    You do realize Howard is 8th in GAA and 5th in SV% right? Not to mention he is winning games. One bad game happens, he's the future and he's playing well. There is no reason to change things up.

    According to LGW, 90% of the players in the NHL are bad. You aren't even considered good unless you can score 40+ goals and be a selke winner

    The team had enough offensive firepower last year to overcome Ozzie's poor regular season play. That luxury doesn't exist this year.

    This is a joke, right?

    No he shouldn't. Part of the problem is that he's been asked to be Lilja this year. Ericsson's not a stay at home defenseman. He's a mobile, puck moving d-man who plays the point on the PP. The Wings have asked him to play a role that's completely different from the one he played and thrived in at the AHL level. Earlier in the year he was scoring and at one point led the Wings' defense in points. He was confident and was able to play good defense for a rookie. Then s*** fell apart for him and he wasn't putting up points or playing passable defense. Once the points start coming for Ericsson so will the defense. He needs to get back to playing his game and stop trying to be a player he isn't-- Lilja. E isn't going to throw tons of hits and shut guys down with his size alone. He needs to go back to playing the game that made him an all-star at the AHL level.

    Ozzie Disgruntled ?

    I'd like to believe that and all but even when Oz strung together wins and started playing well, Babs continually started Howard. I don't have a problem with Howie at all and Babcock is great but his way of handling goaltending boggles my mind. And you simply can't play better if you are not playing.

    Update: Stick and gloves still missing. Jockstrap found in the bed of someone still unidentified, but referred to by an anonymous source as "Harry Fettman". The NHL is investigating. If they find the stuff, how would they be able to authenticate that it was his stick and gloves from that game? Just curious. I've always wondered that with game pucks and that sort of thing.

    Wait, that's not fair. Bettman shouldn't be eligible to collect the reward.

    Ozzie Disgruntled ?

    These guys are professionals. They aren't going to show anything, and probably not do anything, to mess up chemistry or stuff in the locker room or whatever. This isn't like the 3-ring goalie circus of Hasek and Joseph and Legace in 2005/06. In 2008 this was dead similar to what happened to Hasek when he got the ax and Osgood came in for the playoffs. Of course Hasek was frustrated, stated he wanted to keep playing, but was going to do what was best for the team. Again, there is nothing to read into regarding this.

    Even if you would score 40+ goals you could still be accused of murdering and even if you would win that Selke you would still be just another Soft Euro™.

    Cooke hits Savard

    I've heard it said that a fan of two competing teams is a true fan of neither. What's your opinion?

    Cooke hits Savard

    Suspend that f*****. Btw jolly,I've notice the sound on many of your vids is very low. Not a big deal but just thought I'd mention it.

    Ozzie Disgruntled ?

    Osgood just wants to play. Nothing wrong with that. However he's not going to let his wanting to play mess up team chemistry or creating any goaltending drama. He's stated plenty of times more/less that while he wishes/wants to play more, he supports Howard, is happy for him, and will do what's best for the team. Nothing really worth reading into regarding this. Move along...

    Ozzie Disgruntled ?

    Osgood has said on several occasions that he has no hard feelings about sitting on the bench. Don't read to much into the situation. Furthermore, Babcock has stated that Ozzie is the reason Jimmy has been playing so well. Ozzie is constantly coaching and supporting Howard during practice. Freep- "I've played a ton of games, and sure, I still want to play," Osgood said Saturday, before the Wings departed for Pittsburgh. "But I owe it to Howie and the team. It's kind of like the past reclaims itself. We've not totally switched roles, but I had guys -- Mike Vernon, Tim Cheveldae, Vincent Riendeau -- who helped me. There's no way I could've been here by myself, without the older guys' help. It'd be selfish of me to act any other way." (i couldn't find the vid, but i specifically remember an interview with Babs where he said that Osgood was really supportive and helpful with Howard during practice)

    It was a horrible hit, and Cooke deserves to be suspended. No excuses.

    Sounds like a good game by the Red Wings. Couldn't watch it though but I wish I did. Anyone know a way to watch it?

    Probably San Jose. Nabokov hasn't been great in big games, but he's better than either of Chicago's goalies. If the Wings won't make it in, I'm rooting for Phoenix all the way.

    Before the game started I was thinking to myself what is the worst possible outcome for the Hawks in this game. A key injury? Maybe but they are very deep and losing a Kane or Toews though it would hurt would IMO not be the end of the world. Getting blown out by Detroit. Not so much, they would just look at it as 1 game and move on. Then I realizedzed that the WORST thing that could happen to Chicago in this game was for Huet to really suck. Because then it plants doubt in everyones minds. - players, fans, coaches. And that my friends is exactly what happened. Even the NBC idiots realize now that Chicago has a real goaltending issue and it may cost them a chance at the Cup. Today was a good day.... And I didn't hear any "Detroit Sucks" chants. Hmmm wonder why...LOL

    I'm so sick of these threads. How many of them do we need? The Wings are not going to fire Babcock and the Wings do not play in the joke that they call the East. The Wings will make the playoffs, but they will not be a 4 seed.
