Wings Win Round 2



It was a close one. I know my Wings well, so when they were up 2-0 over the Ducks in the second period, I thought, "This is going to overtime."

The Wings often have trouble maintaining a lead against tenacious teams. I can see what mood they're in from the TV screen. Some nights they feel like keeping their foot on the gas. Others, they get lazy and allow a team back in. Sure enough, it was 3-3 late in the 3rd, until Dan Cleary sewed it up in the last three minutes to make it 4-3.

Now, it's Chicago's turn. They're infamous for coming back when down two or three goals, so the Wings will have to be merciless.
