I don’t know if it was so much that Phx choked, or it was that DET brought it hard. They came hard and fast, and not just for one period. If they play this way the rest of the way I can see them making it to the finals. If they play like they did in 4 and 6 again, get the golf clubs out.

“I don’t know if it was so much that Phx choked, or it was that DET brought it hard.”

I think it’s a combination of the two, but like L-i-m-h, I feel bad for Brysgalov.  He deserved a better fate than being hung out to dry by his team.

This could’ve easily been 12-0.

Oh Phoenix. You were so adorable, what with “your” fans that packed that arena for what…six games to end the year? Good battle by your team, though.

But, I can’t wait to see your team in Winnipeg, Hamilton or somewhere, anywhere else but Phoenix next year. If so, games should be fun to watch with 70% capacity again.

Note:
That play was the old illegal “2 line pass” from Zetterberg to Datsyuk.  Would have been whistled back in the old days.  Eliminating the Red line was a good thing.
