Turco > Osgood? That was the only difference I saw in that game.

Agreed, Turco outduelled Osgood. Wings didn't have their normal finish and bad line changes killed them. Like they say, 'It's never over till it's over'.

Whats up with detroits fan base....or lack their of???The name "Hockey town" should be removed and given to philly gggeezz....

Pretty sad attendence for a playoff game, not to mention a possable close-out of the series game.

When you've got one of the worst economies in the nation and some of the highest ticket prices...you do the math.

Dead last in the standings but the state still has money. Detroit is dead until OCP takes over.

As I said earlier. A bad economy does not mean we are bad fans.

They may be high, but I wonder if they are really high if compared to Toronto playoff tickets.

Sorry, don't be stupid. Detroit is oner of the most economically crippled areas in the whole country. I live here, you don't.

Perhaps not as exciting as it once was. Winning teams seem to lose the excitement of the chase. Here in AZ. the Diamondbacks went through dropped off attendance and since they haven't won in awhile it is picking back up.

Personally I would love to go to a Red Wings game. Same with a Montreal game.
