from Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail,
The lesson on Monday night: It doesn’t take much for Detroit to turn nothing into something. The Red Wings received three goals from the brilliant, mercurial Pavel Datsyuk, along with a back-breaking third-period shorthanded goal from Henrik Zetterberg, to engineer the victory which, once again, came without Johan Franzen, the leading goal-scorer of the 2008 playoffs.
Zetterberg’s goal was particularly significant, in that it came with the Stars down by just a goal and on the power play for the fifth time. But Zetterberg picked off an errant pass deep inside his own zone and went coast-to-coast, eventually turning Richards inside out with a little dipsy-doodle magic, before moving across the crease and burying his shot past Stars’ goaltender Marty Turco.
added 11:29pm, from Adam Proteau of the Hockey News,
Well, we just finished Game 3 of the third-round series between Detroit and Dallas, and while you may not have to hand it to the Wings, I certainly do.
Their 5-2 defeat of the Stars Monday left no more illusions as to which team deserves a shot at the equally imposing Pittsburgh Penguins for this season’s NHL championship, and which team will be contacting the moving van companies with a firm vacating date in hand.

I never though that the Red wings were that good I though that they would od like what they did last year. But I’m wrong and the red Wings are going to win Wednesday and they will beat the pens in the fnals in 6.
P.S I don’t like the Pens
