Grubauer will protect the road goal versus the Red Wings on Friday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Grubauer will make his second start and third appearance of the season. He has allowed three goals on 32 shots so far this season. Joey Daccord is expected to command a majority of the starts in goal, but Grubauer's play has been steady enough for him to challenge for something closer to an even timeshare in net.
