Watching the NHL playoffs from the comfort of home, Michael Grabner knows all too well how the Detroit Red Wings are feeling.
Grabner witnessed several breakaway opportunities thwarted by Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Ben Bishop during Thursday's Game 5, prompting the free-agent forward - who's notoriously ineffective when in all alone - to empathize and educate.
Looks like @DetroitRedWings got the "grabners" today..must have gone to the same breakaway school #harderthanitlooks #stonehands

Still, that Bishop guy is pretty good.
