Darryl Sittler knows exactly how Sam Gagner felt.
''Everything falls into place,'' he said. ''Every shot you take pretty well goes in or you make a pass and the guy completes it. It's magical those types of nights. They don't happen very often.''

Seriously…Shootouts
The Detroit Red Wings rode their patented combination of speed and skill to overcome Ryan Kesler and the Vancouver Canucks in a 4-3 shootout victory Thursday at Rogers Arena.
