GLENDALE, AZ (AP) --
      GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) - While on their way to 50 wins and their
first playoff berth since 2002, the Phoenix Coyotes were labeled a
feel-good story and Cinderella.
      They believe a Game 7 win Tuesday will show they're much more.
      The Detroit Red Wings are trying to avoid a second straight
series loss after holding a 3-2 lead and to stay alive for a third
straight trip to the Stanley Cup finals.
      Phoenix is hosting the first Game 7 of these NHL playoffs, but
home ice hasn't meant much in this series. The road team has won
four of the six games so far.
      Whichever team advances will finally end an undesirable streak.
      The Coyotes are 0-4 in Game 7s.
      The Red Wings haven't won a Game 7 on the road since 1964.
