As an adjunct to the quick take, and because this stuff comes together before all the stories are available to concoct an actual wrap-up--and hopefully to make said wrap-up a little easier to read--here are the multimedia offerings from the Red Wings' 3-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 3 of their second-round series, starting with NBC-narrated higlights:

Dater: Colorado Avalanche will name Patrick Roy their next coach

Mon dieu! Per the Denver Post's Adrian Dater:
Patrick Roy will be the next coach of the Avalanche, according to Roy's brother, Stephane.
"They're discussing the final details of an arrangement. Colorado is going to be very happy. Patrick is looking for a new challenge," said Stephane Roy, the younger brother of his famous sibling.
The Avalanche would not confirm a deal is in place. Patrick Roy could not be reached for comment, and neither could Avalanche vice president of hockey operations Joe Sakic.
Stephane Roy, who played briefly in the NHL, posted on his Facebook page Monday night, "For all my friends I'd like you to know before the official news spreads that my older brother will be the new coach of the Colorado Avalanch(sic)."

The Hawks, they wuz robbed! But what if the roles were reversed?

You probably know by now that the Chicago Blackhawks could have tied their game against the Detroit Red Wings had a goal not been waived off because one Andrew Shaw was ruled to be interfering with Jimmy Howard, as ESPN Chicago's Scott Powers noted...
“I disagreed with the call,” Quenneville said. “He didn’t touch the goalie. ... It certainly [changed the momentum of the game.] We’re 2-2, had everything going, some hits, offensive zone time. Obviously coming back from 2-0 that quick, we were in great shape.”
The play began when Blackhawks forward Viktor Stalberg put a shot on net from the right circle with 14:20 left in the third period. The puck was deflected just before it reached goaltender Jimmy Howard and traveled into the net. The official standing just to the left of the net immediately waved it off.
The replay showed Shaw was standing in the crease, but he appeared to not make contact with Howard. Shaw had also been bumped further into the crease by two Red Wings just moments before the goal.

Blackhawks Down

Updated at 2057 PST because I forgot something really important at the end of this post.
No...not down.
Hammered.
Right now the Blackhawks are the hammer and the Red Wings are the nail. That will not change during the duration of these Western Conference semifinals.
The Blackhawks are too fast for Detroit. They're too deep. The Hawks are much more experienced, especially at the blue line. They're too well conditioned.
Chicago is too everything for a Wings team that appeared out of gas after going a full seven games against Anaheim in the first round.

Red Wings-Blackhawks Game 3 quick take: take your anger and shove it into the net
Blog: The Malik Report By George Malik

Updated 7x with more and more video at 11:17 PM: I get it. The Hawks will look at the goalposts and at the waved-off goal by Andrew Shaw and insist, despite the penalty disparity, that they should still be playing the Red Wings, who managed to hang on and defeat them 3-1.
I get that the media will insist that Shaw was pushed into the crease by Jakub Kindl, and that it should at least be 2-2--Puck Daddy already has the play of course (they were silent on Saturday, all evening long), and that Patrick Kane's goal was "completely legal" because the breakaway pass-over-Quincey-and-Smith's head was sent to him after Johnny Oduya cleanly hit johan Franzen who was down, but hey, the rules demand that play continue if one of what Eddie Olczyk would deem one of Oduya's "pushes" (see: his "push" to Justin Abdelkader, using his stick) just happened to drop a guy (clip? Clip? Nope).
They can all go *#$%@& themselves. The refereeing was terrible on both sides, but the Hawks "got" the goal they "lost." The end.

Gustav Nyquist pulls the ‘Ray Sheppard,’ dekes Crawford down and scores
Blog: The Malik Report By George Malik

Ray Sheppard was as slow as Larry Murphy and had hands of stone in terms of puckhandling, but he scored 50 goals for the Wings the year before they flipped him to San Jose for Igor Larionov, and he did so by skating in on goalies and simply waiting for them to take themselves out of the play. Gustav Nyquist made a Ray Sheppard-like deke on Corey Crawford tonight, but he only did so after absolutely flying up ice and dekeing and dangling around Brent Seabrook:

Red Wings hope to aid fallen firefighter’s family on Thursday
Blog: The Malik Report By George Malik

According to Red Wings community relations manager Christy Hammond, the Red Wings are holding a charitable drive for a fallen firefighter's family this Thursday:
The Detroit Red Wings encourage fans coming down to Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals to make a donation to help ‘Fill a Boot’ at any of the arena entrances this Thursday, May 23, against the Chicago Blackhawks (NBCSN, CBC and 97.1 The Ticket). All funds collected will be donated to the Westland Fire Fighters Charity’s fund for the family of fallen firefighter Brian Woehlke, who passed away while battling a Westland fire on May 8. He leaves behind his wife Jennifer and his 13-month-old daughter Ava.
Representatives from Dearborn FD will be on hand with their boots at each arena entrance to collect monetary donations from the time doors open at 6:30 p.m. until the puck drops at 8:00 p.m. Captain Henrik Zetterberg will personally match all donations collected on Thursday up to $3,500.
