Last Two Wings Games

The loss to Chicago was embarrassing. I'm glad we're not playing them in the first round. I have a few concerns going into the playoffs. One of them is the fact that Zetterberg and Franzen are scoring almost all of the Red Wings' goals lately. They teamed up to save the Wings from a loss to Columbus yesterday. Also, it looks like Maltby is going to miss at least the first round with a hamstring injury. As far as I know, Holmstrom, Draper, Samelsson (who cares) and Kopecky are questionable with injuries still and the latest word on Brad Stuart is that he may miss the remainder of the season. The Red Wings will have to overcome a lack of continuity, combined with the fact that this last month has been against nothing but central division (which ended up overall weak once again) teams. They will have to turn up their game a notch to be successful in the playoffs. I'm not worried about the first round, but I have a bad feeling overall.
