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

Red Wings' Ville Husso: Stumbles out of gate
Husso allowed four goals on 14 shots Thursday before being replaced by Cam Talbot early in the second period. Detroit lost 6-3 to Pittsburgh.
Sure, the Wings D was porous, but at some point, Husso needs to step into the role or leave. It took less than a period for Wings fans to explode in fury on social media with this performance. Husso showed such promise in St. Louis, but has never been able to fulfill it in Detroit. Beware your fantasy bottom line if you rely on him. He could end up at the end of the bench... or worse.

Red Wings' Ville Husso: Set to start Thursday
Husso will serve as the starting goaltender in Thursday's Opening Night matchup at home against the Penguins, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.
Husso struggled during the 2023-24 campaign, posting a 9-5-2 record, 3.55 GAA and .892 save percentage over 19 appearances. However, he had a strong preseason this year and will be in the home crease for the Red Wings' regular-season opener. It seems likely that Cam Talbot will still be the team's No. 1 option at goalie this year, but Husso could make a push from playing time if he has a bounce-back campaign.

Red Wings' Ville Husso: Best player on ice
Husso stopped 30 shots in a 3-2 preseason loss to Toronto on Saturday.
Husso was Detroit's best player in the game, which was even more impressive because the Leafs dressed a star-laden roster. It was Husso's second game of the week, which could be seen as preparation for the start of the regular season. He's put the injury woes that kept him out of two-thirds of Detroit's games last season behind him.

Red Wings' Ville Husso: Gets starting nod Wednesday
Husso will be between the pipes on the road against the Blackhawks on Wednesday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Husso played in just one NHL game from mid-December to the end of the season last year due to a lower-body injury. While his injury concerns appear to be behind him, early signs point to the Red Wings deploying a three-goalie unit with Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon in the mix. As such, Husso probably won't get enough opportunities to make him fantasy viable in most formats.

Red Wings' Ville Husso: Ready to rock in 2024-25
General manager Steve Yzerman said Friday that Husso (lower body) will be ready for the start of the 2024-25 season, Sean Shapiro of EP Rinkside reports.
Husso played only once after Dec. 20, as he suffered a recurrence Feb. 13 when he gave up one goal on seven shots before being removed against the Oilers. He is now considered healthy and is set to battle Alex Lyon for the No. 1 job with the Red Wings next season, though Yzerman did say that he will look at the goalie market come the start of free agency.
