EDGE Analysis

Lyon is still looking for his first win of the season but is coming off a perfect 15-for-15 save performance in relief of Cam Talbot against the Rangers on Wednesday. In his previous start, also versus New York, the 31-year-old Lyon stopped 24 of 27 shots in a losing effort. If he can put together a strong performance, Lyon might be capable of prying the starting gig away from Talbot.

EDGE Analysis

Lyon replaced a struggling Talbot midway through the second period, and while he did a good job defending his net, the game was well out of the Red Wings' reach by the time the 31-year-old stepped onto the ice.

EDGE Analysis

in his first action of the season, Lyon got beaten once in each period, with Chris Kreider's power-play tally in the second proving to be the game-winner. Detroit has used a different goalie in each of its first three games of the season, which doesn't bode well for any of their workloads, but with Ville Husso now at AHL Grand Rapids after clearing waivers, Lyon could work in more of a timeshare with Cam Talbot in the short term.

EDGE Analysis

The plan is for Lyon to serve for two periods Friday before Cam Talbot steps in for the third frame. Talbot is projected to be the Red Wings' No. 1 goalie in 2024-25, but with Lyon and Ville Husso also set to make the team, it's going to be difficult for any one netminder to rack up a lot of starts in Detroit.
