Pronovost, a native of Lac la Tortue, Quebec, made his debut for the Red Wings in the 1949-50 playoffs. He soon became a fixture on the Detroit blue line.
The Red Wings have handled the higher level of physicality better than the Lightning, and Tampa Bay needs to match that grit to score.
"Ok, if you're trying to get out the "coach is whining for penalties" that's not it at all. It's the playoffs, this stuff happens" Cooper said.
"The old saying is, 'If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying,'" Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said. "They do it to a 'T.'"
Petr Mrazek stopped 28 shots and the Detroit Red Wings rebounded from a disappointing loss to shut down the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-0 on Saturday night and take a 3-2 series lead.

The home crowd, of course, loved Abdelkader's defense of his teammate, and proud chants of "Abby! Abby! Abby! Abby!" filled the arena.

Babcock suggested grit, not talent, will take the Red Wings further in the playoffs.
"I mean I just watched the guys play, and I just thought that Mrazek would give us the best way to start the series."
Seven players made donations based on personal statistics achieved over the course of the season, generating a total donation of $24,975 to seven Metro Detroit-based nonprofits.
I'm pretty sure that's a cheep shot from the Lightning's Ryan Callahan on the Red Wings' Darren Helm.
Steve Yzerman concedes it feels odd to be facing the Detroit Red Wings in the opening round of the playoffs.
"It's not going to be easy," Detroit forward Darren Helm said of the upcoming series against Tampa Bay, "but that's the fun part of it."
If Tampa is so great why are they blocking non-Florida residents from coming to their games? Are they scared?
Mike Babcock is in the final year of his contract, Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk aren't getting any younger — and Detroit has not advanced past the second round of the playoffs since 2009.
Howard would not speculate what Babcock's decision to go with Mrazek for the first game of the playoffs means for his future in Detroit.
The upcoming playoffs could be the last for Mike Babcock as head coach of the Detroit Red Wings.
