SPEAKING
"I don't think about it when I play great, you just move on and play the next game. You guys make too big a deal out of these games. If this happens the day before the playoffs, it doesn't matter. What matters is what happens in the first playoff game." -- Detroit goalie Chris Osgood after allowing three goals on 14 shots and being pulled in the second period of the Red Wings' 5-3 loss at Calgary on Monday night.
