I didn't get to watch the game....but that doesn't matter. According to this thread Detroit was getting screwed non-stop, but because they're that good they beat the Ducks + Refs. Sometimes the Ducks looked good, but that's only because Detroit sometimes doesn't play to their full potential. That doesn't matter either, though....because Detroit at their shittiest is still better than anybody else.
I watched it and I'm not a Wings fan.
The penalty on the hit to Selanne was legit, because the puck was away from him when the hit was initiated - it happened to come back behind him as he went down. But it was a slow whistle which made the call look bad.
The PP goal by Anaheim that cut the lead to 3-2 was pure BS - Pronger shoved Hudler hard from behind, and Hudler slid into Hiller on his knees - they called interference, and it was comical.
The tying goal was a bit of luck, they scored after the puck hit a loose stick near the boards - but if Detroit had been a little tougher, that puck would have already been cleared.
The game-winner was after some good work by Zetterberg, who then put the puck into the crease so Cleary could jam it in. Hiller complained about his pads being hit, and they looked at it, but it was a legit goal off of good work by the Wings. They deserved to win the game, and when it was tied 3-3 the Ducks were very fortunate to have a tie score.
It should be a good series between two Original Six teams. vBet coming soon.
Why are you so negative? It's Detroit. Of course they'll have something left. I expect them to win, personally.
