Shutout!

Posted on January 6, 2014 at 02:52 PM.

Both teams have the offensive firepower, but defense wins championships! It certainly won Game 2 for Detroit. The plan for Detroit last offseason, after the shocking loss to the Blackhawks, was to beef up. They got pushed around too much.

The acquisition of more defensively minded players have paid off well for Detroit. They're halfway to their first Stanley Cup since 2008.

Team Notes
Chad Larose was injured in Game 2 and would only return in case of a Game 7.
