Ville Husso - NHL News & Rumors

Sent back down Husso was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Saturday.

Impact Alex Lyon (upper body) suited up and made a relief appearance in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Lightning, which was enough to prove his health in a return from an upper-body injury. That will also lead to Husso being sent packing back to the AHL. Husso allowed five goals on 23 shots against the Sharks in his lone appearance during this NHL stint.

Season continues down garbage chute Husso made 18 saves in a 6-3 loss to San Jose on Tuesday.

Impact He allowed five goals. Husso's game has gone down the garbage chute this season. He has a single win in eight starts, and his 3.69 GAA and .866 save percentage are the worst of his career. One word. Avoid. OK three more words. At all cost.

Starting versus San Jose Husso will be in goal at home Tuesday versus the Sharks, according to Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site.

Impact Husso was brought up from AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday on an emergency basis due to Alex Lyon dealing with an upper-body injury. Husso hasn't made a start with the Wings since Dec. 14. The Finnish netminder has struggled in 2024-25, owning a 1-4-2 record, .877 save percentage and 3.47 GAA. The Sharks sit 30th in the NHL with 2.53 goals per game.

JANUARY 9 • NHL.COM

Rises to NHL Husso was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Wednesday under emergency conditions.

Impact Husso's promotion comes after Alex Lyon (upper body) sustained an injury in Tuesday's game versus the Senators. Cam Talbot will likely take on a starting role while Lyon is out -- the Red Wings don't have a back-to-back within the next week, so Husso may not get a start if Lyon's injury only causes a brief absence.

Returns to AHL Husso was sent to AHL Grand Rapids on Thursday.

Impact Cam Talbot hasn't returned from his lower-body injury, but Husso's demotion suggests Talbot might be an option for the Red Wings' upcoming back-to-back set against Montreal on Friday and Saturday. Husso has a 1-4-2 record, 3.46 GAA and .877 save percentage in eight appearances with Detroit in 2024-25. He's been far better with Grand Rapids, posting a 1.58 GAA and a .944 save percentage in five outings.

First win of season Husso made 23 saves in a 4-2 win over Toronto on Saturday.

Impact Husso benefitted from a committed team in front of him -- the Wings blocked a lot of shots and were able to move into transition quickly. But he was also strong -- he stymied Mitch Marner on a third-period breakaway to preserve the lead. The win was Husso's first of the season (1-4-2; 3.42 GAA and .877 save percentage). He'll need more performances like this one with Cam Talbot (lower body) sidelined and Alex Lyon (lower body) on the IR.

Set to start against Toronto Husso will serve as the starting goaltender for Saturday's home game against the Maple Leafs, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports.

Impact The Red Wings are dealing with several injuries among their goaltenders, as Alex Lyon (lower body) remains on injured reserve, while Cam Talbot exited Friday's practice session due to a lower-body injury and won't be available Saturday. As a result, Husso will tend the twine at home Saturday, while Detroit will need to call up another netminder to serve as a backup. It's not yet clear whether Talbot will be sidelined beyond Saturday, but the Red Wings hope that Lyon will be able to return at home against the Flyers on Wednesday.

Gets hook Monday Husso allowed three goals on seven shots before being replaced by Sebastian Cossa to begin the second period of Monday's 6-5 shootout win over the Sabres.

Impact While the netminder didn't have much chance on the last two goals, Zach Benson's tally just 98 seconds into the game definitely qualified as a softie, as Husso got a clean look at a long-range shot but simply left too much of a gap at the near post. Husso has started five straight games but failed to come away with a win in any of them, going 0-2-2 with a 3.31 GAA and .889 save percentage. If Cam Talbot (lower body) isn't ready to return Thursday in Philadelphia, it wouldn't be a surprise if Cossa got the nod for his first career NHL start instead.

In goal Monday Husso will get the starting nod on the road versus the Sabres on Monday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact Husso has still yet to secure a win this season, going 0-4-2 with a 3.39 GAA in six outings this year. Still, with Cam Talbot (lower body) and Alex Lyon (lower body) both still sidelined, the Wings don't have much choice but to continue rolling with Husso in the crease -- unless they want to give Sebastian Cossa his first NHL start.

Extends losing streak Husso stopped 23 of 25 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Husso has been forced to step into a starting role with Cam Talbot (lower body) sidelined, and the results haven't been encouraging. The 29-year-old Finnish netminder has yet to win a start this season and has dropped the four straight appearances he's made since Dec. 1, going 0-2-2 with a 2.78 GAA and a .909 save percentage in that span.
