It had everything that we expected this series was going to have, and those are the games you love being a part of. This one just goes to show the kind of Org and the kind of guys the Red Wings have and go after: “We’ve always done stuff together as a team since ‘94, ‘95,” said Osgood, who left the Wings in 2001 only to return following the lockout in 2005. “We’ve had a tight-knit group of guys, regardless of who is here, who comes in and out. The core guys we’ve had here for so long invite guys into our group, and we have no cliques. We get along great, and that’s why we play so well on the ice.” http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news;_ylt=ArgL...p&type=lgns Some coaches call on a former teammate or coaching mentor when they need advice.
