The day after

Lightning coach John Tortorella didn't have much to say Thursday morning, hours after he went on an expletive-laced tirade in the Lightning dressing room following Tampa Bay's 4-3 overtime loss in Buffalo.

“I’m going to keep my comments in the room,” Tortorella told reporters after the team held a team meeting Thursday morning. “I don’t think I’m going to give you guys too much today. I’m keeping my thoughts in the room. That’s where they belong and that’s where I’m keeping them.”

Totorella angrily stormed through the locker room after the game, yelling, "You better get it ... straightened out," he yelled, "because I'm not going to be ... around it. I'm not going to be ... around it."

In other news, Andreas Karlsson wil return to the lineup tonight, with Andre Roy sitting, and Karri Ramo will start in goal tonight, giving Johan Holmqvist the night off after a career-high 42 saves in Wednesday's loss.
