from Kevin O’Donnell of Fox 13 Sports, The Tampa Bay Lightning is a team that loves to talk. On the ice, it’s a necessity. Off ice, this team is all ‘atwitter.’ About half of the team is tweeting, though some more than others.
“I just got it,” said Steve Downie (@S9Downie), as a teammate jokingly yells, ‘Don’t talk about Twitter!’
“I ended up just getting on. [Stamkos] convinced me to get it. We are having fun with it. I really didn’t understand what it was. I didn’t think it was that big of a deal. Turns out everyone has it. I’m not really an internet guy, but I’ve got it now.”
