Nope, no Datsyuk vs. St. Louis. As per the norm this season, detroit started the game missing Datsyuk, Draper, Wooley, Dandenault, and with Joseph sitting in only as a backup. Then they finished the game missing Lang. That's their top 3 centers!!! Go ahead, count them, I dare you
The good thing was, that even missing top 3 centers, 2 regular D-man, and using the backup goalie, the Lightning could only manage a 1-1 tie against Detroit. And yes, I know that Tampa completly outskated Detroit in the 3rd, I would imagine being able to roll barely 3 full, competant lines, and that is a stretch, against one of the top skating teams in the league would probably make a team tired after awhile. If the Wings can just get healthy by the playoffs, watch out!!!
And the Avs-Canucks game was a disgrace. Playoff hockey does not include a player having to be carted off the ice, wondering if he will ever be able to walk again, much less play the game again. Moore is a lucky man, because it sounds like with a successful surgery, he will make a full recovery.
