I’m pretty sure I’ve written about this before, probably in the context of watching college football games. I have slightly different feelings about my favorite places to watch a game in the city, so I figured I’d tackle this topic again. Admittedly, I’ve not watched a sporting event in every single bar in town. They [...]

Red Wing star, Chris Osgood, a fellow Plymouth resident, has maybe the coolest backyard ice rink you can imagine. Not only is the rink really cool, there’s an old fashioned log cabin style hockey shed. It’s a place to warm up by the fire and put on or take off your hockey gear. Ozzie entertains [...]

Thanks to Plymouth’s own Chris Osgood, and his fellow Red Wings, on a helluva playoff run. The Wings represent the Detroit area and the entire state of Michigan with class and dignity and they are amazing athletes that are fantastic to watch. It’s kind of depressing that Ozzie will not be bringing the Stanley Cup [...]

Our local hero, Chris Osgood, has been great the last 2 games of the Stanley Cup Finals, but his team didn’t bail him out last night. The series is tied 3 all and coming back to Detroit for game 7. I want the Wings to win the Stanley Cup so bad I can taste and [...]

OK, OK, it’s not the Stanley Cup, but some cool replicas made by enthusiastic Red Wings (I presume) fans have turned up in the neighborhood. They’re hardly works of art, but they’re great anyway. Man do I love this time of year. Here’s to the Red Wings bringing home the real cup in June.
Ozzie! Ozzie! Ozzie!

There’s a big — huge! — hockey game tonight in downtown Detroit. The Red Wings are playing the Anaheim Ducks in game 7 of the Western Conference semi-finals. Plymouth’s own Chris Osgood, as many of you know, is the Wings’ net minder. It’s do-or-die for the Red Wings. Ozzie’s been solid in the playoffs. Here’s [...]

It’s that time of the year again. It’s the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Our hometown hero — he lives on Penniman — Chris Osgood helped our Detroit Red Wings get off to a great start in these playoffs. The Wings beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-1 last night in the first game of round 1 of [...]
