Wings Take Stanley Cup


It's been a six year wait, but for the Red Wings and their fans, it's worth it as Stanley is back where he belongs in Michigan. After a triple overtime heartbreaker Monday, the Detroit Red Wings took care of business Wednesday in Pittsburgh. The Red Wings end another dream season with a championship. It was an unbelievable season and even more unbelievable playoff run by the Red Wings, who had 10 Stanley Cups in their glorious past, but none in the last 6 years, so the hunger to tote the cup was clearly back, and what a thrilling finish to game 6 in Pittsburgh.

Henrik Zetterburg rushes the net in the 3rd period with the wings up 2-1. It appears as though the puck is frozen under the goalie. The Wings say it's in. Goalie Marc Andre Flurry never froze it. It counted, 3-1 Red Wings. It was 3-2 and a save by Chris Osgood at the buzzer. That would have tied it, but Osgood kicked it away and the Wings win the 11th Stanley Cup in their history.
