Detroit coach Mike Babcock seems to be getting a little impatient with Johan Franzen's lack of production.
The Mule has yet to score in four playoff games and he has not been particularly dangerous in the Bruins' zone. "He's got to get himself going, just like all of us," Babcock said. "Obviously, we've talked to him, tried to put him in the best situations to be successful, but like every guy on your team, collectively as a group and individually, we haven't had our best. So you got to find a way to get more. That's your obligation to your teammates and to yourself. You ask yourself, 'Am I playing at the level I'm capable of playing?' And if you're not, then we need more." Sounds like Babcock is almost pleading with Franzen to give a better effort.
