In a recent game against the Philadelphia Flyers, Detroit Red Wings goaltender John Gibson left the ice midway through the second period after taking a hit from Flyers forward Owen Tippett. Although there was no immediate incident leading to his exit, Gibson had previously absorbed a hit early in the period, which resulted in a penalty against Tippett. Cam Talbot stepped in as the goalie following Gibson's departure. Gibson, who has a season record of 28-20-4 with a 2.63 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage, has been dealing with injuries, having exited previous games due to puck impacts and upper-body injuries. With only three games remaining in the season, the Red Wings are facing potential playoff elimination, making Gibson's health a critical concern for the team's future.
