Just got back from the game, awesome experience. The boys played great. I don't agree with the reffing in the first, but we overcame that. Howie played awesome, and kept us in the game especially in the first.

The best teams beat the refs instead of the other way around. Great poise by the Wings. Like I said, Coyotes have no offense, we should win this series in 5 at most.

Good to see the Wings can still flip the switch. Still miss Zetterberg though

Anyone know where to find post game pressers for all the teams? I assume they can be found on nhl.com somewhere, but I'm not sure where to look?

Just got back too...amazing. Loved the "Todd Bertuzzi chants." His fight and the five on three kill really got the crowed fired up. My ears are still ringing.

I should've know that Franzen's long floating wristers were just waiting for the playoffs to start going in.

After that brutal and penalty filled first period, the Wings certainly turned it around. Howie kept them in it which was quite encouraging.

I was bummed that I was only able to see the last 5 minutes on vs. in an Applebee's. I was stuck in the Bass I holding room at PMEA All-State Chorus for the first two periods, then driving back to my hotel afterwards. Good news on that front, my student felt he did well on his Bass II audition. Thanks for the GDT updates, it kept me sane and informed. I'm glad to hear the Wings stepped up, and I wonder if The Todd is going to be sparked after hearing the chant tonight. Howie seemed to have been a monster in the net tonight, and the PK was sensational. Good things. Is it accurate to think that the switch was flipped after the first?
It's pronounced "Zim" not "Exim". Aw heck with it, just call me Scott.

Todd Bertuzzi took the "switch", ripped it off the wall with his bare hands and then the Wings started playing better.

Bert seems to be turning into something of a folk hero in Detroit. I guess when you're the only guy that'll drop the gloves it's an easy mantle to take up.Todd Bertuzzi took the "switch", ripped it off the wall with his bare hands and then the Wings started playing better. True story
He's been awesome lately, you could tell he was gearing up for the playoffs, and it was obvious today he meant business. Mean, physical Bert is best Bert.

The Joe was Rocking. Bertuzzi was the boss. Howard actually kept the rebounds under control for the most part, and some of his stops were awesome.
