The eerie sound you heard (or didn’t hear) last night was the silence which ensued after a devastatingly scary moment which went down on Sunday night at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. The entire Bolts Nation held their breath as Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Dan Girardi made a block with his head instead of his stick.
It was late in the second period, the Tampa Bay Lightning held a 2-1 lead over the Detroit Red Wings. The play had made its way into the Lightning’s defensive zone, which meant it was time for the Bolts d-men to jump into action.
