Red Wings 2, Kings 2

The Red Wings had a 5-on-3 power play and not surprisingly scored. These guys are tough at full strength, but to give them a two-man advantage is a little much to ask. Marian Hossa scored on a wrister from the top of the slot and beat Jason LaBarbera five-hole at 9:24 in the second period.

And, to make matters worse, they gave them a full two minute five-on-three ... if Detroit didn't score that would have been a HUGE boost for the Kings.
