    2/6 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Kings 4

    I love how people compare pre-cap teams to post cap teams as if there is any relevance. Let's just throw out the fact that this team is two seasons removed from a Cup and one season removed from a Cup appearance. The dynamic has changed. This is now a cap compliant team. It shows. Enjoy it.

    Leino to Flyers for Tollefsen and a 5th Rounder

    Awesome quote from the Flyers board: So glad that lump of s*** is gone.

    Thoughts on the Four Minute High Sticking Penalties

    It is odd to hope for blood... but I do it all the time.

    Kronwall out against Kings

    It's been official for a long time. At least as far as I'm concerned.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    Osgood is old Doc. It's not unrealistic to be convinced that he's done. I'd be right on board with you if Osgood was in his prime. Not only has he not shown any sign of world class caliber goaltending this season, he's shown bitterness and/or frustration when addressing the media. You can't expect everyone to just blindly have faith in him.

    Goalies are a completely different breed of athlete. Pardon me if I don't indulge in comparing apples to oranges.

    Kovalchuk traded to New Jersey

    Congrats to the Devils.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    That's the fun thing about Doc Holliday... if you argue with him long enough, he eventually starts arguing with himself and starts making points for you. It's silly goodness.

    This response makes no sense...

    It's RIGGED

    It's getting stupid now. He blatantly pulled his hand off the stick in order to make contact with the puck. He was rewarded with a goal because he was too slow to effectively batt the puck before it got to his hand. NHL officiating is in the toilet big time.

    2/3 GDT: Red Wings 1 at Ducks 3

    Maybe if Ozzie was in net.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    It's just nice to have a goalie that doesn't make me cringe on every shot. I might cringe on a rebound or five, but at least I'm not cringing on the initial shot... which is a step in the right direction.

    Hitchcock fired

    Fire McCrimmon, hire Hitch.

    Hitchcock fired

    Well, at least the hot dog vendor doesn't have to worry about walking too close to the bench anymore.

    lol This may be the first time I've heard anyone directly blame the coach because the back-up goaltender looks like s***. Genius.

    Something Different

    ??? Replace a great old guy with a really good old guy? Why?

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    I'm still not clear on how any of this has any bearing on my opinion that Osgood looks bad and weak in net. I can't help it if my opinion of Osgood doesn't count as substance in your opinion. And I can't help it that Babcock also happens to think that Howard gives the team the best chance to win. I agree with his quote... regardless of how you intend to spin it.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    People have been suggesting that Osgood was finished long before the Minnesota game. That game was just another straw.

    Nobody ever accused Babcock of being a liar. Do you have a point? Just curious.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    Are you kidding? Block you? And miss watching you stumble around the forum looking for an argument like a dog sniffing butts? It would be like turning off a bad episode of Jerry Springer. You know you shouldn't be watching, but you just... can't... help... it...

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    Doc... I'd rather watch paint dry. Amusing you with pointless arguments is not a high priority (your petty attacks on typos pretty much sum up what you are about). I've already stated in my previous post that your opinion means nothing to me. Why waste your time? Babcock has already been quoted: "If we need a win tomorrow... Howard is in net" Good enough for me.

    Babcock interview on 590

    Glad to hear Babcock also confirm that Osgood is mentoring Howard properly. I couldn't imagine Osgood doing otherwise, but its nice to hear.

    The official pole... lol.

    Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings

    I come to my own conclusions based on what I see and hear. Weather or not you agree is irrelevant. Doesn't mean I don't think Osgood looks like s*** every time he plays. Again... your agreement is irrelevant. Zetterberg hasn't whined to the press. And that's just one tiny fragment of an utterly failed comparison. Try again.
