The site described as “exciting”
“It is a very well done and comprehensive site,” said Todd Smith, a Webmaster for Salisbury College in Maryland. The site is designed to offer Lightning fans the opportunity to express their opinions and openly comment on the organizational decisions made by the team from draft day through the Stanley Cup finals,” Philp said. “Unlike other hockey blogs, www.NHLShout.com provides Tampa Bay fans the opportunity to take part in polls, buy Lightning merchandise and blog about only the Tampa Bay Lightning.”
Philp, a sports writer and a former Director of Operations for the leading sports memorabilia company in the world, said he compiled statistics and analysis based on his conversations with sports writers, sports business owners, athletes and fans of the Tampa Bay Lightning. “I realized the potential for helping Tampa hockey fanatics express their opinions while using a medium that they are comfortable with.”
Philp explained that now people can voice their opinion and connect with Bolt fans world wide from the comfort of their home or work. Individuals cannot only take part in weekly polls, but can win prizes by writing their opinions and analysis. “Lightning hockey fans can now debate with other fans all over the world, not just around the office water cooler,” Philp said.
