Red Wings Sign Tarasov for Backup Role | Detroit Red Wings News

Detroit Red Wings pull off a savvy move by signing veteran goaltender Daniil Tarasov on a one-year, $2M deal to back up John Gibson. The 27-year-old, who stopped pucks against them in their season finale, brings NHL experience—98 games played, 33 last season with Florida—and a proven track record, including a standout 24-save performance in a win over Detroit. With Cam Talbot’s departure, Tarasov fills a critical backup role while younger prospects like Michal Postava develop. It’s a smart, immediate fix that balances veteran presence with future potential.
