This is the game when things really started to get nasty between these 2 teams.
24:43 - #17 - 2010 - Game 4 vs SJ - 5/6/10
The Johan Franzen Show. Incredible 4 goal - 2 assist performance to keep the Wings alive for another day.
27:23 - #16 - 2007 - Game 5 vs Cgy - 4/21/07
The Wings find themselves in a familiar position: Underdog opponent, 2-2 series tie, afternoon game on home ice. They were in the same situation the previous 2 seasons (as well as '01) and played awful in each game and eventually lost in 6. This was a statement game, and the beginning of 3 long playoff runs in a row.
29:20 - #15 - 2007 - Game 4 @ SJ - 5/2/07
Series turning point. Robert Lang scores with less than a minute left in regulation to tie the game, and Mathieu Schneider wins it in Overtime to even up the series at 2-2.
30:49 - #14 - 2009 - Game 4 @ CBJ - 4/23/09
The Wings complete the sweep in a wild 6-5 game to become the first defending champion since '02 to advance to the 2nd round.
34:49 - #13 - 2011 - Game 4 vs SJ - 5/6/11
Nick Lidstrom scores his last 2 playoff goals, and Darren Helm nets the winning goal late in the 3rd period to keep the Wings alive for another day... or week.

a "greatest comeback" compilation for the wings would be cool too.

[@cchckey27]

You are legendary with all this content. You are a god. The yzerman goal against the blues I watch at least once a month.

22:44 MY GUY MCCARTY ALWAYS READY TO FIGHT AND PROTECT!! LOVE IT!

[@dudefood825]

The hatred between Detroit and Colorado in the mid 90's is insane. If that's not up there with one of the most fierce rivalries in sports then I don't know what is.

[@ericsbuds]

awesomeeeee. thanks awood. incredible compilation you've made here :D

[@IntnstyAngle]

Hopefully you get some work in the upcoming playoffs... great piece of work here Awood!

[@RedWingFan1340]

I miss Lidstrom.

[@chrisuncleahmad]

Couple of thoughts here: #24- Crazy to think Detroit only won 8 road games all year. We'll never see another playoff team win only 8 road games in a season unless we have another shortened season. #17- With all due respect to Bertuzzi, I really wish he didn't get credit for his goal and Franzen got #5. The closest we have come to a 5-goal playoff game since 1989.

[@anthonyl1787]

20:50 love it!

[@Pacowwe]

ALL HAIL AWOOD !!!!!!

[@anthonyl1787]

22:30 MY GUY MCCARTY!!!

[@Natalie-xh6ph]

The older games are so confusing to watch sometimes because they don't keep the score and the time on the screen.

[@edog4568]

That's so cool

[@dftns19]

I love you.

[@rvrabota]

Касс!!!

[@pressstart66]

I hope Roy's game 7 meltdown is on here

[@dftns19]

***** we won the cup that year.....so no.

[@Anthony6969ify]

Actually that was 96 so we didn't, it should be on part 2

[@awood40]

Anthony Bamboola Roy's Game 7 meltdown was in 2002. It'll be in the Top 24 games from the cup years.

[@Anthony6969ify]

My bad idk why I thought he was thinking of the yzerman goosebumps overtime goal lmaoo. Yeah your right the Roy was 2002
