Wings history last 20 years is to lose a series much sooner than their talent should allow. They're at it again...

It's official: Hasek benched; Wings to start Osgood | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

That's huge...

Hasek didn't provide the safety net, he let in a few bad goals. If he's solid, most likely Wings either moving on or come home with a 3-1 series lead. Hopefully Ozzy can stabilize the team. Otherwise it won't be pretty.

I am OK with this...Hasek did his job, but he just didn't react like a 43 year goal tender should. No excuse for the back to back goals that close apart, except our defense kinda failed him too.

Osgood held them in check for the 3rd period and he should be sharp enough to hold down the fort. The winner of game 5 should win the series..

Wings draw first blood in this important game 5 as Fillpula scores about 4 minutes in. This is good beginning, now need to build on this.

Can't believe they let it get to at least a 6 game series!

You're talking about Nashville or Detroit?

Just Great.......an important game and we go into O.T.. Pass the maalox...

I agree. Overtime playoff games are very stressful.

Red Wings out-shot the Predators 53-20 in regulation. Too bad that doesn't help any....
