The Wings came away with a great victory last night due to a late goal by Dan Cleary with 3 minutes left in the game. They held two separate 2 goal leads but the feisty Ducks were able to come back and tie it at 3 with 12 minutes left in the 3rd period. The game winning goal was set up by Zetterberg who tossed the puck into the crease where Dan Cleary was able to stick it past Jonas Hiller.
The rest is history and the city of Detroit, including me, began its celebration. That’s why I sit at work with an extreme hangover, but you know what, it was all worth it. Hockey playoffs come but once a year and when the Wings are able to seal a series, I like to celebrate with some fava beans and a nice bottle of chianti.
So I’m gonna go drink my ice cold water (I prefer Poland spring obviously, since I’m Polish) and take some much needed tylenol and rest up for the series opener against the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday at 3 p.m. EST.
Hopefully I don’t puke at work.
Go Wings!
