This is incredibly reidiculous.

Osgood's start was with teams like Chicago and Washington (don't forget his shutout in Boston later in the season) and he let in a single goal in each of them, while pretty much standing on his head both of those games.

Osgood and Hasek SPLIT games when Hasek was on the team. He didn't play a "handful".

He let in two goals in each game against Was and Chi... not 1. He also got lit up badly by Buffalo right after those games.... bad start.

Also, what you meant to say was he SPLIT time with Hasek in 07-08.. in 05-06 he was relief for Manny. in 06-07 he was relief for Hasek... and he did both admirably with little need for a plethora of games to gain consistency. I fail to see why he's all of a sudden a rhythm goaltender like Kipper. Never has been, never will be, and the few recent starts is hardly an excuse for someone who, as you said, has such a glorious resume.... Decide, is he an average goalie or a champ? If he's a champ then I'm going to treat him with the high expectations that title denotes (and expect him to come up big for a team in desperate need of a hero).. if not, then accolades are hardly worth mentioning and I'll in turn expect little of him.

Now, I never denied his accomplishments, nor do i dislike the man like many... but his lows are very low. That's about all that was being said.

It'd be nice for Lids to get one. Just to get him going again or something. Some silver lining.

Amen... and contrary to the popular belief I've been hearing, Lids isn't shooting less... he's got 87 shots so far, and he's had around 180 the past two seasons... they just aren't going in like they used to.

It would be great to see Leino or Lidstrom or other players that haven't scored in a while step up and get the O going. Crash the net and scrape for the rebounds, guys!

LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!

This game is so frustrating, they cannot get anything going, and REFUSE to play any sort of chippy game. We need hire Kocur as an assistant coach and just work with 4th line and 3rd defence pair.

Plus, with the occasional chair thrown to the ice, there will actually be some Wings related highlights worth cheering about.

Remember that game years ago when Detroit was trailing Chicago 2 to 0 with 30 seconds left in the game and ended up winning 3.2 in overtime? That was great.

You sounded like Chris Farley on saturday night live there. When he interviews celebrities.
