Tuesday, May 21
Detroit at Anaheim (9 p.m. EDT). The Ducks try to close out the Red Wings at home.
IN CONTROL
Anaheim goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere has made 72 saves on 76 shots in two games since a 5-0 meltdown against Detroit last week. The Ducks won both games and now have a 3-2 series lead with game 6 Tuesday night in Anaheim.
HURT
Sabres forward Dainius Zubrus was sidelined by a knee injury in Buffalo’s season-ending loss to Ottawa in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals. Zubrus confirmed the injury on Monday, two days after the Sabres were eliminated. NHL teams aren’t required to identify injuries during the playoffs.
SPEAKING
“The 5-0 game, I got toilet-papered at my home by Red Wings fans, so I thought, ‘I’ve got to raise my level here,”’ Anaheim Ducks goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere after the Ducks’ loss to Detroit last week.
