It may seem like a never-ending journey that has been sent from the depths of hell with the sole intent of torturing hockey fans around the world, but unbeknownst to popular belief the off-season is almost over and our favorite players are about to hit the ice once again.
Those of us here in the Bolts Nation received a little bit of help in the off-season torture department. Our off-season was significantly shorter than some of the teams in the National Hockey League thanks to the Tampa Bay Lightning’s outstanding run towards the Stanley Cup Finals.
As things begin to wind down and the Lightning prepares to regroup and take another shot at hoisting Lord Stanley’s Cup high above their heads, we here at Bolts By The Bay thought it would be fun to take a look at what some of our favorite players are up to, how they have kept themselves busy during the off-season, and what they are doing to prepare for the new season.
