from Seth Rorabaugh of Empty Netters at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,
-That was a butt kicking plain and simple. Detroit executed their game plan and completely disrupted the Penguins’. They out-hit and out-shot the Penguins and they out-hustled them as well. That was as dominant of a playoff game we have seen this season.
-For as much talk there is about the Red Wings ample offensive skill, their defense won this game and has pretty much carried them to this point. There isn’t a finer defensive team in the league. Playing from behind on this team is tough.

The sensible fans basically anticipated this, because we know how well the Wings can shut things down.
I guess you have to be dominated to understand what we’ve seen all playoffs. Welcome to the show.
