Wow. NHL.com just released their players of the decade list and Chris Osgood was apparently the second best goalie of the past 10 years... Luongo wasn't even an honorable mention. Their rationale for picking Osgood, what else besides "He just wins"? According to NHL.com:
"Osgood was a key to the Wings' Cup win in 2008 and nearly got them another one last spring."
Or to edit for validity: "Osgood was key to the Wings' Cup loss in 2009 and nearly lost them another one the previous spring."
I never said this formally before but congratulations on the gig.
