A combination of starting the game off flat, a disallowed Tomas Holmstrom goal, and Dallas actually showed up, resulted in the Wings first loss in ten games. They return to home with a chance to finish off the Stars at Joe Louis Arena.
Johan Franzen is still out with concussion-like symptoms. At this point, there is no potential date for his return and he has only recently started off-ice conditioning.
The game starts at 1:30pm and will be shown on NBC. NBC is also broadcasting the Preakness horse race at 4:30pm so if they game goes longer than three hours, be sure to flip to Versus to catch the rest of the game. Those of us living in the Detroit or Dallas area will be able to continue watching the game on NBC. Go Wings!
