Chris Osgood proves Jimmy Howard should be in goal for Red Wings
clutchngrab replied to Dominator2005's topic in General
Yes, I admit I was wrong last year, but I don't think I am this year. Even last year, you have to admit it was a huge gamble starting him in the post season given his regular season record. There are still a number of people on these boards that believe Osgood should be the starting playoff goaltender based on... I don't know what. I guess ancient history. -

So don't. We'll see soon enough - if Babcock lets him play. -

Yup, I did. And I contend that he was good - not great - and played way beyond expectations. However I think that was an aberation. At some point you have to go by the evidence in front of your face and not on ancient history or wishful thinking. I think that time is now w/ regards to Osgood. -

Whatever it takes to move on. -

clutchngrab replied to Dominator2005's topic in General
Not really. I'm just firmly convinced he's done and does not belong in net anymore. I want to move beyond Chris Osgood as soon as possible. At this point, I think Babcock does as well - but that's speculation. -

Some of you people are really really delusional. -

Notice I said cement the playoff position. I want the wings to succeed and I think they will as long as Osgood is not in net. -
dumb vs. dumber. Lebda is dumber.

Really? You think Osgood is gonna be back? That's pretty funny. My my my you are one delusional puppy. Here are your meds, let me check under your tongue to make sure you've taken them. Only way Oz is back is if Jimmie falls down the stairs, the wings get a gap in the standings or hell freezes over. Not necessarily in that order. My hope is that we cement 6th or 7th so that Oz can prove once and for all how absolutely cooked he is and the debate can be over. -

My point wasn't that these guys were not good goalies, only that the success of goaltender position is a function of the 5 skaters in front of him. I would not put Osgood or Roy or Fuhr in the same league as say Hasek due to the quality of the teams these guys played behind. Cujo, Potvin, Hextall were all great goalies on less than stellar teams that I believe would have been as successful if they played on the same caliber of teams. -
I liked your boy when he was a selke finalist and scored 20 goals once. Now he looks kinda flat.
-
I'm having a good year for my age, but I freely admit I should be waived.
-
Bright spots this year are without a doubt Howard being #1 followed by the emergence of Kronner before injury, Eaves, Bert living to and above expectations, Miller, and Homer after an off year. Flip still improving, and I think thats about it. Not too bad if our stars start scoring and Franzen comes back strong. I'm optimistic.
-
Jimmy will give up the ribby - but that's something a defense can adjust to. JH continues to keep us in every game and steal one by and by. Lets not forget how much he has improved over the course of this year.
-
Yes but you do realize he is overpaid by $32,456 and 34 cents per year.
-
I like him too, but retire as a wing? Uh, that's gotten us into enough trouble with our current over the hill grinders. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I'd settle for a 2- 3 year deal thank you very much.
-
If we are talking about the sharks and the talent they have had, well...um..yeah.
-
Up to now. Though from their perspective tonight it had to be nice to see big bird crashing the net for once.
-
Seriously, though - I'm guessing most shark fans have felt that Nabakov has not played to expectations in the post season. Though one could say that about Thorton, Marleau, etc.
-
Oh that was the year San Jose won the cup by stoning Richards in game 7 of the finals.
-
Agreed, except that one never knows when Lebda, Meech and Rafalski for that matter will metamorphise into s*** bugs on D.

nice photo...what's your point?
