4/5 GDT: Wild 2 at Red Wings 3

True enough. Somebody said earlier that it's understandable that the defense breaks down every now and again because they can't be perfect all game. So why does Osgood have to be perfect all game?

He does not have to be perfect just 91% perfect not 88.4%

This is not an argument. Less than perfect is 99%. What you're saying is tht 99% is no better than anything else thats less than 100%.

Why shouldn't I? Every time a goal goes in whether it's Osgood's fault or not, people want to club him over the knee.

It's your right, it's also just funny. Most goals he gives up are just crappy, hence the spankings.

I think I really understand what pro-Osgood posters mean when the defence is giving up, thus meaning Osgood is not responsible for goals.

It's been a recurring thing over the past decade. Why the hell would they back off and let Langenbrunner or MacInnis shoot? Obvious defensive lapses.

Yeah, the point of defenders is to protect the goalie. If a shot is taken, it's obvious that they are horrible and in no way could it be the goalie's fault. Ever. Unless it was Dominik Hasek, Manny Legace, Ty Conklin, or Curtis Joseph. Those guys still should make saves. Osgood is purely a victim of bad defense.

Yep.

TOTALY AGREE!!! :thumbup::thumbup:

Thats all they ever say is wrong--its ALWAYS the Defenses fault!!

The Osgood tooshy kissing is pathetic!!

:lol: I'm sure it has nothing to do with the other 18 skaters on the ice.

You're on the right track. However, for these nutcases, they're only focused on Osgood and how great the opposing goalie is. They're overlooking that this team is going into the playoffs. Barring some miracle, the Wild fantastic goalie's team is not.

If Ozzie was the Wild's goalie all year, they wouldn't even be competing for a playoff spot, and if Backstrom was our goalie, we'd already have the President's trophy clinched weeks ago.

I'm complaining because on the eve of the playoffs, Ozzie is still no better than he's been all season. No improvement whatseover. Being the genius that you are, try to figure out why I'm unhappy about that with the playoffs approaching.

If, if, if, if. How about let's look at reality. The Wings cannot afford Backstrom. The Wings have a TEAM that consists of things more than one player. And no, you're not complaining because anything regarding the playoffs. You've been bitching all season long about enforcers and goalies. You're a malcontent who wants his team the way you want it and if you can't have your little "iffy" perfect world team, you whine. And you shouldn't be surprised that when you piss all over a playoff team that fans here actually enjoy watching, rather than getting crapped all over by someone who calls himself a fan, you're going to get crap in return for it.

At the moment that's exactly what he is. 21 saves on 23 shots.

Oh and look, the bitching hasn't ceased. Not surprised.
