Red Wings drop Stars for record 21st straight home win
DETROIT -- The Detroit Red Wings won an NHL-record 21st straight home game, beating the Dallas Stars 3-1 on Tuesday night.
Henrik Zetterberg and Brad Stuart scored midway through the first period for the Red Wings, who broke the mark of 20 set by the Boston Bruins during the 1929-30 season, and matched by the Philadelphia Flyers in 1976.
Fans at Joe Louis Arena gave the team a standing ovation in the final minute and were chanting: "21! 21!" After the game, the Red Wings raised their sticks to acknowledge the cheering fans.
In the NHL's seven seasons with a shootout to eliminate tie games, Boston won 14 straight at home during the 2008-09 season. That was the longest streak until Detroit's current run of dominance in the Motor City.
Joey MacDonald made 20 saves, filling in again for the injured Jimmy Howard, and was 32.8 seconds away from his third NHL shutout.

I'm actually a bit surprised that some of the older Detroit teams didn't do something like this... Detroit have been a well-oiled machine for what... 15 years now? One of the best run sports franchises in the world, really.

I agree, Machin, but then I get called a homer. Not only have they kept it up since the mid-late 90s, not only did they survive the implementation of a salary cap (which is bigger than a lot of people give it credit for.. it can be a backbreaker in sports), but they didn't miss a single beat afterwards. They were and still are finals contenders every year.
We are really, really spoiled hockey fans over here.

Detroit doesn't deserve %&$#. They already had the successful Tigers who btw just got one of the biggest FA acquisitions in the entire MLB this offseason. They have the successful Lions who just emerged out of a long coma, with arguably the best WR in football playing for them. They have the Detroit Red Wings who have been a powerhouse for a millenia.
So tell me why Detroit deserves any good news? Because they make crappy cars and nobody wants to buy their crap cars? Is that why I have to feel sorry for them?

Habs fans shouldn't call anyone out!
they cheer louder for a player getting hit in the face with the puck than they do when their team scores.

I'm not going to as many games or following it as closely this year because my life is so chaotic. Sadly, it doesn't look like it'll get better until this time next year. I don't think many VN posters are missing hockey threads.
