Red Wings' John Gibson: Hangs on for OT win
Rotowire
Gibson stopped 31 shots in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Hurricanes.
The veteran netminder took a shutout into the third period, but Carolina's special teams forced OT with two power-play tallies and a shortie. Andrew Copp was able to bail Gibson out with the OT winner, however. Gibson has won four straight starts, and since the beginning of December, he's gone 13-2-0 in 15 outings with a dazzling 2.07 GAA and .930 save percentage.
Gibson was the first goalie off the ice Monday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes at home versus the Hurricanes.
Gibson is riding a three-game winning streak, during which he has allowed just four goals on 88 shots while posting one shutout. The veteran netminder has 16 victories this year, which is already his highest total since the 2021-22 campaign. If Gibson can get to the 25-win mark, which seems pretty likely, it would be the first time he's reached that threshold since 2018-19.
