Experience Counts

from Bob McKenzie of TSN,
I said before this series that the big factor that the Detroit Red Wings had on their side was experience. That’s not just the experience of 23 Cups to just four on the side for the Pens. It is the experience of the last four seasons that twice saw the Wings capture the Presidents’ Trophy and then have dismal post-seasons.
That’s the type of experience you need to win the Cup. Whenever things got tough, the Wings had something to draw upon. Pittsburgh didn’t have that, and that was the difference in this series.
