  1. Bill Weston from Grand Rapids, MI, United States writes: Has anyone actually heard whats wrong with him other than this post concussion thing?

    Hope he's back for the finals.
  2. Gordon Howe from HockeyTown, United States writes: I heard it was a post concussion thing, but don't know how it happened.
  3. Bill Weston from Grand Rapids, MI, United States writes: No one seems to know. Babcock says he never knew Franzen even had a cuncussion. Franzen says he has no idea when it happened, where it happened, or what happened that caused it.

    Glad he's back skating though.
  4. Montgomery C. Burns from Springfield, Canada writes: No need to rush Franzen back. The Wings have won without him and should win on Saturday. They'll have a few days off before the Finals and hopefully he'll be able to rejoin them for game 1 or 2.
  5. Gogh Forit from Canada writes: Detroit should be able to finish it on Saturday but not if they play the way they did last night. While I still believe that the Wings will take the series, Dallas looked like the team that upset both the Ducks and the Sharks and this could snowball into a game six. Should that happen the Red Wings will not get the rest that their older on average players need to recouperate to be fresh for the finals.
  6. John - from BC Interior, Canada writes: I think the Stars can play better than they did in Game 4. If they do, they have a chance to win Game 5 as well. The more prolonged this series is, the happier I'll be. I didn't get to see the first half of Game 4, but Dallas certainly looked better than they did in the previous games.

    I still think the Stars were capable of winning this series, but they really dug themselves into a big hole in the first three games. I just can't fathom them winning four games in a row against Detroit, but winning Game 5 would certainly change the tone of this series.
