If Chris feels good, Babcock must play him. Regardsless of tonight's result. Play him 5/6 times in a row. A goalie can't build confidence on 1 or 2 games a week. It's obvious Holland and Babcock see Ozzie as their starter for the playoffs, despite the fact he has been less than stellar and Conklin has been well above average. If Ozzie is their starter, let him get into a groove.

Brian Boucher Jean-Sebastien Giguere Ian Laperriere Mark Recchi I'm sure all four of them are basically nice guys, but it's just so easy to hate them... I can't help it...

True, there is no magical assumption or a magical remedy. All I can do, and we should all I think, is have faith in Ozzie and believe he will do everything in his power to turns things around. BELIEVE, remember ?

And if we had Roberto Luongo in goal we would have won 4-1. With Tim Thomas it would have been 3-1. If Terry Sawchuk was in goal last night we would have had a shutout for sure. And of course, with Ozzie in goal he would have been shelled 6-1 and pulled after only one period. Where did you buy your crystal ball ? I got it as a parting gift from my mental hospital when last summer after 4 years...

Howard has been in inconsistent the last 4 years. Yet still, every time his name is mentioned he's been called the goalie of the future in one breath. He's a talented goaltender, no doubt about it. But isn't it time to leave that label behind and to cash in on that talent ? That's just not happening and to be honest, I don't see that happen in the future either. I don't think Jimmy Howard is DRW's big future in goaltending.

Not true, because those saves were actually Hasek way of a conscious effort to keep the puck out of the net. And don't tell me you didn't know that... come on.

That's not a save. A save is a concious effort to keep the puck out of the net. His left leg went up as he was going down and the puck hit his pad. That's what happened.

The best save I've seen in the past 5 years is still Sebastien Caron's in 2005 (Pens vs. Flyers)

But Larry Murphy will ? The man played a mere 5 seasons for the Wings..

Not in a million years.. Goalie (Ozzie..) threads are LGW's lifeline..

Same here.... I'm sorry Mr. Illitch..

Sergei Federov Steve Yzerman Gordie Howe Ted Lindsay taxi squad: Sawchuk, Delvecchio, Osgood, Lidstrom

Maybe we could ask Michael Shtalenkov to come out of retirement. Better chance than Marty Brodeur...

Cam "Jim Carey" Ward ?

The truth is Ozzie is struggling. There's no denying that. The truth is also that I support Ozzie as someone who would give his left arm to be a Red Wing. I understand emotions run high on nights / games like this, but some posts are quite absurd. The "truth" is in the eye of the beholder I gues...

No, we won't.

Nice Ozzie. Keep it together buddy !

You're one dumb f***.

so so so true. Well said !

The '93 Sharks were fun to watch... But the greatest team ? The Canadiens in the '76 and '77 seasons and let's not forget the Oilers in '84.

Here we go !!
