Wings Sleeping With The Fishes, Sharks Advance

The Detroit Red Wings could not complete the epic comeback last night, as the San Jose Sharks finally got their elusive 4th win to end the series.  The “gutless” Patrick Marleau scored the winner on a 2 foot tap-in just past the midway point of the third period.  He followed up goals from Logan Couture and Devon Setoguchi.  Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk replied for the Wings.

The goal was Marleau’s first point of the series, and he had taken criticism from former teammate Jeremy Roenick for his perceived lack of compete level in his game.  Antti Niemi made 38 saves for the Sharks, bringing his career playoff series record to 6-0.

The Sharks move on to face the Vancouver Canucks in the Western Conference Final which begins Sunday.

Look for the SenShot Round 3 preview on Saturday!

Tonight is a dark night in the NHL playoffs, but the Binghamton Senators are in action as they visit Charlotte again.  The BSens are looking to take a commanding 2-0 lead after their 7-4 victory to open the series last night.
