Jon Cooper reveals why his team lost games 1 and 2 in Colorado

According to the head coach of the Tampa Bay Lightning, his team lost games number 1 and number 2 because of the altitude in Colorado.

The arena is elevated and the lack of oxygen, according to Cooper, was a factor in both of the club's losses.

So, another loss tonight to give the Stanley Cup to the Avalanche?

Pretty special excuse...
