| Not to change the subject, but anytime you get a good enough team playing a long series, adjustments get made, and teams deal. Look at Dallas and Detroit. Detroit could have easily won game 4 with a couple of breaks (the no goal call, a few hit goalposts, Dallas's lucky goal off the chest of their forward...,) but you can't say Dallas isn't getting Detroit's number a bit. They did a great job of cutting off the passing lanes and anticipating Detroit's breakout patterns. I expect Detroit will come out with a bit more fire on Saturday, and possible change things up a little bit. It's good to lose one or two, it reminds the team that they aren't so great they don't have to play hard every shift. I've seen Detroit year after year with a certain lack of urgency. Even down 3 games to 1 they play like they expect to win, and in the playoffs, that won't get it done. They run into a goalie on a hot streak, and they just can't get it done. Look at game 4, Detroit outshot Dallas like 35-22, and lost 3-1. But it happens, I'm confident Detroit will win out, I think a Pens V Wings cup will be one of the best series in years.
