from Michael Farber at Sports Illustrated,
Indeed the most vocal that Lidstrom became during this year’s playoff run was before Game 6 of the Western Conference finals, after Detroit had lost two straight to the Dallas Stars. According to Cleary, Lidstrom said, “O.K., boys, this is going to be a good night for us. Do what we do, boys. Just believe in ourselves, and let’s not be nervous.” The Red Wings won 4-1 to clinch the series. Lidstrom speaks the hockey idiom in an English so lightly accented that veteran fourth-liner Kirk Maltby said he “found it weird” when Tomas Holmstrom joined the team in 1996 and Maltby heard Lidstrom speaking Swedish for the first time.
