opening game was against the Ducks... Pavel Datsyuk had a Gordie Howe hat trick(fight,goal,and an assist)... last fight for Datsyuk,was May 12,2009,against Ducks... must hate Anaheim...team was kidding him about losing Lady Byng(most gentlemanly player,which he has won four times,after fight)... crowd erupted when penalty was announced for Datsyuk... Mike Modano scored goal on his first shot on goal,of season... Jimmy Howard faced twenty-one shots,for his first shutout of season(a 4-0 whitewashing of the Ducks)...
second game was against the Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks... Valtteri Filppula scored two goals-including game-winner,at 6:01,of third period... Todd Bertuzzi scored the other goal,in a 3-2 win,over the hated Blackhawks... defense was good around net,in last thirteen minutes... win spoiled Stanley Cup championship banner-raising for Chicago... Blackhawks have lost first two games,in overtime,against Colorado,in Denver,and now,against Red Wings,at home,in Chicago... hate Blackhawks,and loving them losing,the first two games,like Red Wings did last year... it was a back to back series of games,and they beat both opponents,with a passion that was not seen,until after Olympic break,last year,and they were rested,unlike last year,when they injured,most of the year,as a team... GO RED WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!! WATCH OUT NHL!!!!!!!
