Red Wings' Franzen out for Game 2
Posted: Sat May 10 7:18 PM
Detroit, MI (Sports Network) - Detroit Red Wings forward Johan Franzen was scratched from the lineup for Game 2's 2-1 victory over the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference finals because of concussion-like symptoms.
The team said he will not play until he has more tests, which are scheduled for Monday, and an evaluation is completed. He will likely miss Game 3 in Dallas on Monday.
Franzen has a league-high and franchise-record 12 goals in the postseason. He is the first player to score 12 playoff goals since Rob Brind’Amour for Carolina in 2006. Five of his goals have been game-winners while he has also added three assists.
Detroit leads the best-of-seven series, 2-0, with Game 3 set for Monday in Dallas.
