Episode Details

This episode of the Bolts Breakdown Podcast talks about the Tampa Bay Lightning & their physical, in-your-face identity. Boomer & Tommy discuss if fighting 56 times in a season is a good idea, if it’s necessary, if it’s overkill, and much more.

Then, they discuss the best five fights from the season, each giving their rankings & discussing their decision.

Finally, the episode ends with a drawing from the ThunderBucket. This week’s prompt was this: If you could have two Lightning players switch bodies (freaky-friday style), which two would you switch?

Bolts Breakdown exists for Tampa Bay Lightning fans—to help them know the team & enjoy it more.
