a series after being in that situation against Boston last spring and Chicago succumbed in Game 7 against Vancouver earlier in this postseason. Now, the Detroit Red Wings have a chance to join the 2010 Flyers and two other NHL clubs (1942 Toronto Maple Leafs, 1975 New York Islanders) as the only teams to ever win a series after trailing 3-0. Detroit's trump card for Thursday's Game 7 in San Jose is quite possibly the best all-around hockey player in the world, Pavel Datsyuk. Datsyuk has been t

Daniel Sedin and Mason Raymond had first period goals while Roberto Luongo made 23 saves for the Presidents' Trophy winning Canucks, who last made it to the conference finals in 1994 when they defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in five games to advance to their second Stanley Cup Finals. That series saw Vancouver, which featured Russian superstar Pavel Bure, lose in seven games to the New York Rangers. Vancouver now awaits the winner of the San Jose/Detroit serie

There's not any quit,'' said Detroit goalie Jimmy Howard, who made 39 saves. ``Our season was on the line there in the third period, and we found a way.''

The Red Wings moved closer to adding to their already storied history.

The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs, 1975 New York Islanders and 2010 Philadelphia Flyers are the only teams to win a series after losing the first three games. With Chicago winning three straight to force a Game 7 against Vancouver in the opening round, that's enough preced

The Sharks' last seven wins in the postseason against Detroit have been by exactly one goal. Only the Toronto Maple Leafs have done that, beating the Montreal Canadiens by a goal in seven straight victories from the 1947 to 1959 playoffs, according to STATS LLC.

Down 3-0 in the series, then down 3-0 in Game 7, the Flyers shockingly rallied to win the decisive game 4-3 and move on to the conference finals.

The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs and the 1975 New York Islanders were the only NHL teams to overcome 3-0 deficits to win a best-of-seven playoff series.

Here they are again, one year later ... in the same round.

The Bruins, of course, want to put the series to rest. T

The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs and the 1975 New York Islanders are the only other clubs to win a series after trailing 3-0. The Canucks have never lost a series that they have led three-games-to-none.

Let's break down some of storylines that arose and how they could evolve as this organization moves forward. OFFENSE The biggest surprise of the 2010-11 season had to be the emergence of three talented goal scorers not named Phil Kessel. Kess

Montreal finished with a 44-30-8 record and 96 points tied for sixth with the Sabres, who also ended with 96 points after winning against the Blue Jackets on Saturday.
