Bolts    1

Stars   3

Much to the dismay of all the BRHL the Dallas Stars have taken complete control of this series and lead 3-0 with Game 4 at home. In a surprising couple of moves GM Ferr rolled the dice sitting all-star A. Lee and going with M.Smith in goal despite both being ready to play (although not 100%) in the most pivitol game of the year. Tampa has been in trouble basically all play-offs but this level of depth is a new 1 even for the Bolts and is in all liklihood too steep a hill to climb. Much has been made of Junya taking over a top 4 team (which he did despite his denials) but Junya has continued to rebuild and retool his roster remaining relevant ever since. This has pissed the rest of the league off as there is clearly nobody more irritating in the league to have to listen to (Anthony is contending). Jared took a stacked team from Luke, Steph took over for Kirk, Joe took Richs Isles, and Junya took the Stars but with Junya already making a finals and now on the cusp of a cup win you have to at least acknowledge his success despite the fact things always work out at easy as possible for him to do well (8 tankers in west). This series is by no means over and it is expected that Tampa will ice their full team and battle to the very end as they have gone 4-0 to close out an earlier series. They will have to do that again of this season is over!
