In Play Magazine
Despite completely outplaying Florida, the Detroit Red Wings lost to the Panthers Friday in overtime.
After a goalless first, Pavel Datsyuk scored his fifth goal of the year on a short powerplay opportunity. In the third, Florida scored off a pass that redirected off of Chris Osgood to the stick of Stephen Weiss in the crease. Only 40 seconds into overtime, Bryan McCabe blasted a one timer by Osgood.
Detroit simply dominated this game and shouldn’t be happy with the fact that they only will walk away with one point. Darren Helm, who played a great game, came up with nothing despite two breakaways. Including blocked and missed shots, Detroit fired 75 pucks at Scott Clemmensen. Including blocks and misses, Florida only managed 39 shots. This should have been a blowout for the Wings, who play again Saturday in Montreal.
In Play! Man of the Game: Scott Clemmensen. Clemmensen posted a .975 save percentage and made 39 saves. Clemmensen also psyched Darren Helm into loosing the puck on his first breakaway, and made the quick save on Helm’s second opportunity.
