Wings/Coyotes Game 6

And the puck is down as the Red Wings try to dispose of the Coyotes.

Less than 2 minutes in and Phoenix goes a man down on a lazy penalty in the neutral zone.

Bryzgalov making all kind of saves and might have to do it again as Detroit draws another penalty.

WOW! Detroit with all the early momentum.

That comes to a halt pretty quick.

Lori Korpikoski beats Howard between the legs. 1-0 Dogs.

Phoenix takes another penalty. Lenghty 5-on-3 for the Wings.

The Coyotes kill off both penalties and keep ot 1-0 in their favor.

At the end of 1 the score remains 1-0 Phoenix. Lots of hitting by Detroit. Bryzgalov came ready to play. He has made some big stops with frantic action in front.

The 2nd period begins and Bryzgalov makes some ridiculous playground type saves.

Power play for the Coyotes and a chance to go up 2-0.

The 0-fer on the power play is over for the 'Yotes

Schneider gets credit for the goal on a shot from the point. 2-0 Coyotes

Detroit responds on the very next shift.


Brad Stuart cuts the lead in half. 2-1 Desert Dogs.

Jimmy Howard comes up big right off the faceoff after the Detroit goal.

Just about halfway through the period and Phoenix goes back on the power play.


Now 3-1 Coyotes. Ridiculous cross ice pass from Lang to Vrbata and he roofs it.


Petr Prucha off a face off throws one toward the net with traffic to the side of Howard and it finds the back of the net. 4-1 Phoenix. Wolski gets credit for the goal.

Phoenix is 20 minutes away from a Game 7 with Detroit. The weather is nice in Phoenix but Detroit does not want to back there. They will come out like gangbusters to at least try and tie this thing up in the 3rd.

Zetterberg with an iffy penalty for tripping.


Keith Yandle with a wrist shot from the point is deflected in by Talyor Pyatt. 3rd PPG of the game makes it 5-1 Phoenix. The Joe is quiet.

Detroit on the power play after Derek Morris draws an extra 2. He fought Abdelkader after Stempniak got smashed into the boards.

Abdelkader mixes it up again. He gets 4 and 10. 1st guy in and out of the shower for the Wings.

Puck fired from a strange angle play is under review and....

Darren Helm makes it 5-2.

That'll do it folks. Sets up a white-out Game 7 on Tuesday night in the desert.
