Apr 11. Ottawa: 2-3 (Home) Yzerman - didnīt play.
Apr 9. Edmonton: 3-3 (Away) Yzerman - 1 goal, 4 shots.

Yzerman finished 14:th in points and 4:th in assists in the league.
Best place for most points this season was 3:rd for Yzerman. (25/11-96)

I think it was a good regular season for Stevie. He didnīt score so much points but he played well.
After a fine start of the season his point production reduced a bit. But the Red Wings had a pretty
good season and that is the most important thing. And of course Stevie had a great piece in that.
Yzerman finished the season very good with 4 goals in the last three games.
I hope he take that kind of play with him in to the play-offs.

YES!, YES!, YES! Detroit Red wings and Steve Yzerman finally wins the Stanley Cup. I think Iīve never been this happy. And Iīm most happy for Yzerman. With 14 years of carring the Detroit Red Wings on his shoulders he finally get the Cup, and he deserves it so much. It is no other player today how has been captain for a team for such a long time as Yzerman. It has been good times but it also has been many tough times through the past 14 years for the Red Wings. But Yzerman always gived his every thing for the team he love. Becuse of that heīs so speciall. Detroit played fantastic all the way through the series. The hole team played so good. All the players did thier very very best and that was unbeliveable to see. They stod up for each other in every situation. Yzerman had a great great part in the tremendous victory. He led the team in a terrific way, like he has now in many years, and now he led the Wings all the way to the Stanley Cup. When i saw him lifting the Stanley Cup Trophy I felt so happy, so happy for one of the greatest hockey players ever in the hole world. In a way I still canīt belive it. This is so fantastic. The Detroit Red Wings are Stanley Cup Campions!!

WOW! I think I`ve never seen such good play by the Red Wings. They played so well and solid. The hole team really gave every thing they had. They didnīt gave Colorado a true chans. If Detroit can take this kind of play with them in to the Stanley Cup Finals I think they can come up with some really big stuff. And I hope they will do that. Stevie had a pretty good series. He played very well, especially in the defense. But the victory over Colorado was not a one man show it was a very very great team work preformence. They must play the same kind of game when they play the Flyers. Much skating and a lot of passing, they must play very good. Now I hope and I belive that the Red Wings can beat the Flyers and win the cup. I hope Yzerman and the hole team take this chans because maybe this chans is the only they get in a very long time. for the first time in 42 years. I think the hole team deserves it and I really think Yzerman deserves it more than any one in the league.
GO WINGS!
GO WINGS!

A very solid serie by the Red Wings! They played very well and I think they had the
situation under control all the time although three of the games went to overtime.
If they can countinue with this play now in the Conference finals i think they can come up
with some really great stuff.
Stevie played well and had 1 goal and 2 assists in the series. But i think he has more to
give and Detroit will need Yzerman on top if they shall be a seriouse contender for the cup.
