Looking behind the bench of the National Hockey League's Tampa Bay Lightning yields a comfortable, familiar feeling for Green Bay Gamblers fans. Tampa Head Coach Jon Cooper and Assistant Coach Derek Lalonde once paced behind the bench at the Resch Center. Gamblers are in the front office, too, including Amateur Scout John Burkhart and Video Coach Brian Garlock. All of the alumni are busy preparing for the Eastern Conference finals. Game One against the Islanders is Monday at 7 PM.
You can catch this year's version of the Gamblers on 104.1 WRLU this season, beginning in November.
