Jon Cooper Absolutely Roasts the Maple Leafs
The Tampa Bay Lightning made it to their third consecutive Stanley Cup final last season.
In the process, they crushed the second round dreams of the Toronto Maple Leafs, with a Game 7 win.
The two teams are matching up tonight, and before the game, head coach Jon Cooper was asked about a particular player.
Nick Paul, who signed a seven-year extension with the team is a piece of Tampa's core moving forward.
Here were Cooper's comments on what Nick Paul had given him and the team so far:
This of course refers to Paul's performance in game 7 against the Maple Leafs. He singlehandedly kept the Leafs out of the second round.
Can Paul help bring another Stanley Cup to Tampa Bay?
