Thursday, April 26 Potvin vs. Osgood Darren Pang Special to ESPN.com Felix Potvin, Los Angeles Kings 2000-01: 58 games REC.: 27-22-8 | GAA: 2.62 | SPCT: .900 | SO: 6 Career playoffs: 52 games REC.: 25-27 | GAA: 2.75 | SO: 5 Chris Osgood, Detroit Red Wings 2000-01: 52 games REC.: 25-19-4| GAA: 2.69 | SPCT: .903 | SO: 1 Career playoffs: 62 games REC.: 36-21 | GAA: 2.14 | SO: 8 How you beat Potvin How you beat Osgood You can beat him in close by being patient with the puck and firing it high under the bar. He has changed his style by covering the percentages down low with the paddle on the ice, staying deep in his net. You can beat him by getting him off his angle on shots from the wing to the far side. You can always test him with long shots as Al McInnis and Jamie Langenbrunner have in past playoff series. How Potvin beats you How Osgood beats you He beats you with quick reflexes and his new-found confidence with the Kings, which is the same swagger he had with the Leafs. He covers both posts down low, he has good legs and one of the best gloves in the game. He will beat you with a very quick glove hand and a stubborn resilience; he won't let goals against get him down. Darren Pang is a hockey analyst for ESPN.
