HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) He was fantabulous and I loved it. It was the best he's been all season. He looked really confident and comfortable out there and was quick and sharp. He's still got a hell of a lot more in him though. GO OZZIE!!!!!!!!

cusimano_brothers 1,655 Report post Posted January 6, 2009 It's now down to 2.90 after last night's game. I have been tracking this on a spreadsheet. It is now at it's lowest point since game 7. Things are looking up... My database says the figure is 2.92. My calculator says that 111/38=2.921052631. I remember a TV piece done a few years ago on Osgood. It dealt with how he overcame the stigma, wrongly heaped on him, for the errant clearing attempt in Game #7 vs. San Jose in the QF. He said one the best things that happened to him was when Detroit aquired Mike Vernon. Vernon's demeanor was such that following a game, you couldn't tell if he had won or lost. And he made Osgood aware that if he was going to succeed, he was going to have to learn how to do this; that he had to believe in himself. Then it was the belief of too many fans that a Cup with Osgood as the main goalie goal impossible. He proved them wrong in 1998 and, to the remaining naysayers, he proved them wrong again in 2008. "Ozzie" is still fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
