Detroit ? Hockeytown is halfway to hoisting the Stanley Cup again.

With first-period goals from Brad Stuart and Tomas Holmstrom and another lockdown defensive effort, the Detroit Red Wings beat the Pittsburgh Penguins, 3-0, to take a 2-0 lead in the Stanley Cup finals on Monday night.

The puck-possessing Red Wings held onto it again all night and registered 34 shots.

They put the clamps on the Penguins, who have yet to score in the finals.

After a 19-save effort in a 4-0 series-opening win Saturday, Chris Osgood stopped 22 shots in a rocking-chair game and earned his third shutout of the playoffs – 13th in his career.

The often-overlooked Osgood owns the Red Wings record with 50 postseason victories, ahead of Hall of Famer Terry Sawchuk, and is closing in on his third Cup with Detroit – two as the starting netminder.
