Osgood will be in net tonight against Alex Ovechkin and the high-powered Washington Capitals at the Verizon Center. The Capitals are the highest-scoring team in the NHL.

“That’s quite a coincidence. Or maybe not,'' Osgood said after the morning skate. "We’ll see how it works out.’’

He then Questions Babcock's ability to manage goaltenders:

“At the start of the year Howie didn’t play for about a month and then I didn’t play for a month. To me that’s not a good way of doing things, to let one guy get stagnant,'' Osgood said. "You have to have both guys going, especially with the amount of games we have, especially coming back after the Olympic break we have a ton of games in March. So we have to have two guys in case something happens.’’

Igaza is van.
