Marco Kasper Ready To Rejoin Action Wednesday

Detroit Red Wings center Marco Kasper (illness) is expected to be back in the lineup on Wednesday against Philadelphia. He was unavailable for Saturday's contest against Toronto due to an illness. Kasper has been in an offensive slump recently, going scoreless in nine of his past 11 appearances. The 20-year-old has picked up seven points (two goals, five assists) in 25 games during his rookie campaign. Jonatan Berggren will make way in the lineup for Kasper, who is projected to skate on the fourth line.

Alex Lyon Returns To Work Wednesday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon (lower body) will be back in action on Wednesday against Philadelphia. He has shaken off a lower-body injury, which has kept Lyon sidelined for the entire month so far. The 32-year-old finished November strongly with back-to-back wins and will enter Wednesday's action with a 4-4-0 record. He has registered a 2.75 goals-against average with a .911 save percentage and one shutout. The Red Wings have struggled offensively this season, which has impacted Lyon's numbers. However, the Flyers are also a low-scoring team, so Lyon should fancy his chances of making a winning return.

Cam Talbot Re-Aggravates Lower-Body Injury

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (lower body) will not be available Saturday against Toronto. Talbot returned from a lower-body injury in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Philadelphia, stopping 32 of 34 shots, but he re-aggravated the injury in Friday's practice. Thursday's loss dropped Talbot's record to 6-6-2. Alex Lyon (lower body) also remains out this weekend, which puts Ville Husso in the spotlight again. He's yet to register a victory this season, going 0-4-2 with a 3.74 goals-against average and a .870 save percentage.

Cam Talbot Set To Return On Thursday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (lower body) will likely return to the crease on Thursday against Philadelphia. The veteran was initially expected to be out until the weekend. But Talbot looks ready to rejoin the action on Thursday after the team assigned Sebastian Cossa to the AHL. Talbot, who's been unavailable for three games, has gone 6-5-2 this season with the Red Wings, allowing 2.73 goals with a .915 save percentage and one shutout. He's been in decent form throughout the campaign, but due to Detroit's offensive woes, Talbot hasn't ended up in the win column too often. Only five teams are averaging fewer goals this season.

Andrew Copp Scores Twice In Monday's Win

Detroit Red Wings forward Andrew Copp netted two goals as the team bettered Buffalo 6-5 in a shootout Monday night. Copp's second goal of the contest sparked a Red Wings comeback in the third period when the team had fallen 5-3 behind. These are his first goals in over a month, and Copp had recorded just two points across his previous 15 appearances. The veteran forward started out the season relatively well, but his offensive impact has been limited. With 28 games played, Copp has tallied seven goals and four assists with 30 shots.

Cam Talbot To Miss At Least Two More Games

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (lower body) will remain on the shelf Saturday versus Colorado and won't be ready to return on Monday against Buffalo, either. The veteran has already sat out two games with a lower-body injury. Per Ansar Khan of MLive.com, Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde has confirmed that Alex Lyon (lower body) also isn't ready to return, so the team will continue to lean on Ville Husso between the sticks. The Finnish netminder has yet to taste victory in 2024-25, going 0-3-2 with a 3.69 goals-against average and a .877 save percentage. It's been a nightmare so far for Husso, and things could get ugly for him again on Saturday against an Avalanche offense that Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen power. Sebastian Cossa, who has yet to make his NHL debut, will continue to work as the Red Wings backup.

Patrick Kane Returns To Red Wings Lineup

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) will be back in action on Thursday against Ottawa. The American star will return from a five-game absence. Kane has struggled for productivity this season, going scoreless in each of his last five appearances. He's totaled 10 points (three goals, seven assists) in 20 games for the campaign. We should see Kane on the second line with J.T. Compher and Alex DeBrincat and on the top power-play unit. Half of his points have come with the man advantage this season.

Patrick Kane To Miss Tuesday's Game

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) will remain out for a fifth consecutive game on Tuesday versus Boston. Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde hopes to have him available again on Thursday when Detroit faces Ottawa. Kane started the season reasonably well but was stuck in an awful slump before exiting the lineup. Over his last nine appearances, the former MVP has added to his points tally just once. He has produced three goals and seven assists in 20 games for the season. With Kane out for another game, Tyler Motte will continue to skate on the second line.

Jeff Petry Considered Day-To-Day

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Jeff Petry (lower body) is considered day-to-day. The 36-year-old veteran missed Monday's practice and might have to sit out Tuesday's game against Boston. Petry averages nearly 19 minutes of ice time for the Red Wings and has even seen regular power-play time lately, but he's been limited to three assists in 20 games on the offensive front this season, failing to score with 13 efforts on net. Petry's work has included 36 blocks and 27 hits. Albert Johansson, who has one assist through 13 outings, is expected to join the lineup if Petry is a no-go for Tuesday.

Lucas Raymond Extends Point Streak To Career-Best Seven Games

Detroit Red Wings winger Lucas Raymond extended his point streak to a career-best seven games in Sunday's 5-4 overtime defeat against Vancouver. He finished the contest with two helpers, dishing out one assist on the power play. The Swedish forward was also desperate to extend a five-game goal streak and produced a game-high six shots. Raymond has recorded five goals and four assists during his hot spell. He's on track to average a point per game for the first time in his career, sitting on seven goals and 18 assists with 24 games played.

Cam Talbot Hurt On Sunday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Cam Talbot (lower body) was forced to make an early exit in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to Vancouver. He suffered a lower-body injury in the second period. Talbot stopped 12 of 14 shots in the game. Ville Husso made 15 saves on 18 shots after replacing Talbot. The Red Wings are already without Alex Lyon (lower body) and might face a goalie crisis if Talbot also has to miss additional time. Ville Husso, who has struggled badly since last season, would then get the bulk of the action. Detroit returns to the ice on Tuesday versus Boston.

Patrick Kane Misses Second Consecutive Game

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane (upper body) will miss a second consecutive game on Wednesday against Calgary. Kane missed his first game of the season against the Islanders on Monday. He remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury but is expected to return soon. The Red Wings have their next game on Friday versus New Jersey. Kane is in the middle of a five-game scoring drought and has averaged just 0.5 points per game this season. In 20 appearances, he has contributed three goals and seven assists. Tyler Motte moved to the top six on Monday and is expected to remain on the second line Wednesday.

Alex Lyon Starts For Red Wings On Monday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon has been confirmed as the starter for Monday's meeting with the Islanders. Detroit goes back to the goalie who has already come out victorious twice from the same matchup this season. Lyon has a 2-0-0 record against the Islanders, with only one goal allowed. The most recent victory came last week with a 22-save effort in a 2-1 win. Lyon's overall record for the season stands at 3-4-0. He has allowed 2.85 goals with a .908 save percentage. While his form tends to be inconsistent, Lyon seems to have the Islanders' number and must be full of confidence ahead of Monday's outing.

Michael Rasmussen Might Be An Option Monday

Detroit Red Wings center Michael Rasmussen (upper body) might make a quick return to the lineup. He missed his first game of the season on Saturday versus Los Angeles, but Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde hopes to have him available again on Monday against San Jose. The same applies to defenseman Simon Edvinsson (lower body). Rasmussen leads the Red Wings forwards with 30 hits and has logged four points (two goals, two assists) across 16 games. Tyler Motte took his place in the lineup on Saturday. He will likely head back to the press box if Rasmussen is ready to return on Monday.

Alex Lyon Struggles In First Appearance Of The Month

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon had a rough outing as he returned from a lower-body injury on Friday against Anaheim, allowing five goals on 28 shots in a 6-4 defeat. The Red Wings battled out a 3-1 lead, but Lyon couldn't keep ahold of it, conceding three goals in the third period. The 31-year-old netminder has now dropped three starts in a row, with his record plummeting to 2-4-0. Lyon has a 3.13 goals-against average and a .903 save percentage for the campaign. He will give up the crease to Cam Talbot against the Kings on Saturday and might have to wait for his next opportunity for a while because Lyon hasn't been getting the job done for Detroit.

Patrick Kane Notches Two Points In Overtime Win

Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane played a vital role in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime triumph at Pittsburgh, scoring a power-play goal and helping to set up Simon Edvinsson for the game-winning tally. The former MVP ended a three-game dry spell with the two-point outing. It's his third multi-point game of the campaign. Health issues have left a mark on Kane, but he can still get hot occasionally. In 15 outings this season, Kane has managed three goals and seven assists, grabbing half of his 10 points with the man advantage.

Jeff Petry Sits Out Friday's Contest

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Jeff Petry will be a healthy scratch for Friday's matchup against Toronto. He comes out of the lineup after amassing a minus-three rating across the past three games. The entire campaign has been a struggle for Petry, who's produced only one assist in nine games. The Red Wings will insert Justin Holl back into the lineup. Holl has recorded one assist in seven outings this season. He has failed to hit the 14-minute mark in three consecutive appearances but should play a bigger role on Friday as Ben Chiarot's partner on the second defensive pairing. With that said, Holl has zero fantasy value, and managers should look elsewhere for reinforcements at the back.

Alex Lyon Dealing With Lower-Body Injury, Ville Husso Called Up

Detroit Red Wings goalie Alex Lyon (lower body) tweaked an injury in practice on Thursday and won't play in either of the team's back-to-back games on Friday and Saturday. Cam Talbot will get Friday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, while Ville Husso was called up from the AHL and will start Saturday against the New York Rangers. Neither make for a great stream, as both the Rangers and Leafs have offensive firepower. As for Lyon, head coach Derek Lalonde said he wasn't overly concerned about the chance of a long-term absence, so the goalie should be back soon.

Dylan Larkin Bags Two Points In Win Over Chicago

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin played a pivotal role in Wednesday's 4-1 win at Chicago. The Red Wings captain logged two points in the contest, helping Alex DeBrincat to start the scoring in the first period and netting the game-winning tally in the second frame. It was Larkin's second consecutive multi-point outing. He has hit top gear lately by amassing five points in three games, doubling his tally for the season. Despite ensuring a dry spell recently, Larkin leads the Red Wings with eight goals and has recorded two assists in 12 games. He faces one of his favorite opponents next, entering a matchup against the Maple Leafs with 27 points (13 goals, 14 assists) in 28 career games against them. Larkin has scored more points only versus the Sabres (29).

Dylan Larkin Scores Twice On Saturday

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin found the back of the net twice in their victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday evening. The Detroit captain tied the game on a power-play goal in the second frame. Later in the third, the Michigan native would break the stalemate by scoring his second goal of the evening, once again on the man advantage. Through his first 11 games this season, Larkin has tallied eight points, seven of which were goals. In addition, he sits with a minus-three rating with 30 shots on goal, six hits, and four blocked shots. Fantasy managers should continue to rely on Larkin as a safe bet for offensive output, as he should continue to play on the top line alongside Alex DeBrincat and Patrick Kane.
