Here are the morning papers for the Stanley Cup Finals which resume tonight...
Detroit Red Wings (1) versus Pittsburgh Penguins (2):
- Tomas Holmstrom will suit up for Game 5 tonight. It appears that Chris Chelios will remain on the sidelines for the possible clinching game tonight. The Red Wings are acting like it is just another game tonight, explains Helene St. James. St. James believes that Henrik Zetterberg has to be the Conn Smythe favorite. Meanwhile, Mitch Albom decided to take a closer look at Nicklas Lidstrom. Wings fans will love the fact that 28 out of 29 Stanley Cup finalists have won the Cup when leading the Finals 3-1.
- Forget winning the series, the Penguins are just concerned about winning Game 5, writes Robert Dvorchak. Sometimes you have to look at the numbers, explains Bob Smizik. Michel Therien explained his distribution of ice-time to the press on Sunday. You just cannot match the Wings' playoff experience, writes Chuck Finder.
