The San Jose Mercury News has some interesting news about the Wings' lineup for Thursday's matchup: Chris Osgood will be the starting goaltender.
It was assumed that Hasek would get the start and that Osgood might play in Phoenix. IIRC, Osgood got shelled in an early-season game in San Jose last season (or was that the year before?).
Also noted is that neither Nicklas Lidstrom nor Henrik Zetterberg practiced on Wednesday. They'll be game-time decisions on Thursday.
WOO
I am positively soooo excited for this game.
San Jose is my second favorite team!
Hmmm, I wonder how they will do with Osgood in net ¬.¬
From practice today it was announced that Lidstrom and Zetterberg will both play tonight. That'll help the Wings a bit I'd think. ![]()
I'd love to comment on the Grier goal but it happened right when they decided to interrupt and tell me there was a tornado across the county from me. I'll have to replay it later.
Nice, San Jose already getting away with interference and injuring Red Wings. Must be nice to be one of the league's favorite teams.
"Good block by Lilja." Don't hear that too much this season.
Only three shots after a period. Ouch. That last one almost counted but, of course, that's not enough.
Halfway through the game and the Sharks finally get their first penalty. Oy.
Nice little rumble between Downey and McLaren there. And I'll make that trade, keep McLaren off the ice for a bit.
