I don't think you'll find a whole lot of people that share that perception that Osgood can be a viable NHL starter. It may be true, but based on what he's done this season it would be pretty tough to make that leap at this point. Doesn't help his case that he makes about twice the going rate for old timeshare goalies who may or may not be finished.
We also don't know that he's still capable of being lights-out in the playoffs, and neither do any of those East teams that would be in the market for a goalie.
