Alex the magnificint!

I'm happy we could amuse you from across the pond.

Had that play happened to a certain team in Red and White, the number of posts would be doubled by now!

I posted a rumor regarding the possibility of Sabre's netminder Ryan Miller wanting to come to Detroit after the '08-'09 season as an u.f.a. The idea was that he would be the primary in a Miller-Howard tandem with Ozzie as the odd man out and designated to be trade bait. Two months and some amazing goaltending by Osgood later, would it make more sense for Detroit and Buffalo to make a deal this summer involving Howard and Miller? Buffalo gets a young, proven, less expensive goaltender for a rebuild project. Detroit gets a Miller-Osgood tandem for years to come. The Wings window of opportunity might dictate that their best opportunity to win cups with an experienced defense corp is the next two years. Miller going against counterparts in Calgary, San Jose, Anaheim, and now possibly Nashville might be a better answer. Thoughts?

Very true. Though I'd hate to see Miller play "lights out" next year, tell Buffalo to shove off, and have nearly all our Western Confrence rivals without a top six goaltender throwing gobs of cash at him when we could have him at a relatively cheaper cost this summer with a hometown discount. ....then again, he could really suck next year. Kenny will make the right move, he usually does.

It will be interesting re-visiting this topic on a series to series basis. Fair or not...I think Osgood is playing for his job as the Wings goaltender. He has a history of sub-par or average performances that didn't get it done. The one time he was the Cup winning goaltender, it was "in spite of Osgood, not because of him". Personally, I would love to see him take this team on his back and carry them to the promised land. No one could say the Cup was gained despite him. That being said, Ozzie is one poor series away from being trade bait.

It will be a good Flames/Sharks GDT I'm sure.

Great job Dallas! I'm glad their San Jose's or Colorodo's problem for the time being!

There will be a new cup champion!

Who woke up the Stars? They took a page out of the Preds playbook!

Lidstrom interview on Vs. Nice to say the team still has confidence in Hasek.

It's one thing to seek vengence, another to carry it out. The Preds have been looking for vengence for years, from two different series and its gotten them squat. Send the Sharks golfing and bring on Calgary!

Just shows what happens when a team loses defensive intensity. The '04 version of the Pistons might only score 14 points in a quarter, but they made damn sure the other team would only score 14 or 13! Saunders brought offensive respectability, but the team lost its soul!
