According to an article on freep.com, Tomas Kopecky is going to be back in the lineup for Game 3. He's replacing Kyle Calder, who was rather quiet in the first two games. Hopefully this gives the Wings a bit more drive. He should be well rested, since he hasn't played since he broke his clavicle back in December. Hopefully he's all healed up and can provide a bit more size and grit on the ice.

I thought that Kopecky played a very good game. His size and style of play helps the Wings a lot against a team like the Ducks. Babcock did some great work with mixing up the lines last night to get the energy and creativity back and it paid off.

I was kinda worried after I saw him take the first two penalties. Then Anaheim went and gave us 8 power plays. I'm glad he's back, and happy he got rid of the rust in the first few shifts. He should be more of an impact in Game 4.

Let's Go Red Wings! Man that Zetterberg is going to get better next year and dominate the NHL. Currently he is a very good All-Star.
