Gibson will start in Montreal on Saturday.

Gibson has been terrific between the pipes for the Red Wings, and he hopes to continue his upward trend on Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens. The 32-year-old goalie had a concerning start to his tenure with the Red Wings, posting an ugly 3.45 GAA and .865 SV% in his first 13 games (5-7-1), but has been among the NHL's top goalies since, posting a 2.24 GAA and .927 SV% in 13 games since (11-2-0).

Danielson has been assigned to Grand Rapids (AHL).

Danielson made his NHL debut at the beginning of November and has been a regular in the lineup since, but he will return to the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL). The 21-year-old, the ninth overall pick in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, has had trouble acclimating to the NHL level, with just seven points (2G / 5A) in 28 games. He had been held off the scoresheet in 11 straight games.

Nate Danielson
Leonard will draw back into Detroit's lineup in Ottawa on Monday.

Leonard did not play the previous three games for the Red Wings, but he will return to the lineup on Monday against the Ottawa Senators. The 27-year-old Leonard has four points (2G / 2A) in seven games this season. Nate Danielson will be a healthy scratch to accommodate the lineup change.

Gibson will start in Ottawa on Monday.

Gibson played well on Saturday, saving 27 of 29 shots (.931 SV%), but did not receive enough goal support in the 4-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Talbot will start in Pittsburgh on Thursday.

The Red Wings will hand Talbot his 21st start of the season when they travel to Pittsburgh on Thursday. Talbot excelled in his latest start, allowing just two goals on 27 shots in a 3-2 overtime win over the Maple Leafs on Sunday. The 13-year-veteran owns an impressive 11-6-2 record on the season despite an underwhelming .889 SV%. The Red Wings enter action on Thursday at +110 on the money line.

Cam Talbot
Gibson will start vs. Winnipeg on Wednesday.

The Atlantic Division-leading Red Wings will enter the final game of the calendar year with Gibson tending the twine. The 32-year-old Gibson allowed four goals on 37 shots (.892 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 5-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes, but he has played well lately. After a horrendous start to his tenure with the Red Wings, posting a 3.45 GAA and .869 SV% in his first 15 games (7-7-1), Gibson has flipped a switch, posting a solid 2.04 GAA and .932 SV% in his last seven (6-1-0). The Red Wings enter Wednesday's contest as slight -103 home underdogs against a struggling Winnipeg Jets team that has plummeted to last place in the NHL after losing nine of their last 10 games (1-6-3).

van Riemsdyk (undisclosed) will draw back into Detroit's lineup vs. Winnipeg on Wednesday.

van Riemsdyk has not played in a week due to an undisclosed injury, but will re-enter the lineup on Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets. The 36-year-old van Riemsdyk was the odd-man out of the lineup when Patrick Kane returned from injury, but he was a solid contributor before being sidelined, scoring nine points (8G / 1A) in his last 14 games.

James van Riemsdyk
Talbot will start vs. Detroit on Sunday.

Over the past month, John Gibson has earned himself more starts in the Red Wings’ crease, but the team will turn to Talbot on the tail end of a back-to-back on Sunday.
