Game 1: Red Wings 4 Stars 1

The Wings looked like the rest paid off, and the Stars still seemed tired from the San Jose series (after all, they did really play seven games worth of hockey). The play of the game was when Ozzie, who had in my opinion his best game of the playoffs, stoned Nick Hagman on a breakaway in the first period when the score was 2-0. That could have easily brought Dallas back into the game.

I definitely forgot to post my picks for the Conference Finals. Been a busy week...

Red Wings in 6
Penguins in 7 (I was going to pick Philly, but I think that Timonen injury is going to give them a huge hole. He's their best defensemen!)
