Firehawk 305 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Are you guys serious? You expect ANY goalie to stop perfect top corner shots? Gimme an F'n break. Blame the D on the first breakaway, and blame the ref on the second, it wasn't even close, way off side, skate was a foot off the line when the puck crossed.

Bryguy 103 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 4 games in 6 nights out west, you could tell they were out of juice in the 3rd. Sharks have the better legs. Ozzie has been pretty soft tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedArmy 4 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 missed of the game, just saw the last 2 goals.. HOly shiz 6 goals?!? Wings need to ride Conklin until Ozzie gets back on his feet or whatever it is that he needs to do... awful season for Ozzie so far... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Yeah, our defence is getting made a fool of, and there taking Ozzies jockstrap, spitting on it, setting it on fire and throwing it as far up into the stands as possible. The whole defensive scheme is looking terrible tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dekeyuk Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Not Osgood's fault. Two breakaways off crap defense by the Wings. See what I mean? Somehow he is unaware of the other 4 goals. 6 goals Ozzie Homer, Six. Wake the hell up. He lost this game when our offense got four goals on the best team in the west.

thedatsyukian 7 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 6 goals against anyone is pathetic. This is just a really poor performance from a defensive viewpoint, really disappointing that we didn't show up on such an important game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Not Osgood's fault. Two breakaways off crap defense by the Wings. Can you remember the last time he STOPPED a breakaway? Cause, well, goaltenders usually do so once in a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z and D for the C 712 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 I love Oz dearly, but someone needs to light a fire under his a**. When he's going to get every other start regardless of performance from him or conks, there isn't going to be s*** fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadaBoy 151 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 If Conklin starts, Wings win. If Osgood starts, Wings lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungGuns1340 1 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Not Osgood's fault. Two breakaways off crap defense by the Wings. You do know that a goaltender gets paid to make the tough stops right? If the Wings wanted a guy who just stood in front of the net and stopped whatever hit him, they'd be paying Howard half the money to start the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wingsallwin 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Not Osgood's fault. Two breakaways off crap defense by the Wings. This is the difference between Nabby and Ozzie tonight. Nabby made saves on breakaway but Ozzie does not. And Osggod has been terrible this season. Doubtlessly, Conks should start all big games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MississippiWing 14 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 That was just a bad combo. the D broke down. The shot was perfect and Ozzie got beat. I will admit it looks like he made no effort whatsoever and just chalked it up to a breakaway goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcom007 1,465 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 Happy with Osgood or not, and call me crazy, but I just saw two breakaway goals go down. Sure, I'd love to see Osgood stop them too, but what in the hell is wrong with our defense to let that happen twice in a row within minutes of each other. It's pathetic. There's no excuse for how horrible this TEAM is playing on some of these plays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTU_Huskies963 398 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 People keep saying Osgood is playing like crap because of the D, but Conklin has has to play with that same D, and has been shutting out the opposition. I am done defending ozzy, he just does not have it this year. Conklin should have had this start he deserved this big game, and I hope this is the last time Babcock makes this mistake.

MississippiWing 14 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 also can we please get a true enforcer. They are taking the body to us something wicked and it seems like Rafalski is the only one trying to fight back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clutchngrab 12 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 I'm thinkin if Kenny has the balls he trades Franzen for a goalie ths season... Or wings figure Conklin is it here on out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOwl 77 Report post Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) Osgood really is worthless now, can't be traded, and won't get better. 45 games in, hope should be faded. Edited January 18, 2009 by TheOwl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As the season continues I'm starting to doubt that we do have that next gear. The Sharks just showed everyone that they are in fact the best team in the nhl.
