Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals was just another reminder that there is NO team outside of Anaheim and Pittsburgh thet can challenge the Wings in their quest for another title. The Anaheim series showed what the Wings are made of, as the Ducks forced Detroits hand early and often in games. Their patience to wait for mistakes and almost bullet-proof D-men almost sent the Wings home for some early tee times and cold ones on the deck. But Detroit responded. And they did it like they always do: calmly and efficiently, with 4 lines rolling like an avalanche down the mountain side. I look forward to seein those Ducks in the Conference finals next year. But i digress. This team has taken it's shots, and come out the superior team just about every time they hit the ice.

Let's throw Ozzie a bone. I could feel it during games, working around all those people. They were anxious anytime the puck came into the Wings zone, on edge whenever it edged in toward the slot, and sheer panic anytime it made a forward movement toward Ozzie.
I can see why they might debate his "Hall credentials", but his playoff record is simply amazing. 2 cups as a starter, one as a backup. He's one of four guys to post back to back shutouts to start the Finals. All the guy does is win. He bailed out Hasek last year, was excellent in the Dallas and Pittsburgh series' and had to carry the Wings a few times against the Ducks this year. Perry-Getzlaf-Ryan is about as closeas it comes to what we throw at teams and Ozzie came out on top in key spots.
