Grand Rapids — Hockeytown West is probably still celebrating.
The Grand Rapids Griffins — the Red Wings’ minor league affiliate — won their second American Hockey League Calder Cup in five years Tuesday with an exciting 4-3 victory over Syracuse.
The Griffins won the best-of-seven series 4-2 — just as they did over Syracuse in 2013.
Martin Frk broke a 3-3 tie with his fifth goal of the playoffs at 12 minutes, 41 seconds.
Frk’s shot from just inside the blue line got past screened goalie Mike McKenna, sending the sellout crowd of 10,834 into pure joy.
