Detroit Red Wings goaltender Ville Husso is looking forward to a bounce-back season
Ville Husso's 2023-24 season with the Detroit Red Wings was undeniably disappointing.
Initially planned to start around 55 games, Husso managed just 19 appearances due to groin injuries. His performance also struggled, with a .892 save percentage and a 3.55 goals-against average, far below expectations. Despite a promising offseason, Husso's form deteriorated, culminating in an early exit from the season in February.
Now, with one year left on his contract and facing stiff competition from Alex Lyon and Cam Talbot, Husso's NHL future is at stake. He's no longer the clear starter, and his health and performance will determine whether he can reclaim his spot as Detroit's top goaltender.
A successful rebound season would require staying healthy and proving he can still be the reliable presence the Red Wings need between the pipes.
