Valtteri Filppula Game 2 Goal Video

Just in case you missed Valtteri Filppula’s amazing goal in Game 2 of these Stanley Cup Finals, I have provided the video below.

One of the reasons that Detroit is so dominant and continues to be a force to rekon with year after year is their ability to get timely scoring from their secondary stars like Filppula.  While superstars like Datsyuk, Lidstrom and Zetterberg garner most of the attention and praise, Detroit’s deep bench continues to quietly churn out goal after goal.  Often, these goals come in key situations and have frequently been game winning goals.  For instance, Kris Draper managed to score the first goal in a “first goal wins series” off of his bearded bottom lip!

You can bet that Detroit will get ample production from their secondary stars in Game 3, it’s just a matter of who will step up and get the job done!
