How 'bout "never underestimate the heart of a hungry team" or "never underestimate the revenge factor" or "never underestimate fresh legs on a hungry team with a revenge factor"?
If Detroit had the heart of a champion, they wouldn't be 10-14 right now and probably out of the playoffs.
How 'bout "Never underestimate the lack of motivation for a team that has already won 3 rings in 6 years, who lost their legendary coach, is almost out of the playoff hunt, has tired legs and is playing the back end of a back-to-back against a hungry team with a keen revenge factor?"
That one I might trust. My money is on the Stars.
