The Detroit Red Wings looked like they might have finally hit the wall after being obliterated by Nashville 7-1 on Thursday. No would have been surprised if Columbus made quick work of them in the weekend back to back series. Instead, the opposite happened.
The Red Wings swept the series, winning 3-1 on Saturday and then 4-1 Sunday.
