping to make up for lost time in 2016-17.

Yeah it's been like an old episode of mash.
No whining about it though. Injuries are part of the game.
Makes it an even bigger challenge to remain playoff relevant.

Let's get it

Indeed. Well stated sir.

But the team is still TOP 10!

Dropping faster than a strippers bikini top in the face of $100 bill.

Dropping like a LA Rams receiver wide open in the red zone.

Dropping like bird poop on your freshly washed automobile.

Dropping like Papps after a 25 second jog up his driveway.

This ship is sinking. Best to drink away our misfortune

there's another 1/2 season and 44 games left to go. Ain't over til she's over.

Never feel bad for Daddy's Bolts.

Hey, my cats lost O'Reilly a key star and we have been dealing with our fair share of injuries. All part of sports, fantasy or real life.

Rub some dirt on it and lace them skates up lol
