Red Wings' Ville Husso comments on his return
It was a tough season for Red Wings starting goalie Ville Hussoas his injury riddled season only allowed nineteen games to be played. During the team's season ending media session, Husso spoke about how difficult it was going through this year and that he hopes to be ready for next season to getting back on track.
«It was a really tough year injury-wise and at the end, it was even mentally (tough) too,» Husso said in his end-of-season media session on April 18. «It's hard not to play and we were trying everything to come back, maybe a little earlier than we were supposed to, but unfortunately it didn't work. I'll be healthy for next year and I don't think we need any surgeries or anything.»
Having only played 19 games, he posted a 9-5-2 season with 3.55 goals against and an .892 save percentage. These are certainly not the numbers that general manager Steve Yzerman had hoped for when he signed him as an unrestricted free agent back in 2022.
Husso will have busy offseason
He had signed a three-year deal worth 4.8 million per season which on paper is a solid signing for a starting goaltender however, with the team improving especially defensively, the Red Wings will need him more than ever to be back into form as he would give them a greater chance of success.
Husso has made it clear that he will be healthy for next season and it will take more rehab and more work with the training staff in order to get his body and mind ready again.
