CSSI: 11/11/09 @ Columbus

Goal 1 (DET 1 CBJ 0): Dan Cleary (3) from Henrik Zetterberg (10) at 1:05, First Period

• Wings on ice: Zetterberg, Cleary, Leino, Kronwall, Stuart

• HP(+): Zetterberg (+0.5) for the steal and getting the shot through. Cleary (+1) for the nice finish off of the rebound.

Goal 2 (DET 2 CBJ 0): Pavel Datsyuk (3) unassisted at 3:03, First Period

• Wings on ice: Datsyuk, Holmstrom, Bertuzzi, Lidstrom, Rafalski

• HP(+): Rafalski (+0.5) for keeping the puck in the offensive zone. Holmstrom (+0.5) for maintaining pressure and helping cause a mishandle that ended up on Datsyuk’s stick. Datsyuk (+1) for netting the goal, even though we could probably hand Mason a point or two for mishandling the shot.

Goal 3 (DET 3 CBJ 0): Kris Draper (3) from Brett Lebda (1) at 7:31, First Period

• Wings on ice: Helm, Draper, Eaves, Ericsson, Lebda

• HP(+): Lebda (+1) for pinching in to keep the puck in the zone and then putting a solid shot on net. Draper (+1) for the excellent tip-in.

Goal 4 (PPG) (DET 4 CBJ 0): Niklas Kronwall (3) from Dan Cleary (5) at 11:57, First Period

• Wings on ice: Cleary, Bertuzzi, Leino, Rafalski, Kronwall

• HP(+): Kronwall (+1) for keeping the puck in the zone and the nifty spin pass to Cleary. Add another (+1) Kronwall for the blast that beats Garon. Bertuzzi gets a (+0.5) for the nice screen in front.

Goal 5 (DET 4, CBJ 1): Rick Nash (12) from R.J. Umberger (7) and Rotislav Klesla (3) at 10:56, Second Period

• Wings on ice: Abdelkader, Maltby, May, Lidstrom, Rafalski

• DP(-): Lidstrom (-1) because 99% of the time he gets his stick on that puck and harmlessly clears it away. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen this time and it wound up costing the Wings.

Goal 6 (DET 5, CBJ 1): Todd Bertuzzi (3) from Pavel Datsyuk (11) and Tomas Holmstrom (3) at 13:17, Second Period

• Wings on ice: Datsyuk, Holmstrom, Bertuzzi, Lidstrom, Rafalski

• HP(+): Datsyuk (+0.5) for the great backhand pass that’s right on the money. Bertuzzi (+1) for the finish, despite his ridiculous triple-clutch of the shot (which I was really tempted to dock him for).

Goal 7 (DET 6, CBJ 1): Ville Leino (3) from Henrik Zetterberg (11) and Nicklas Lidstrom (5) at 13:50, Second Period

• Wings on ice: Zetterberg, Cleary, Leino, Lidstrom, Rafalski

• HP(+): Zetterberg (+0.5) for the nice feed to Leino. Leino (+1.5) for the sick move and unbelievable finish, roofing it right over Mason’s shoulder.

Goal 8 (PPG) (DET 7 CBJ 1): Niklas Kronwall (4) from Brian Rafalski (7) and Todd Bertuzzi (5) at 4:59, Third Period

• Wings on ice: Cleary, Bertuzzi, Leino, Rafalski, Kronwall

• HP(+): Bertuzzi (+1) for the nice steal of the puck in the corner, which ended up keeping the attack alive in the Columbus zone. Kronwall (+1) for the perfectly placed blast that scored. Cleary (+0.5) for a great screen of Mason.

Goal 9 (DET 8 CBJ 1): Justin Abdelkader (2) from Patrick Eaves (3) at 8:08, Third Period

• Wings on ice: Abdelkader, Maltby, May, Ericsson, Lebda

• HP(+): Eaves (+0.5) for the nice backhand pass up the boards. Abdelkader (+1) for taking it the rest of the way and finishing.

Goal 10 (DET 9 CBJ 1): Justin Abdelkader (3) from Brad May (1) and Niklas Kronwall (5) at 18:36, Third Period

• Wings on ice: Abdelkader, Maltby, May, Kronwall, Stuart

• HP(+): May (+0.5) for getting an assist and so he has some points for something other than fighting. Abdelkader (+1.5) for pretty much going coast-to-coast and finishing from a tough angle.
