How 'bout them Red Wings?!

http://www.freep.com/article/20130524/SPORTS05/305240068/detroit-red-wings-chicago-blackhawks

Detroit isn’t a town that’s known for treating its netminders particularly well. And yet, on the day of the Red Wings' biggest game of the season, the local sports talk radio station was debating which of its current star athletes fans trusted more for a big-time performance: (Jimmy) Howard or Tigers ace Justin Verlander. Howard got overwhelming support.

The Red Wings are the pesky underdog. The goalie is the local folk hero. It’s all backward this spring in Detroit.
