Poor effort by Wings, Giguere heroic

The Anaheim Ducks are just one game away from their second Stanley Cup final. The Wings took three penalties in a row in first period, saved only by the Duck's inabillity to score, then dominated the second period, but then gave the game away to a not so impressive Anaheim Ducks. If not for Giguere, who had 36 saves, the Wings would have won this comfordably by three or four goals.

What was really disapointing about Detroit was how they played the last minute of regulation. No team, especially one about to win Game 5, should never ever give up a goal with less than a minute to go. You play like life depends on it, block shots, push people away, and you do what it takes to prevent anyone from taking a shot. If you don't, you don't deserve to win.
