My all time favorite Red Wings goalie Chris Osgood announced his retirement after playing 17 seasons. I got to see Osgood "up close and personal" when he was with the St. Louis Blues for a brief 2 years.Osgood won three Stanley Cups, 1997 and as starter in 1998 and 2008. Osgood was one of the 10th winningest goalie in the league.Best wishes, Ozzie. Come out on the ice occassionally so we don't miss you too much :)

I know it is silly to mention about Martin Biron #43 - Lac St. Charles, Quebec - the goalie of the Philadelphia Flyers as the player/goalie with the prettiest eyes in the NHL. I thought this post might cheer the Flyers a little considering they are already down 3 games in the Series against the Pittsburgh Penguins. My husband asked how I could tell how beautiful Biron's eyes are with the mask on. I told him just like men attend football games to watch cheerleaders shaking their bodies, I go to hockey games to see "goalies' eyes" :)

Congratulations to St. Louis Blues Right Winger Adam Cracknell, #79, on his first NHL goal. Cracknell scored in the 1st period during the game against the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday, March 12, 2011. (Being sportmanship, I will not hold it against Cracknell for scoring against my beloved Red Wings. Besides, the Wings won the game 5-3.)
The 25 years old Cracknell is from Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada.
"The Red Wings’ captain will play the role of general manager that day, when he and Carolina’s Eric Staal take turns in a fantasy draft selecting from a pool of NHL All-Stars. When the teams are complete, they will skate under the names Team Lidstrom and Team Staal in the first NHL All-Star that will have the teams decided by the players. Lidstrom and Staal were selected to be the two captains in the first All-Star game with the new format by the players who will participate that weekend."
Congratulations to Nicklas Lidstrom #5 on being named captain at the 2011 NHL All Star game on Sunday, January 30th.
If it was up to me, it would be very simple -all the Detroit Red Wings players would be on the rosters - haa haa
