Detroit, MI (My Sportsbook) - Marty Turco made 38 saves, including 12 in the
third period, as the Dallas Stars staved off elimination again with a 2-1 win
over the Detroit Red Wings in Game 5 of the Western Conference finals at Joe
Louis Arena. Trevor Daley and Joel Lundqvist scored for Dallas, which trails
the best-of-seven series, 3-2. Turco has endured hard times at Joe Louis
Arena throughout his career, entering play with a mark of 0-9 (with two
ties), but the product of the University of Michigan was stellar between the
pipes in this game. Turco also had an assist in the contest. Jiri Hudler
provided the offense for Detroit, which suffered its first loss at
home in the playoffs (7-1). Chris Osgood allowed two goals on 21 shots
in defeat. Game 6 is scheduled for Monday night in Dallas.
