    Fan Fact

    MAY 20, 2007:     Just 47.3-sec away from a shutout win, the Red Wings instead lost 2-1 at 11:57 of overtime. Anaheim Capt. Scott Niedermayer (#3) took a feed from Teemu Selanne to flutter the game- tieing goal off the stick of Detroit DEF/CAPT Nick Lidstrom on a Ducks power play with Anaheim goaltender J.S. Giguere pulled for a second extra attacker. Then, off an Andreas Lilja turnover, Selanne (#5) lifted an unassisted backhander over Detroit goalie Dominik Hasek for the win. Lilja had earlier scored Detroit's only goal at 6:13/2, his first goal in 29 career NHL playoff games. The Joe Louis Arena win gave the Ducks a 3-2 lead in the NHL Western Conference Finals.

    POW Award

    ANDY DIRKS
    The hamstring hampered Tiger flychaser was red hot at the plate while his teammates struggled to a 3-4 road record during the period of May 7TH--13TH, 2012.  Dirks played in six of the seven games, hitting safely in all of them to extend his personal hitting streak to eight games. The first three games of those six saw Dirks with multiple basehits including a career-best 4-for-4 with a walk and a solo homer (#3) in a May 10TH win at Oakland. Dirks went 11-for-22 for a .500-BA during the road week with 1-HR, 5-R & 4-RBI. Comfortably settled into his #2 spot in the Detroit lineup, Dirks ended the week with a .371-BA for the season, third best in the American League. Dirks earned his first ever POW Award.
