The Red Wings are looking to win their fourth Stanley Cup in the last eleven years. They open up their playoff run against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night. The Lightning are a very good team, but the Red Wings should be able to beat them with the talent they have. Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg are two of the best players in the NHL, and they will be looking to lead the Red Wings to victory.
Johan Franzen is also playing very well right now and he could be a difference maker in this series. The Red Wings are definitely the team to beat in the Eastern Conference, and they will be looking to prove it once again this year.
