Osgood should have gotten an interference penalty, as what he really
did was obstruct Ribeiro during play.

Ribeiro is facing a possible suspension because he not only swung his
stick (which is, in the eyes of the league, much worse than holding
your stick out for someone to run into), but he did it after the horn.

You do it while the clock's between 19:59 and 00:01 and you're always
in much better shape than if the clock reads 20:00 or 00:00.

Verses caught it. And were very fair about it. Osgood had no business
sticking that butt end out there after the whistle. Ribeiro was wrong to
swing his stick and prolly should get a suspension, but Osgood had no
business doing what he did.

ESPN followed it and said nothing should happen to either outside of a
fine... we shall see.

I missed it- out on the patio planting-just saw the Ribeiro slash and only
on replay- no Osgood butt. Obviously CBC considers his butt a non-issue.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Ribeiro gets a game. In light of it
being retalitory seems stupid. But when has the NHL ever been smart?

Well, Osgood said in after-game interviews that he was just trying to keep a
hard hit from happening, but it was pretty deliberate and kind of a "I am
not looking while I lift the butt of my stick into him" thing. With that
said... Osgood got hit in the pads and played it pretty well. I think after
calming down.. a fine for both is suitable.

With that said.. this may be just was the Stars need.. some kind of wake up
call to play better against a top team... not that they didnt play better
tonite.

So......They needed a guy to apply a 2 hander to the upper body of his
opponent and take a probable suspension to get their team fired up? Ok!

I under the "still time on the clock" thing but come on....running a guy
with less than 12 seconds. Suspended for the rest of the series - man
that is a little hard. I mean look at that goon pronger...

I'm exaggerating, because I think it was such a mindlessly stupid
thing to do. Not because of the foul itself.

Why would SJ be a better matchup - I think Dallas is a much better skating
team - SJ I do believe has a better goaltender -never really impressed with
turco. Other than that they are just a lumbering east conf. team really and
the wings would skate round them like dallas did. I do not think Wilson is
that great of a coach ........

Ya know I do not recall how many games that clown got. It will be
interesting what Dallas tried to do tomorrow. Hell they can not pass/skate
with the wings so it is that lame-o physical game nonsense - that never
works. Only reason the ducks won last year is we were missing two or our
top 4 defenseman and no second line. Ozzy move was minor. I am going to
have to watch TIVO of the end of the game. I missed the game last night and
all I saw was sportcenter very late last night...
