DETROIT - The Red Wings have placed Chris Osgood on the
injured list, but Detroit could have the goalie back from a nagging
groin injury before the end of the regular season.
Red Wings general manager Ken Holland says Osgood is eligible to
return on April 8 with two games left. It is unknown if Osgood will
be healthy enough to play then.
Detroit called up Joey MacDonald to back up Jimmy Howard on
Wednesday night against the Vancouver Canucks.
Osgood had surgery in January for a hernia and was expected to
be out six to eight weeks. He was hoping to play on March 12, but
had a setback.
The 38-year-old Osgood has won three Stanley Cup titles and 401
NHL regular-season games. He is 5-3-2 with a 2.77 goals-against
average in 11 games this season.
