	So far Osgood has been winless in the playoffs. So you have to think, if he started the two game in Nashville would the wings be 11-0 right now?? And setting up the chance to go 16-0?? Or did him having to come in to replace Hasek the motavation he needed to step it up???

	Frist, Osgood loves playing againest Dallas.....he stated this many times. Second. He played well all season. Thrid. He worked on changing his style in the net.....doing the butterfly, he worked on this when he wasn,t playing to perfect his technque.

	I think they should have gone with Osgood in the first place. Every year Hasek seems to get an injury at key moments. Maybe he should retire. He has skill when he is healthy but that is getting harder to come by. I think after Osgood's start and then sort of getting a bad streak, it was good for them to go with Hasek at first because it gave Ozzie the motivation to take the team on his shoulders and ride with it. They are a great team, but I don't think they would have gone 16-0. I tip my hat to them for being great since Ozzie took over. Let's keep it up!

	I'm not exactly sure if the wings would go 16-0 either it was just a thought. Heck before this series I didnt expect us to get this far. Thank god I was wrong. And I agree that the fact Ozzie not starting gave him a boost in the rest of the series.

	It is a lot to ask to go 16-0. Maybe it was a blessing that Hasek started, this way Osgood got a little rest. I know that they shared the duties all season, but in the playoffs you need one goalie to stand on his head and carry you to the cup. There seems to be many hot goalies in the past that beat the Red Wings, when the Wings were favored large. So Ozzy being hot right now is just dandy.
