Notes:  Detroit out-shoots the Penguins 34-22 in their second straight shutout to take a 2-games-to-none lead in the finals.  They seemed to dominate the ice all night, giving the Penguins fits on defense and keeping goalie Marc-Andre Fleury busy.  The series now moves to the Igloo in Pittsburgh, where the Pens have won 17 straight and were undefeated in the playoffs.
