game score,and commentary...

Red Wings 4,Coyotes 3... Red Wings out-played Coyotes,for first two periods... the biggest ovation,of game occurred,when Johan Franzen stepped onto the ice,midway into the game,and the funniest moment of game happened,when Franzen sat on bench,and Mike Babcock asked the trainer,if Franzen needed a visor,by waving his hand over his face,and the trainer told him that Franzen would not want,or wear,the visor,so Babcock asked Franzen if he wanted or needed a visor,and he shook his head,"no",emphatically,and Babcock looked flummoxed,and amazed... the Mule(his nickname) received twenty-three stitches in a fall,and getting hit,by Shane Doan,early in first period,and he smashed his face into the boards... he had cotton in his right nostril,and a loose band-aid over his brow,and still had what looked like dried blood,from his nose to his lip... Coyotes did score three power play goals,to make it close,but honestly,a little more discipline,on Red Wings' part,and game would not been that close,because Red Wings could,and should,have even more goals,but Ilya Bryzgalov stopped a ton of shots,in first two periods,because Pavel Datsyuk had a goal,and three assists... Shane Doan had two power play goals,in third period,because of stupid Red Wings' penalties,in 2:48,of third period,and after that,the Red Wings played very good defense... honestly,i have to give Coyotes much credit,because they played tough,went down 4-0,scratched and clawed their way back into game,and played very well,in third period... Shane Doan is a rough,and tumble player(and not a dirty player),who does not give up,at all... the Coyotes have,as a team,the same attitude,and grit,but if you do ignore their antics,because they irritate teams,with trash talk,and pure grit,they are very beatable... they have firepower to score,but they are much more successful,if they throw off teams with their rough stuff,but if they do not do that,they do take penalties,and a team like the Red Wings can take advantage of them,and beat them rather handily...
