miller76 463 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Not sure how valid these stories are, but Biron is not my favourite goalie out there. I would rather get Fernandez, and have him and Ozzie due a tandem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 I'd be more comfortable seeing Biron behind Osgood rather than Howie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theophany 110 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Don't post a thread with a topic as if this has already happened; put some punctuation (i.e. a question mark) in there so people don't panic until they read your thread and realize you're speculating.

Yak19 303 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Biron is gawbige, i would rather have Fernendez also or Nittymaki (still dont know why we didnt get him) but ya i will take him over Howard. And i would bring up Larsson before signing Biron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Can't imagine them making this move after just one game from Howard, even if it was a poor game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akustyk 84 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 (edited) I'd rather give Howard a good shot. it took ages to develop him in minors and make ready for the NHL - what sense would it make now to dump his chances after just 3 games? nada. he might not be future Brodeur or Bobby Lou but he's very cheap and might be perfectly sufficient to keep the team within playoff picture in tandem with Oz. and when Oz retires we could have Larsson ready. Biron is Buffalo school and I like this fact very much. haven't followed him much in Philly but I can imagine he has the tools to be Wings starter. but it simply doesn't make sense now. let Jimmy H. have his shot Edited October 10, 2009 by akustyk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Are you... being serious? Hell yes I am. Osgood f*cking sucks. And now he's even older and slower than he was. At least Biron has age and quickness on his side. And I'm sure if Biron played for the Red Wings all these years he would have some Cups too. Osgood is done. And I can guarantee this will be Osgood's last year in Motown either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDetroitRedWings 286 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 NO! sorry this is facepalm worthy Whatever dude. Osgood blows. He owned last year's worst GAA and Save% in the entire league (including all team's backups). Yeah he looked pretty good in the playoffs. But how long can he keep that going? Other than the last game against the Hawks, Osgood has looked terrible this season. This will surely be Osgood's last year in Detroit. THANK GOD for that.

The only thing Biron has over Osgood is his uncompromising mediocrity. He's never won anything or been anything other than purely average in either of his playoff runs (at the conclusion of which saw him let go for Ray Emery), whereas Osgood was being the best goalie in the playoffs either year.

Snazzy 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Why Biron, why not Luongo or Steve Mason? Jebus, LGW posters are not going to be happy. Anything less than an all-star caliber goalie is unacceptable. We have Howard, ftw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
