"Let's go for two, people. Let's keep Lord Stanley in the Bay, right where he belongs. Let's get that cup again," the seven-time Super Bowl champion said.

Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Carolina Hurricanes 6-4 Saturday to open a commanding lead in their second-round playoff series. They lead the Hurricanes 3-1 in the best-of-seven series heading into Game 5 on Tuesday night at Carolina.
