GDT - WCQF Game 4: Red Wings (1-2) host Ducks (2-1) 8:00

05/06/2013 at 6:40am EDT

1-3, 5-4, 0-4.

Granted, three games isn't the biggest sample. 5 goals = win, 1 goal and 0 goals = loss. If 5 is the outlier, DET are in really deep trouble. A 2.00 G/G average won't win many contests. DET finished the season averaging only 2.54 G/G (20) - - scoring woes have plagued DET all year, that is nothing too shocking.

It was DET's defense that carried the Wings this season, 2.29 GA/G (5). The Wings defense is being shredded right now to the tune of 3.67 GA/G. It seems that ANA own the damn puck in the DET end.

I think it was Mandingo that said something like, if DET are to win, they'll have to play a perfect game - - so far, they have been anything but that. Game 3 was a shit sandwich for damn near everyone.

Hard times, bitches. LGRW
