Red Wings Disappointed With Schedule

ESPN - The Red Wings aren't happy with the schedule of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Detroit will have just two full days to recharge before starting their series Saturday against Pittsburgh, their opponent in last year's championship triumph.

"We're not happy, I have to be honest," Wings general manager Ken Holland said Thursday. "We're disappointed that we haven't had an extra day's rest. It's a double-whammy, the quick turnaround and back-to-back games [to open the finals]. We're disappointed because we think when you win a series in five games or less, that you have earned an opportunity to have a few more days of rest.

"But at the same time, we understand and we're not going to dwell on it. Because we don't want to lose our focus with the job at hand. It is what it is. Let's play." [READ]
