The officials have managed to get the fans back into this game. Honestly, they weren't much of a factor leading up to this point. And looking at the Lightning's mostly sluggish play through two, you've got to wonder how Tampa Bay is tied after two periods.

But after the officials called penalties on both St. Louis and Lecavalier -- the latter or which was questionable -- the fans were chanting words not fit for blogging consumption.

The Lightning survived the 5-on-3 and the fans have something to cheer about -- or cheer against.
