Shaved Ice – April 23

Red Wings win. Will it matter, though?

The Detroit Red Wings picked up a crucial win over Phoenix last night, shutting out the Coyotes at Joe Louis Arena. Here’s our recap from the big game. The win moves the Wings within a point of No. 8 Columbus, and the Red Wings have one more game left on the schedule than the Blue Jackets do. After a break today, the Wings have back-to-back home games Wednesday and Thursday, then a showdown in Dallas to conclude the regular season.

What do you think, will the Red Wings preserve their historic playoff streak?
