Wings defeat Columbus 4-0.
It seems that Chris Osgood has finally put that rough start behind him. The Red Wings's starting goalie was solid yet again on Sunday night, shutting out the Columbus Blue Jackets for a 4-0 victory.
On Saturday Osgood made several nice saves to hold the St. Louis Blues to just two goals, when they could have easily had five.
Perhaps it is finally safe to say that the Red Wings have found a solution to their goaltending probelem.
But the bigger problem actually lies in defense. The Detriot D have looked particularly sloppy this year. One might say that Osgood's early struggles had a lot to do with that.
But forget that.
The fact of the matter is that Osgood looks less like the struggling goalie he was in the first half and more like the solid netminder that led the Wings to a Stanley Cup in '08. We need Ozzie's success to continue. If he plays well, Osgood is a much safer bet than backup Ty Conklin.
There is no gurantee that this will last, but you still have to admit that Osgood has looked excellent since returning from his 10 day rest.
It's pointless for me to re-explain why I have faith in this man, as I have done several times already (read my earlier articles), so I'll leave it at this:
OZ-ZIE OZ-ZIE!!! OZ-ZIE OZ-ZIE!!! OZ-ZIE OZ-ZIE!!!!!!
Good work Chris.
