The Detroit Red Wings face a crucial decision regarding goalie Ville Husso as the season progresses. With the team experiencing recalls and demotions, Husso's performance has raised questions about his future with the organization. Having shown promise at the AHL level, where he boasts a 6-1-0 record and impressive stats, there is a case for allowing him to improve under the new coaching staff led by Todd McLellan. His previous season with the St. Louis Blues also indicates he has the potential to rebound.
However, sending Husso back to the AHL could hinder the development of promising goalie Sebastian Cossa, as the Red Wings need to balance both players' growth. Alternatively, the option of cutting ties with Husso looms large, especially considering this is his third consecutive season of underperformance. With veteran Jack Campbell available as a backup option, the Red Wings must weigh the pros and cons of keeping Husso against the potential benefits of moving on.
