from Shelly Anderson of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,
The Penguins watched the game Monday night, and many have watched the Red Wings other nights.
From that, and from reputation,, the Penguins are well aware of Detroit’s tight defense, led by captain Niklas Lidstrom. And the potent offense led by Henrik Zetterberg, who is tied with the Sidney Crosby atop the playoff scoring race with 21 points. And the shutdown goaltending of Chris Osgood, whose 1.60 goals-against average is the best of the postseason.
“We didn’t play all season, but we saw them enough,” winger Georges Laraque said of the Red Wings who have been among the NHL’s elite teams the past several seasons.
