2/15 GDT: Avalanche 6, Red Wings 5 (SO)

[ShanahanMan 473]

OT that should not have been.

Manny Legacy is proof

Proof of what? That the back-up can't win a cup? Just like Ozzie did last season? Like Cam Ward did in '06?

[interminded 1]

At least better than Osgood is in the net. Realize the truth.

The truth is Ozzie is struggling. There's no denying that.

The truth is also that I support Ozzie as someone who would give his left arm to be a Red Wing.

I understand emotions run high on nights / games like this, but some posts are quite absurd.

The "truth" is in the eye of the beholder I gues...

Avs getting away with a ton of penalties at the end.

[marcaractac 3,963]

well babs already tried benching ozzie for a few games and let conks play. that didnt work. id say they should waive ozzie, send him to GR, call up howard. if that doesnt send a message to ozzie and force him to earn his spot back, nothing will.

i do think howard deserves a chance though. and with ozzie playing the way he is playing, id say now would be a good time to do it.

At the beginning of the season when people criticized Ozzie's play, everyone here was just like "Oh it wil be okay. It's only November. I'ts not even close to playoffs yet. I'll start worrying when it's March."

Well guess what month it is two weeks from today.

[RusDRW 155]

at least we've got one point out of this farce...

[Yak19 303]

Our offensive effort deserves a win here, come on boys pull it out.

GO WINGS!!!!!!!!!!!

[YoungGuns1340 1]

Darn. I look like a jackass because I don't want to listen to the goalie-whining from the rest of the jackasses here.

What should I ever do? The answer isn't "leave" either....

Whining about others are whining is no better.

hossa hat trick

You're either not watching the game or simply not the smartest Red Wings fan, but that's okay, it appears that you have lots company.

You're right, anyone critical of osgood's league worst (this year) performance is obviously stupid. I'm sure you could put Luongo or Brodeur or even miller or nabokov in osgood's place and they'd have the worst stats in the league as well.

smart fan or not, who cares. Then, do you trust Osgood this season? Can you really trust that we will be able to win by scoring only 2 or 3 when Osgood is in the net?

[PenaltyShot 96 521]

one user is making his move as we speak , I really hope it works out!

I'm happy for you Although since you're also from Slovakia, I can only assume you know Hossa personally

[Guest DetroitBoy313]

Its not panic its just time for Conklin.

It's not panic? I'm sorry but it's the defense as well as Osgood.If you notice teams bring it EVERY f***in night against the Red Wings! You just gotta match intensity which they are having a hard time doing this year.We are 2nd in the league in ONE goal games,who would of thought? Sometimes it's not about the better defense or offense,it's heart and hustle! Not shying away from the big hits,you have to want to MURDER the other team (not literally of course).I guess this is the "cup hangover" everyone mentioned.

I don't know what all of you are talking about. Ozzie is the best goalie in the game today. Almost all of the goals this season have not been his fault. He still has the best glove in the game..

[puckloo39 5,686]

There's a reason he's been a career backup.

He was a backup in COLUMBUS for God's sake.

Columbus, as in the Columbus who beat us last night?

weird thing is, if we make it to the shootout....i have no worries. Ozzie has been great this year in shootouts.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Let's pull this out and win. Ugly wins are still wins.

[Wingsallwin 0]

Last year was Ozzy's first attempt in the Playoffs, ever?

Answer for Cam Ward.

[BuckeyeWingsfan80 209]

Columbus, as in the Columbus who beat us last night?

Yeah....as in the Columbus of 3 years ago when they totaled a massive 73 points.

He couldn't replace Marc Denis as the starting goalie.

[XxGoWingsxX 0]

we win, we take the western conf lead over SJ

[YoungGuns1340 1]

He was a backup in COLUMBUS for God's sake.

Like Roloson, who was splitting games with Fernandez for his Wild tenure, and then came within a game of the cup? Like Kipper, who was a back-up and placed on waivers at 28?

[gowings00 545]

Sorry guys...I just wanted to see what it felt like to defend Ozzie with blind loyalty....I'll be honest....it almost killed me to post my last post....
