Blues catching the Wings pinching a few times in the early minutes but only one real dangerous chance with a mini-breakaway. All part of the plan, just tiring them out since they only have 17 skaters. Another stroke of good fortune as the Blues whiffed going for a one-knee snipe into the open net. Luck runs out with a goal Ned really should have had. Nathan Walker puts the Blues up 1-0.
Red Wings having a bit of a block party in our zone, not as dramatic as That One Shift but good team defense, except the part where you need to clear the puck.
