Steven Stamkos did everything he possibly could to get back in the Tampa Bay Lightning’s lineup for the playoffs but he was only able to muster 2:47 seconds of ice time in Game 3. But even though he had to watch from the press box, that doesn’t mean he was any less nervous watching the whole series unfold!!!!
After hoisting the Stanley Cup for the first time, the Bolts captain explained what it was like to watch Game 6 instead of play and honestly, it sounded pretty terrible. Forget eating… or sleeping… there was a Stanley Cup to win!!!!
Skip to 5:50:
Stammer is just the biggest beauty. You know how much not being on the ice with his teammates must have eaten away at him, yet he was still in it as much as everyone else. We’re just glad the guy got to at least suit up for a game and score a goal in the series.
We’re just glad to see Stammer finally get his Cup. In 57 regular season games, the 30-year-old recorded 29 goals and 37 assists.
