Detroit, we’ve been here before.
The Red Wings dominated the play for much of the third period and overtime in today’s second round game 2. And still, they skated off the ice with a loss after an opponent’s role player scored the winning goal.
I don’t know what the root cause is here, but I do know this: this is going to be a long series, unless the Wings’ stars continue to disappear. Anaheim is all over Zetterberg and Hossa and Datsyuk, but if we’re going to have a chance in this series, these are the players that have to get it done.
