John Gibson may be the NHL's unluckiest goaltender, and he could either help or hurt the Detroit Red Wings. When Steve Yzerman made the trade, I sensed Gibson would be an immediate upgrade over Petr Mrazek, but in the back of my mind, there's still risk that comes with him.
Injuries are the main concern, and they ultimately led to Gibson taking a back seat to Lukas Dostal. But Gibson has also shown durability in the past, logging at least 56 starts in three different seasons. He's also held his own playing behind some terrible Anaheim Ducks teams, so he's seen the worst of it.
