PrintDetroit Red Wings at Philadelphia Flyers, Apr 4, 2010 11:30 AM CDT
A very busy weekend for the Red Wings concludes as they head to the Wachovia Center to take on the Philadelphia Flyers with the possibility of clinching a playoff spot with a victory.
While the Red Wings seven-game winning streak came to an end in the lost to Nashville yesterday, the 12-game point streak does continue, and the Red Wings are two points behind the Predators with four games to play (and two games in hand).
As Casey mentioned, Detroit will give the start in net to Chris Osgood: his first appearance in net since March 3 against Vancouver and first start since January 27 against Minnesota. In fact: Osgood has not won in regulation since November 3 when he shut out the Boston Bruins in Game 13.
For the Flyers, they're in the eighth playoff spot in the Eastern Conferece, but only because of the tiebreaker over the New York Rangers.
The game is a 12:30 p.m. ET start on NBC. Please comment below.

Go Wings!
Happy Easter everybody will be with family today but watching the game…enjoy people!

LETS GO WINGS!
Pardon me but its
Hoppy EAVESTER now. :)

Yeah, I remember a friend’s mom making that mistake once. Also the same woman who didn’t bother to hard boil stuff once…we found a couple eggs out in their yard by stepping on them, that was fun.

Go Wings!
Lets go Ozzy, glad to see him get a start and I hope he does great. That way Babcock will have increased faith in him along with most of the Wings nation.
I know
I wish he played better early in the year so he’d had a few more starts by this time. Kick some Flyer butt, Ozzie (not necessarily literally).
"While there's life, there's hope." --Cicero
Pronger is tall
So his butt is probably at perfect kicking level. Not Ozzie’s fault.

But yeah, I’m actually eating during the game, so hopefully I won’t be complaining about food and my hunger… Wait, I already DID complain about my food.
And warm greetings to all...
…here in Detroit, we’re getting pumped up for an exciting Red Wings game … with an informercial for some sweeper.

Happy EAVESter to you too

A win today
And a win on Wednesday (which I am likely to attend with 90% possibility) will let me witness the Red Wings get yet another triple digit season. Remember when people were talking about how the playoff streak will end at 18?
yes no one injured is always important
and yeah its crazy we can still hit 100 after how we played during most the regular season, granted everyone was injured.

Why do Flyers have so many banners on the rafters?
Is it all division championship boasters? Or did they retire every possible jersey or what?

im just going to say he is a little rusty
give him a couple saves and he will hopefully pick it up
draft micah johnson
as much as i love ozzie
i’ve lost all confidence in him. seeing him in net makes me feel exactly how i did when jimmy played at the start of the season.
Ah, fuch my Internet
Feed is getting choppy. And I know it’s not the feed… Probably my lazy Easter Internet.

He's on Wingspan a lot, he runs some player development stuff
How you spend your minutes are what matters /All tomorrows come from yesterdays- "I Am" Bon Jovi
yup
Wings named him Director of Player Development. After guys are drafted and they get talked to by the suits, Fisher gives them his cell phone and keeps in touch with them about how they are doing, what they can do to improve, etc. He’s kind of a liaison between the player and the organization, someone they can talk to whenever they want.

Oh, it’s supposed to be the dryer he used as a kid (no pun intended) to practice his shot but it’s a stunt dryer which makes it even dumber.
Because his parents definitely live in the same tiny ass house
Now that Crosby is getting paid way more money than a captain should take against the cap.
typical stupid kids
No concept of how to do their own laundry, so they beat up a dryer instead.

He’s guilty!
How you spend your minutes are what matters /All tomorrows come from yesterdays- "I Am" Bon Jovi
yeah we did
i think petrella texted him and told him we were blaming the lose on him
draft micah johnson
Seriously
You’re not often going to win if you don’t play even most of a game. In the first period, the Wings did not start really trying until they were already down by two goals. In the second period, they did not try at all. And in the third, they continued giving the puck away and not managing to do a whole lot. The Red Wings got shots, but how many of them were actual scoring chances vs. low quality shots from the outside?
If the Red Wings don’t bother to show up when a couple calls go against them, they won’t get past the first round in the playoffs.
I don't think this is a trend
they have always sucked on early Sunday games, and the schedule makers did them no favors with yesterday’s game plus travel. They were playing an Eastern conference team in about as meaningless of a game as you can have around this time of the year. I’m ok with dropping this one, if it means we take 5 of the last 6 points.
I was thinking the same thing
Afternoon game, travel, earlier afternoon game against desperate opponent = slow start at the least.
If Osgood had played out of his mind, the team might have come back to win or get a point. Playing a little shaky at first and then settling down later, was too tough for them to overcome.
Columbus, Columbus, Chicago – and two more points to clinch a playoff spot.
