OT: Red Wings @ Lightning Game 5 Open Thread
TB lost a stick, so Wings' possession was better, but no joy.
18 min since TB had a SOG.
TB finally got a shot, save Mrazek.

Miller!! 2-0!!
LGRWWWWWW
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!
Glendening skates up the right side, puts a soft shot on goal, Bishop gives up the rebound, Miller cleans up.
What a game Glendening is having.
Mrazek started that play, stopping the shootaround behind the goal. Kronwall to Ericsson on the left, then crossice to Glendening.
I'm referring as much to his D as that assist. Right back to his form of the first 52 minutes the other night.
Wings are backchecking well.
I would like to see the Wings get at least another goal, though.

The Wings' grinders are forechecking well, too. Just need to keep getting the puck deep. Don't want turnovers off of stupid passes near the blue line.
FSD studio crew praising Zetterberg's defensive effort. He's the only Wing who's won more faceoffs than not. (Overall TB has won 22 faceoffs to the Wings' 15.)
Third period about to start.
Finish them!

Lots of pressure from TB, hooking on us.
Damn. Andersson one of the better PKers...
Mrazek sharp, getting across on that save.
Yay, PK!
Man, how long can Detroit shut this power play down? Incredible.
TB has only 2 PPs this game. Stay out of the box, and they don't have PP opportunities.
I meant for the series.

Ouch, Quincey goes awkwardly into the boards.
No kidding, 8 shots for them to 0 for us.
Man, don't go into this "I guess we can just ice the puck for the rest of the game", prevent D shit...
I don't think it's that, so much as TB has really come out strong, and we haven't done the best job of getting the puck out of our zone.
