This is real sad looking at the shots on goal. Pittsburgh... 29. Detroit... Not enough. Without Howard, this game would be real ugly.

f***! Nothing Howie could do about that... but why was he all alone?! Where was the D?

Hmm... probably shouldn't be mentioning anything about this after a win, but I wonder what Osgood will say to the press after recieving a shot like this... A season-ticket holder interviewed during a second-period break took a shot at benched goalie Chris Osgood, saying in an interview that was broadcasted to the crowd, "It's so good to have a goalie again." The stunned crowd started booing and broke into an "Oz-zie! Oz-zie!" chant. Either way great win by the Wings tonight and now to see if they can continue it against Pittsburgh.

46 saves for Howard tonight. Seems like when he's in there it's target practice. Other than that I'll take these two points and 8th place in the West.

Yeah maybe when we're in the final stretch of the season and have clinched a playoff berth... The way I see it is that Ozzie would possibly play again Sunday at Pittsburgh or on a later date sometime during the back-to-back with San Jose and Anaheim in the first week of February. Other than that Howard will be getting similar stretches of where he'll start 5-6 consecutive games, unless he hits a little bit of a rut. Looking at stats between the two, another reason why Howard's the #1 IMO. J. Howard 18-11-5 .924 Sv% 2.30 GAA C. Osgood 7-8-4 .891 Sv% 2.94 GAA Ozzie's looking at 3.00 again this year. But that doesn't mean he can't turn it around.

The bad... 3 goals on 6 shots for Minnesota. The good... 2 goals both by Pavel.

f***! At this point I'm tired of seeing this on a nightly basis.

What the f***? Another 2 goal lead blown. Figures. And another 3-point game. Oh great.

Thank you Nick. 2 goal lead and gets this one on the powerplay.

Nick! On a backhand too.

Eaves!

And now to get one on the powerplay.

Eaves!

Classic Wings goal right there. Now give us about nine more please.

At least Howard is getting some things that Ozzie isn't. WINS and POINTS. Now all we need is LA to lose and 8th place is our.

Considering back-to-back 65 minute games + the shootouts really looked like it took it's toll on J-Ho. Bert's goal in the shootout was sick as was Pavel's. What really impressed me was how the Wings' bounced back from being down 2-0 rather than losing their composure.

Why not 5 min 4-on-4. Then 5 min 3-on-3. They're bound to score then. Great game. We got the Caps next so maybe we'll see Ozzie. Unless Babs goes with Howie... but IMO he looked exhausted today.

I honestly muted it. Especially after Kane's "BOOM!" EAVES!

Nice save Jimmy. Gotta keep us close, can't afford to go down 2. Or let Hossa score.
