Lyon made 17 saves in a 6-3 win over San Jose on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Lyon has won his last four starts and continues to deliver career numbers. He is 18-8-3 with two shutouts, a 2.65 GAA and .914 save percentage. Lyon is in a strict alternating platoon with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, which means UPL will likely take on the Caps on Thursday, with Lyon back in the paint Saturday against the Maple Leafs.

Lyon made 23 saves in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old netminder has been working in a timeshare with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen since the Olympic break, and the arrangement seems to be working well for Lyon -- he's won all three of his starts since the break, allowing exactly two goals in each. Since returning from a lower-body injury in late January, Lyon's gone 7-2-0 with a 2.25 GAA and .930 save percentage.

Lyon made 27 saves in a 3-2 win over Vegas on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Sabres staked him to a 3-0 lead before he wobbled slightly in the second. On the first goal, Lyon was headed left for a save when Ivan Barbashev grabbed a rebound and scored on a wraparound at the opposite post. The second came 1:37 later when Pavel Dorofeyev scored five-hole on a breakaway. Lyon has won both games he has played since the break; he allowed four goals total. He's 16-8-3 with a 2.66 GAA, .915 save percentage and two shutouts in 27 starts this season. Best of all, he has helped propel the Sabres to within two points of first in the Atlantic Division.

Lyon made 28 saves in Friday's 3-2 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Facing the team that helped him turn his career around in 2022-23, Lyon was locked in and couldn't be faulted for either of Florida's goals -- one came on a second-period power play for the Panthers, while the other came late in the third when Rasmus Dahlin tried to clear a puck out of the crease and instead banked it into the net off the back of Lyon's legs. The veteran netminder has won five of seven starts since returning from a lower-body injury in late January, going 5-2-0 with a 2.32 GAA and .930 save percentage.

Lyon will guard the visiting cage in Florida on Friday, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lyon is having a stellar year between the pipes, his best to date in the NHL. He is 14-8-3 with a pair of shutouts, a 2.72 GAA and a .913 save percentage over 27 contests this season. The 33-year-old netminder will face a tired Florida team, who beat the Maple Leafs 5-1 on Thursday.

Lyon allowed four goals on 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Penguins. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Lyon took just his second loss in six games since he returned from a lower-body injury. This wasn't a pretty one -- it was the first time he allowed more than three goals since Nov. 28 versus the Devils. Lyon is down to 14-8-3 with a 2.72 GAA and a .913 save percentage over 27 appearances. Lyon has often been the Sabres' best goalie this season, and he should handle the bulk of the starts until Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen can return.

Lyon will be between the pipes at home against the Penguins on Thursday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lyon is 4-1-0 with a 2.02 GAA and one shutout in his last five outings and has racked up 14 wins this year, matching his 2024-25 total. In fact, the veteran backstop could set a new career-best mark and top the 21 victories he recorded with the Red Wings back in 2023-24, especially if Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen remains sidelined after the Olympic break.
