Stanley Cup Finals, Game 5- Penguins @ Detroit Red Wings

The Pittsburgh Penguins have all the momentum as they head into Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals at Joe Louis Arena, but the Detroit Red Wings will be getting a serious emotional lift with the return of star center Pavel Datsyuk. While his on-ice impact will likely be minimal due to his injured right foot, it will be interesting to see if the Wings can rally around him.

Marc-Andre Fleury needs to keep making saves, and it would be dandy if Chris Osgood could revert back to his terrible regular season self. Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin must continue to play like superstars.

We'll see if fatigue has really set in for the Wings. I'm going to the game, so the recap will be late.
