commentary...

in the game against the Sabres,today,it was tight,and yet physical,like most of the Red Wings' games lately... after the Sabres(Cody Hodgson)scored early to go up 1-0,the Red Wings(Darren Helm)scored in the first minute of the second period,and both teams played tentatively the rest of the game,with Johan Franzen scoring the game winner,when the puck went off Sabres' goaltender Ryan Miller's pads,popped into the air,and deflected into the net off a Sabres' player's thigh... Daniel Alfordsson then put the puck into the net for an empty net goal,in the last minute,to put the Sabres away... Johan Franzen and Daniel Alfordsson both had two point nights(a goal and assist each)...
