With a 4-1 win, the Wings pushed the Stars out of the running for the Stanley Cup Finals and ended their season.
There isn’t much to say about this game, Detroit obviously wanted this series to finally end and they did everything needed to make sure that happened in game 6. They got 3 goals in the first period, and a short handed goal in the second. They shut down the Stars power play. They shut the team down.
But you have to give the Stars credit, despite it all, they fought back hard. They never gave up, not even when there was only 10 seconds left and 3 goals needed to tie.
I am extremely proud of this team. I feel the need to throw them my own victory parade; a victory for getting further than all the “experts” expected, a victory for getting all the monkey’s off their backs, a victory for not giving up and giving me a long post season to watch and enjoy.
With all that said, Go Pens!
