• Red Wings' Ville Husso: Sent down Wednesday

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Husso was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday. This move suggests Alex Lyon (lower body) will be cleared to at least serve as the backup for Friday's game in Anaheim. Husso made one appearance during this stint in the NHL, allowing three goals on 23 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Rangers last Saturday. Lyon and Cam Talbot will be the Red Wings' NHL goaltending duo moving forward.

• Red Wings' Ville Husso: Gets no help in return to Wings

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Husso turned aside 20 of 23 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Rangers, with New York's final goal getting scored into an empty net. Making his first NHL appearances since Oct. 10, Husso got very little help from his teammates as the Blueshirts scored on the power play midway through the first period and never looked back. Husso was called up from AHL Grand Rapids on an emergency basis with Alex Lyon (lower body) unavailable and Cam Talbot having played the night before, and he'll likely stick around as Talbot's backup until Lyon is cleared for action. Husso has given up seven goals on 37 shots for Detroit this season, but he's posted a 1.23 GAA and .958 save percentage in three appearances for Grand Rapids.

• Red Wings' Ville Husso: Tending twine Saturday

  Husso will be between the home pipes against the Rangers on Saturday, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports. Husso was recalled under emergency conditions after Alex Lyon, who was originally scheduled to start versus the Maple Leafs on Friday, suffered a lower-body injury. With a back-to-back on the schedule, the Red Wings will turn to Cam Talbot for Friday's contest before pressing Husso into service versus the Rangers on Saturday. In his lone NHL appearance this year, the 29-year-old HUsso gave up four goals on 14 shots (.714 save percentage) before being pulled from the crease versus the Penguins on Oct. 10. Once Lyon is cleared to return, Husso will likely be shipped back to the minors.

• Red Wings' Ville Husso: Called up from minors

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Husso was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids under emergency conditions Friday. According to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press, the Red Wings are dealing with a flu bug going around the team. As such, the decision to bring up Husso could be an indication that Alex Lyon, who is scheduled to start, or Cam Talbot is under the weather ahead of Friday's matchup with Toronto. Either way, fantasy players shouldn't be expecting Husso to feature against the Leafs on Friday -- though with a back-to-back, it's not out of the question that he would be pressed into service versus the Rangers at home Saturday.

• Red Wings' Ville Husso: Lands on waivers

  10/13/2024 • By RotoWire

  Husso was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. Husso allowed four goals on 14 shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to Pittsburgh before being replaced by Cam Talbot early in the second period. If the 29-year-old Husso goes unclaimed from the waiver wire, he could head to AHL Grand Rapids. Detroit still has Talbot and Alex Lyon on the roster to occupy the top two goalie spots.
