11:21 AM ET 03.03 | Shake things up. Fire the coach. Trade the captain. Make a move. For the love of pucks, do something, anything. That's been the cry of many over the past two-plus weeks as the Lightning have gone from the height of a 6-1 start to the depths of a 3-9-1 stretch entering Saturdays' game at Boston. That includes, as some have suggested in the Twitterverse and elsewhere, with head coach Guy Boucher, who has one year remaining on his contract. Not sure that's the case right now. "I think our coaches are doing a good job they are working hard they are looking for solutions,'' GM Steve Yzerman said. "There are a lot of areas I'm looking for players to get better, I'm looking for them to play hard, and as I've said (Thursday) was a disappointing game but this team has played hard, they have competed hard and the strong majority of nights again last night was a game that I was not happy with but the rest of the games every other game we played hard. So our coaches are doing a good job they are smart guys, they work hard, they are committed, they are doing everything that they can and they're looking at ways to get better and are doing all we can ask.''

This team may just be in a need of a shakeup. It's time to trade Vinny.

Move team 20 degrees north might help. Hard to play when it's 80+ outside.

My vote is for the Lightning to move about +16.1 degrees latitude and -6.2 degrees longitude.
