The Detroit Red Wings suffered a blow as goaltender Ville Husso

 exited Tuesday night’s game against the Edmonton Oilers due to an injury during the 1st period. Concerns immediately arose that it might be a recurrence of the ailment that had sidelined him for several weeks earlier in the season. Now, head coach Derek Lalonde has confirmed those fears, saying Husso is once again considered “week to week” with a lower-body injury.

On Tuesday, Husso was entrusted with the starting goaltending duties, marking his first start since December 18. However, less than 10 minutes into the first period, his night ended abruptly due to an aggravation of his lower-body injury.

He did not return and was replaced by Alex Lyon. And now, the latest health update has been released by Lalonde, who indicated that Husso is once again considered “week to week”.Husso has compiled a record of 9 wins, 5 losses, and 2 overtime losses this year, boasting a goals-against average of 3.55 and a save percentage of .892.
