Detroit Hockey Now’s Kevin Allen discusses the pecking order with which the Red Wings will likely start the 2023-2024 season in terms of goaltending:
The Red Wings made sure they will have enough depth this season by re-signing John Lethemon. The former Michigan State standout was 18-1-3, with a 1.99 goals-against average playing for the Toledo Walleye. He was named ECHL Goaltender of the Year, Lethemon shared the net with Sebastian Cossa during the playoffs.
Training camp performances will sort out who ends up where in the system. But here’s what we should expect to see next season:
Toledo Walleye: John Lethemon (2022-23 free agent signing) and Jan Bednar (Drafted 107th overall in 2020)
Grand Rapids Griffins: Alex Lyon (2023 free agent signing) and Sebastian Cossa (Drafted 15th overall in 2021).
Detroit Red Wings: Ville Husso (2022 trade with St. Louis) and James Reimer (2023 free agent signing)
Continued with discussion of the Wings’ goaltending prospects in Trey Augustine, Rudy Guimond and Carter Gylander.
