BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Quotes about Chris Osgood
OH, YOU DON'T USUALLY SAY A GOALIE'S PLAYED SPLENDIDLY IN A GAME WHERE HE'S GIVEN UP 6 GOALS, BUT TONIGHT CHRIS OSGOOD HAS DONE JUST THAT.

I just wanted to get off a shot on net and it went wide ... And I just went after it and I got through the defenceman (Brett Lebda) and I just wanted to get a quick shot off. I think I surprised Chris Osgood, I think it went under his arm.

The expectations for this team are very low but we feel we are a lot better than many people think. Chris Osgood made 26 saves for the Wings. I wouldn't say it's a Stanley Cup hangover
said Chris Osgood
We're not saying a guy can't play when he's younger ... But it's almost like a curve when the physical part and the mental part peak for a goalie. That's usually somewhere between 27 and 35. You see Chris Osgood is 35, 36 years old. As time goes on, guys get more comfortable, they've seen every situation, things slow down for them. But there's really no timetable under a rock anywhere.

Quotes from articles mentioning Chris Osgood
For years there have been rumors that the Stanley Cup had been involved in unusual relationships with top players
said Barry Melrose
in The Onion
I mean, the Stanley cup is older than he is, for one thing. And do you know how many guys must have kissed it over the years?

I know that every player on the winning team gets a day with the Cup. That's just tradition ... And no one deserves that day more than Chris, because he really got us through the Finals. And I know he and the Cup are both old enough to make their own decisions, but I don't know. Something about Osgood and the cup gratifying one another in a sensual fashion is just weird.

A better way ... A way that brings the Cup as much pleasure as the Cup brings you. Or the great city of Detroit, for that matter.

in The Onion
Okay, now, I'm not saying there isn't—it's a powerful feeling, when you win the Cup, and sometimes that leads to other feelings that are just as powerful ... Things happen, but you and the Cup both want them to happen, and you go back to the hotel and ask it to watch Dirty Dancing, and eventually maybe you get into some up and over, or there's some up and down and underneath, or maybe—I'm not saying this happened, but you know—maybe there's more than one way to kiss the Cup.
