Just think of the '08 Devils... and the '08 Red Wings.. it helps !!

If a mule was on top of me like that... I'd probably look the same... CLASSIC !!

I liked his white jacket with the flowers though...

You're dead, Messier! We're gonna get you, Messier!

I agree. Ozzie sold the Ribiero slash, no argument there. But let's be fair... we're talking about the Stanley Cup here and in the heat of the moment things happen. About game 2: The hit on Ozzie wasn't hard at all, but if you watch closely you'll see that Ozzie lost his balance more than anything, he fell on the side of the net and then on the ice. He got up immediately, so it's not like he was faking an injury by staying on his back or something. This was not a dive, nor was it embellished.

Therrien is just frustrated. And that's okay. What's not okay is the fact that he, as a coach, should have the ability to stay even-keeled and diplomatic.

You only got shut out twice in row... so you're right Sidney, it's really no big deal. It's just the Stanley Cup finals, that's all... I think Kidney is a better name, but that would be an insult to all the people who are on dialisys.,.

of course it's just a fantasy predicition, but it's a fun read. And Ozzie gets to be the Conn Smythe winner.. Stanley Cup Finals Preview

Not bad actually..

hmmm... didn't know that. Always thought he went away because they wanted to make Ozzie their number 1.

The Detnews article is well written. About the CBS-article: I find it hard to believe Mike Vernon left the Red Wings because of a contract dispute.. Is this true ????

Al Sobotka should get one !!!!

If Detroit can sweep the Pens or win 4-1 and Ozzie can maintain the same GAA and SV% numbers, I thinkhe has a really good shot at the Conn Smythe.

This is creepy... I'm curious what will happen in game two..

It would be awesome to have him ready for Game 1. I hope the medical staff gives him the OK !

No, I actually took it pretty well..

If someone said in a month ago Johan Franzen would be the main contributor with 9 goals in a second round sweep over the Avalanche you probably would have stopped reading too....

14 goals in 70 regular season games, 2 goals in the 12 playoff games. IMO, he was done a year ago and he's still done. The fact that he 'earned' a million-dollar contract is hilarious.

Not bad.. not bad.. But you should end with the word BACKUP, otherwise it makes little sense why Marty said it..

Good Lord..... mote than 100 posts about what Marty Turco might have said to Ozzie, all because we hard to word backup.. and the fact Marty Turco wasn't all laughs and smiles after he lost the WCF... go figure.. Ozzie: " Hey Marty, well played buddy... why the long face ?" Turco: " Yeah... well... Johan Holmqvist lost my Desperate Housewives DVD season 2.. " Ozzie: " Holmqvist ? Who's he ? " Turco: " He's my backup ". See how easy it is the misinterpret an innocent conversation...

hey, I'm confident too, but Wings in 4 is really optimistic .. I'll take it though.

Very tough question. even more because as a whole the Wings are playing really well. That makes it all the more unfair to point someone as a MVP. I'm sure the players won't care fot that trophy at all. All they want is the Stanley Cup. That why you never see a player hoist the Conn Smythe up in the air and show it the crowd.... it's just not that important.

Did you now Crosby plays in a band called Crosby, Stills & Nashville ?

I'm sure Matt will make an appropiate one. Be patient.
