The Detroit Red Wings now have a 3-1 stranglehold on the 2008 Stanley Cup Final thanks to Saturday night’s 2-1 win at Mellon Arena that saw the Wings frustrate the Pittsburgh Penguins at nearly every turn, especially in the third period when the Wings denied a 5-on-3 Penguins power play for 1:26. Playing without first-line winger Tomas Holmstrom, out with a reported hamstring injury, the Red Wings still found a way to win by emphasizing strong forechecking and defense that frustrated the Pens time and again.
