Defending Stanley Cup champs, remember. They lose last night in OT in Vancouver, but...:
"The Red Wings finished a three-game Western Canada swing with five of a possible six points. The Wings couldn't pull off the sweep, losing 3-2 Monday when Sami Salo beat goalie Chris Osgood with a hard and high one-timer from the left circle at 2:33 of overtime."
5 out of 6 points on the road isn't bad. The Wings continue to be a force in the NHL.
They play with a great deal of poise and professionalism, which I admire.
The sports fans of Michigan may have to suffer with the Lions, but at least they have the Wings.
