DET-3 PHX-2 F/SO The Detroit Red Wings were in Glendale Thursday night to face the slumping Coyotes. This must be one of Detroit’s favorite road trips.

Posted on 1 May 2011 by Kirk Butler.
The second game of the Western Conference 2 vs 3 match-up got underway early on the west coast with a noon local start. The Red Wings entered the game desperately needing a split and hoping to bring more energy as any lingering rust from the long layoff between rounds should have fallen off during game 1. Franzen and Zetterberg both started the game despite not being at or near to 100% as coach...

Posted on 30 Apr 2011 by Kirk Butler.

I'm not going to get into a long winded blog about the Flames 2-1 loss to the Detroit Red Wings last night, because to be blunt I can sum it up fairly easily. 1) Detroit out worked Calgary. 2) Miikka Kiprusoff was the only reason this game was close. 3) Craig Conroy was the Flames best player other than Kipper. If you take these three points it doesn't take much imagination to figure out why th...

The Flames showed up to play in the third period completely dominating the Wings en route to a 4-2 victory to slip into 8th and the final playoff spot in the Western Conference. The first period was a b...
