Khan(!)‘s report from practice.
Chris Osgood will start for the sixth time in the last seven games Saturday against Phoenix, coach Mike Babcock said after practice Friday. Dominik Hasek will start the next game, Tuesday in Montreal.
“Ozzie’s playing good, but I need to get Dom back in there and get him rolling, too,’’ Babcock said. “It’ll be a good environment in Montreal, a tough test, a good opportunity.’‘
Also reports that Maltby’s out tomorrow, Ellis is in.

since my cable company screwed over hockey fans and isn’t offering the NHL package this year, I’ve watched exactly 3 games…including the one against Tampa a couple nights ago.
Chris Osgood is not the same goalie he was when he left Detroit. his mechanics and positioning are greatly improved. he doesn’t cough up the huge rebounds he used to. he is the best goalie in the league. how he is not the offical #1 goalie for the Red Wings is beyond me. Babblecock’s lack of a spine is disheartening.

I don’t think it’s lack of spine… Osgood really doesn’t seem to care if he’s designated #1, 1A, 1B, or whatever, but lots of those posting here think Hasek does care. Babcock probably knows this better than anyone, and I think he’s just using his post-graduate sports psychology background and walking the tightrope, trying to give the Hasek time bomb as long a fuse as possible.
