The Detroit Red Wings opted not to re-sign goaltender Alex Lyon, who subsequently joined the Buffalo Sabres on a two-year, $3 million contract. Lyon has excelled in the playoffs, posting a 1.30 goals-against average and a .950 save percentage, leading to Buffalo’s first playoff appearance since 2011. He replaced Ukko-Pekka Lukkonen during their opening round and is second in playoff stats among goalies. His previous tenure with the Red Wings saw him achieve a 35-27-6 record in 74 games.
