Gibson exits Red Wings game after first period with injury

Detroit Red Wings goaltender John Gibson left the game against the Tampa Bay Lightning after the first period due to a lower body injury. He has been ruled out for the remainder of the game. In his short appearance, Gibson made 11 saves on 13 shots faced, with both goals scored by Braden Point. The Red Wings had Gibson in net for the second game of their back-to-back series in Florida, following a prior appearance by goalie Daniil Tarasov. If Gibson's injury persists, the team may call up prospect Michal Postava, as Tarasov has played two consecutive nights.
