As the Red Wings worked to extend the season beyond the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs against San Jose, fans gathered at their favorite watering holes in Royal Oak to take in the action.

From the BlackFinn to Mr. B's and O'Tooles, fans cheered, gasped and whetted their appetities and thirst for a Red Wing win. Unfortunately, the Wings fell to the Sharks 3-2.
