Red Wings fly over Ducks E-mail
Written by Sports Know It Alls Staff   

Last Wednesday, Dan Cleary and Johan Franzen scored two consecutive goals during the third period to lift the Detroit Red Wings past the Anaheim Ducks 4-3.

Cleary equalized the contest with a 30-foot wrist shot that sailed past Ducks goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere on the stick side. 35 seconds after that, Franzen scored the go-ahead goal by batting the puck in the net after a missed attempt by Pavel Datsyuk.

Jiri Hudler and Tomas Holmstrom scored early on for Detroit. The Ducks were led by Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Steve Montador. On the defensive side, Chris Osgood caught 25 shots for Detroit, while Giguere had 29 for Anaheim.

Cleary’s goal was his eighth and for Franzen it was number 19.

The Red Wings were coming from a 5-4 overtime loss at Dallas last Monday, which ended a six-game winning streak.
