BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Wow, what kind of overpriced BS is that? I kid, I kid... Good signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
interminded 1 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) This is awesome awesome awesome news !!!! Ozzie will be a Red Wing for three more years and he will retire here !! And he'll definately get a shot at the 400 win mark. 1.5 a season is still a bargain for a class guy and a premier goaltender that Ozzie is. Just great news !

dustin35 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 I could of sowrn earlier this season he said he wanted to play 5 more years. prolly could only get the contract for 3 years and then will resign again after that for 2 more. 38 would be to early for him to retire. 40 sounds good for the great oz.

Opie 308 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 I said it long ago, and I will repeat it now, IF J-ho is to be the future of the wings in net who better to have as his mentor. Who better to sit along side of for the start of his NHL career, and who better to be there for the wings if the J-Ho project goes down the crapper. When Ozzie was first re-signed with the wings I thought it was a horrible Idea, I like my crow bbqed!! Quoted myself to save typing!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnyoski 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 An awesome deal for both sides! I just hope the deal doesn't make him complacent. Look at the dividends his offseason conditioning is paying this season. Keep it up Ozzie! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Turkey 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 If Ozzy continues to play at the high level he's shown us so far this season this deal is going to look like a real bargain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puckloo39 5,686 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Good for Ozzie, and a great deal for the Wings. This comes as no surprise to most, but nevertheless, good news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Earthhuman 8 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Good move Ozzie. I guess he likes Zetterberg playing in front of him. Right now, he's a $4-5 million goalie, and over the next three years probably about $3.5 million. What a great deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wingswillwincup Report post Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) i think hes way overrated and the fact that he plays for the wings is what is helping his numbers ... that being said hes still doing his job , and for just under 1.5 million a year i think is a good number ..... i just hope that doesnt get in the way of howard becoming the man ....howard and ozzie should split games next year , and howard the official starter in 09-10 that being said i think were a lucky organization to have players that actually wanna stay here and are willing to take less money to stay to keep us competitive ......... lidstrom,draper,chelios,osgood,holmstrom all took paycuts , find me another team to have that many guys take cuts on their paycheck to stick around Edited January 9, 2008 by wingswillwincup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
