John Gibson’s Rough Start Should Look Familiar To Red Wings Fans

The Detroit Red Wings allowed five-plus goals in each of John Gibson’s last two starts. That could raise red flags for some fans. A quick look at Gibson’s stats tells a sad story. Gibson is now 1-3-1 as the Red Wings starter. He has an .863 save percentage, a 3.76 GAA, and a .200 quality starts percentage. His save percentage ranks 37th among NHL goaltenders, and his GAA is the eighth-worst in the NHL. But if fans remember correctly, Gibson’s numbers were beyond pedestrian early in 2025-26, and he rebounded to become one of the better goaltenders in hockey.
