The Red Wings will be going for their fourth championship since 1997 and 11th overall in the franchise's 82-year history.

Stephane Robidas scored the lone goal for the Stars. Dallas goalie Marty Turco allowed four goals on 29 shots.

Detroit won the first three games of the best-of-seven series before Dallas won two.
