The Pittsburgh Penguins were unable to solve the Detroit Red Wings defense and goaltender Chris Osgood as they lost Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Championship Series 4-0 on Saturday. The Penguins came out strong in the 1st period, but faded as they game went on and Detroit's defensive game kicked in. A poorly executed line change by the Penguins midway through the 2nd period served as the turning point and was all that the Red Wings needed to break the lock on a scoreless game. Another Detroit goal early in the 3rd period enabled the Red Wings to close the defensive noose around the neck of the Penguins. They finished it up with 2-late goals, one short-handed and one on the power play, to give them a 1-0 lead in the series.

I wrote an article a few weeks ago in anticipation of the start of the NHL free agency period. I described it as the NHL's "silly season". I had no idea it would be as silly as it was.
In an off-season where very few marquee free agents were available, teams paid major dollars for players who could best be described as fringe. $300 million was spent on Tuesday, with...

Some might say Detroit stopped officially being known as “Hockeytown” a few years ago. Various polls and surveys have been conducted since that time, and their findings show the location of this fabled land might arguably be a bit further east… in South Philadelphia.

Don't blame Marty Biron for this one.The Flyers were seemingly
in total control against the Red Wings, leading 2-0 late in the second
period and cruising despite being badly outshot by the defending
champs. Biron was at his best, stopping everything the Wings threw at
him, and eventually made 45 saves on the night. Unfortunately, the
Wings ended up with 48 shots...Click...

It was a sign of things to come when Dominik Hasek, the Dominator, was pulled from play in the Nashville series, and Chris Osgood was put in his place. The sign, though, was not for the Wings, but for the Avs. It was a sign of things to come.
