John Gibson News

With the Red Wings' top two centers, Dylan Larkin (lower body) and Andrew Copp (lower body), expected to miss the next two weeks, the team will need Gibson to be at his best as they battle for a playoff spot. The 32-year-old Gibson has arguably been Detroit's most valuable player this season, but he struggled in his most recent outing, allowing four goals on 28 shots (.857 SV%) in a 4-3 loss to the Florida Panthers. He has a 2.23 GAA and .917 SV% in his last six appearances (2-3-0). The Red Wings enter Thursday's contest as +187 road underdogs against a reeling Tampa Bay Lightning team that is 1-6-0 in its last seven games.

Gibson did not finish Sunday's 3-0 win over the New Jersey Devils due to an undisclosed ailment, but it appears to have just been precautionary, as he will return to the crease on Tuesday against the Florida Panthers. The 32-year-old Gibson played well on Friday against the Panthers, saving 20 of 22 shots (.909 SV%), but did not receive enough goal support, ultimately losing 3-1. Gibson has a tremendous 1.41 GAA and .944 SV% in his last six appearances (3-2-0). The Red Wings enter Tuesday's contest as slight +108 road underdogs against a Panthers team that will be without leading goal scorer Sam Reinhart (undisclosed).

Gibson exited Monday's 4-2 win over the Nashville Predators in the first intermission due to an upper-body injury and did not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights. That said, he was back at practice on Thursday and will likely tend the twine on Friday against the Florida Panthers. The 32-year-old Gibson has only lost six of his last 25 games (19-5-1), posting an impressive 2.06 GAA and .925 SV%, leading the Red Wings to a playoff spot over the past two months. The Red Wings enter Friday's contest as -142 home favourites against a struggling Panthers team that extended their losing streak to four games (0-4-0) with a 4-2 loss last night to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
