My heart is filled with infinite sadness right now, as gokor knocks me out of the tourney in 3 games.
We were still feeling each other out in Game 1. Things were pretty even most of the way, with DET finally getting one in at the end for a 1-0 victory:

Game 2 looked like it was going to get out of hand early, as DET took a fairly quick 2-0 lead on a Nik Lidstrom blast from the point and a Kirk Maltby shorthanded goal. However, SJ fought back (even converting on a Penalty Shot!) and triumphed 5-2 on the road. Failure to capitalize on the PP really cost me...

Finally, the decisive Game 3. It looked like it would be similar to Game 1: hard-fought and evenly matched. It was just that. 0-0 through 2 periods, but then the floodgates opened in the 3rd. DET kept answering for every SJ goal. DET was given every opportunity to win in late in the game, getting PP after PP chance, but SJ pulled through and moved on to the next round:
