The netminder absorbed the impact with his leg pads and was slow to get up, though Gibson did finish out the final few seconds of the period. Cam Talbot finished the game.<\/p>\n<p>Since being acquired in the offseason from the Anaheim Ducks, Gibson has taken over Detroit\u2019s net from the incumbent Talbot. After a slow start to his season the 32 year old goalie has started in 40 games for the Red Wings, excluding tonight\u2019s contest, with a 23-13-2 record. The Red Wings have relied heavily on Gibson\u2019s strong play over the last few weeks, and his .906 sv % has been covering for a lot of Detroit defensive lapses.<\/p>\n<p>Before exiting the game, Gibson had stopped 20 of 20 shots from the Devils, and has had four shutouts this season.<\/p>\n<p>Gibson had to exit another game earlier this week against Nashville, with the Red Wings calling up goalie prospect <a href=\"https:\/\/detroithockeynow.com\/2026\/02\/16\/sebastian-cossa-top-red-wings-goalie-prospect-grand-rapids-griffins-call-up-possible-this-season\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sebastian Cossa<\/a> after.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Red Wings\u2019 week ended on a sour note as star netminder John Gibson was injured in their&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":276798,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5101],"tags":[599,93,5137,58,5,25359,12641,4,3358,5138],"class_list":{"0":"post-493994","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-detroit-red-wings","8":"tag-detroit","9":"tag-detroit-red-wings","10":"tag-detroitredwings","11":"tag-featured","12":"tag-hockey","13":"tag-injury-news","14":"tag-john-gibson","15":"tag-nhl","16":"tag-red-wings","17":"tag-redwings"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116196755714714425","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=493994"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493994\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/276798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=493994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=493994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=493994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
