The Red Wings put the first goal in about half way through the first period.  In the final minutes of the first period, Ruslan Fedotenko tied up the game.  It wasn't until the final minute of the second period when Detroit took the lead again.  About three minutes into the third period, the Red Wings added another, ending the game at 3-1.  

Marc-Andre Fleury played a tough first game against the Red Wings.  Overall, he made 27 saves.  The Penguins offense took 32 shots on the Red Wings goalie.

The Pittsburgh Penguins will play the Detroit Red Wings in Game 2 this Sunday, May 31 at 8:00 Eastern Time.  This game will also take place in Detroit, but then the following two games will be in Pittsburgh.

The Hurricanes came out strong at the beginning of this game, determined not to get swept.  They put a goal in during the first two minutes of play; however, this would end up being the only goal they would put in all game.  Ruslan Fedotenko tied it up a few minutes later followed by a goal from Maxime Talbot in the final two minutes of the first period, putting the Penguins ahead.  Bill Guerin tapped in a goal from an outstanding pass from Sidney Crosby.  Pittsburgh held Carolina off for the rest of the game, adding one more from Craig Adams into an empty net.  The Penguins took the series from this 4-1 win.

Marc-Andre Fleury was definitely the savior of this game.  Fleury made some absolutely amazing saves, giving his team the opportunity to sweep the Hurricanes.  Overall, Fleury made 30 saves and only let one shot get past him.  Now Fleury will really get to display his skills in the Stanley Cup.

The Penguins get a few days to rest while they wait for the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings to finish up their series.  Currently, the Red Wings lead 3-1.  The Penguins lost to the Red Wings in the Stanley Cup last year.
