Detroit may trade John Gibson after Rangers lose Igor Shesterkin for season

The New York Rangers announced goalie Igor Shesterkin will miss the entire season due to a knee injury suffered on October 9. With backup Joonas Korpisalo also sidelined, the Rangers are considering veteran goalies, including John Gibson of the Detroit Red Wings. Detroit's current record is 1-3-1, and Gibson, whose contract expires at the end of the 2026-27 season, is seen as an asset rather than a long-term option. A trade's potential return value for Gibson remains uncertain, with discussions around salary retention and conditions. If the trade occurs, Daniil Tarasov would likely become the starting goalie for Detroit.
