The Lightning haven’t had solid goaltending since the year before Dwayne Roloson got bad.  Last season it was Anders Lindback who Steve Yzerman went out and got, but he couldn’t get the job done consistently.  Then at the trade deadline they acquired Ben Bishop from Ottawa.  Going into the coming season with that tandem, the Lightning will be looking for one of them to catch fire and prove they can be a true #1 for the long haul.
