Anderson, Duchene Shut Down Canucks, 3-0

• Anderson was very good today.  Isn't amazing what good goaltending does for a team? 
• There was a noticeable drop in energy level from Sakic night to today's game, however, the team played a sounder, smarter game. 
• Sorry Brampton Battalion fans, there is absolutely NO WAY that Duchene is being sent back to the OHL this season.
• Duchene was the best skater on the ice by a clear margin.  He was named 3rd star of the game without scoring a point.  And he's a forward.  
• Someone should tell Vancouver that they don't get extra points for pretty goals.
• These players are playing great hockey: Anderson, Stastny, Wolski, Quincey, Duchene.
• Cumiskey looked much more conformable today, but I'm still worried he's going to get exposed on the road trip.
• O'Reilly looked out of place today.  Erie - he'll be back soon.  
• Could have Tucker actually turned his game around?  Two goals in two games.  Still taking too many penalties. 
• Want more good news?  Detroit has gone 0-2-0 in Sweden against St. Louis - blowing 2 goal leads in both games.
