He will not require surgery and is expected to be ready for the beginning of training camp in September. Lyon will battle Ville Husso for the top job with the Red Wings in 2024-25 -- Lyon went 21-18-5 with a 3.05 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 44 regular-season appearances in 2023-24. | None |
| May 13, 2024 | Lyon sustained an undisclosed injury while playing for the United States at the 2024 IIHF World Championship. - Lyon has returned to the US to undergo further evaluation and will not participate in the tournament any further. The netminder figures to be in a battle for the starting job next season, assuming he doesn't miss any significant time, alongside Ville Husso. | None |
| April 15, 2024 | Lyon will protect the home net Monday versus the Canadiens, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports. - Lyon allowed six goals on 27 shots in a 6-5 overtime loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday during his last outing.

| April 12, 2024 | Lyon stopped 21 shots in Thursday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins. - The 31-year-old netminder had little chance on an Erik Karlsson blast from the slot early in OT, but he did play well enough to earn Detroit a potentially crucial point in the standings. Lyon still has only two wins since the beginning of March, however, going 2-9-3 with a 3.65 GAA and .893 save percentage over his last 14 outings. The Red Wings sit one point back of Pittsburgh in the race for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. | None |
| April 10, 2024 | Lyon turned aside 21 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals. - Detroit out-shot the visitors 43-23 on the night, but Charlie Lindgren stood on his head in the other crease while Lyon got beaten by Dylan Strome and Alex Ovechkin in the final three minutes of the second period. Lyon has allowed two goals of less in five of his last seven starts, posting a 2.29 GAA and .932 save percentage over that stretch, but he has only a 2-3-2 record to show for it as the Red Wings scramble for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. After Tuesday's loss, they sit one point back of the Caps for the No. 8 seed, with the Penguins and Flyers also very much in the mix. | None |
| April 8, 2024 | Lyon recorded his 20th win of the season in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Sabres, stopping 37 of 38 shots. - Lyon has been enjoying quite a first full NHL season, going 20-17-4 with a 2.98 GAA in his 41 appearances. More recently, he's gone 2-3-2 with a .924 save percentage over his last seven games, facing at least 30 shots in each of those contests. The Minnesota native will likely continue seeing a heavy workload the rest of the way, including possibly starting against Washington on Tuesday. | None |
| April 6, 2024 | Lyon will protect the home net Sunday against Buffalo, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com. - Lyon is coming off a 34-save effort in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Lyon has a 19-17-4 record this season with a 3.03 GAA and a .906 save percentage over 40 appearances. He has gone 1-1-0 versus the Sabres this season, stopping 38 of 45 shots. | None |
| April 5, 2024 | Lyon allowed four goals on 38 shots in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers. - Both teams exchanged goals for the majority of the contest but the Rangers had the last laugh as they scored the lone goal in the final frame to pull away with the win. Lyon has struggled for a while now as he has only one win in his last 12 games and he's been below .900 in eight of those outings. Fantasy managers may want to stay away from Lyon as a starter as the Red Wings end the season. | None |

He saved 34 of 36 shots en route to a 4-2 victory over Tampa Bay on Monday. The Lightning are a tough adversary, and the Rangers should be similarly challenging -- New York ranks seventh offensively with 3.41 goals per game. | None |
| April 1, 2024 | Lyon will guard the road goal Monday against Tampa Bay, per Red Wings radio broadcaster Ken Kal. - Lyon is coming off a 36-save effort in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to Florida. He has surrendered 36 goals on 303 shots during his 10-game losing streak. Lyon has posted a record of 18-16-4 this campaign with a 3.03 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 38 appearances.

Lyon went the entire month of March without picking up a win, going 0-8-2 over his last 10 outings with a 4.04 GAA and .881 save percentage, and his late-season swoon may end up costing the Red Wings a playoff berth -- they sit two points back of the Flyers for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. | None |
| March 29, 2024 | Lyon will patrol the visiting crease in Florida on Saturday, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - Lyon is in the midst of a nine-game losing streak, going 0-8-1 witha 3.93 GAA and an .867 save percentage.

| March 26, 2024 | Lyon stopped 26 of 30 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Capitals on Tuesday. - The Capitals could not get one past Lyon in the first period, but then he allowed an early goal in the second frame to give Washington some life. Both teams continued to trade tallies from there until the contest was locked at 3-3 heading into overtime. Dylan Strome ended it 1:55 into the extra period. Lyon has really struggled in March, as he has not produced a win since Feb. 27. Since March 14, Lyon has been splitting time with James Reimer, so fantasy managers will want to watch for who the starter is as the Red Wings continue to battle for a playoff spot. | None |
| March 25, 2024 | Lyon will guard the road goal Tuesday versus Washington, per Carley Johnston of the Red Wings' official site. - Lyon is coming off a 31-save performance in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Nashville. He has surrendered 30 goals on 235 shots during his eight-game losing skid. Lyon has posted a record of 18-16-2 this season with a 3.04 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 36 appearances.

| March 23, 2024 | Lyon made 32 saves in a 1-0 loss to Nashville on Saturday. - Lyon was locked in a goalie duel with Juuse Saros until late in the third period. But Filip Forsberg pulled the puck out of a scrum and went roof glove side at 14:46. It was a tough-luck loss for Lyon, who played well enough to win. Lyon has been struggling since the end of Feb. -- he hasn't won since Feb. 27. Since then, he is 0-8-0 in eight starts, allowing four or more goals in six of those games. But Saturday looked like Lyon might be turning a corner, especially against a Preds team that extended its team-record point streak to 17 games with the win. | None |
| March 22, 2024 | Lyon will be between the pipes for Saturday's road clash with Nashville, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports. - Lyon is mired in a seven-game losing streak during which he posted a 4.97 GAA and .857 save percentage.

| March 17, 2024 | Lyon will guard the road goal Sunday versus Pittsburgh, according to Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff. - Lyon has gone 0-6-0 over his past six outings, allowing 24 goals on 166 shots during that span. He has posted a record of 18-14-2 this campaign with a 3.03 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 34 appearances. The Penguins rank 25th in the league this season with 2.86 goals per game. | None |
| March 14, 2024 | Lyon allowed three goals on 26 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Coyotes. - Lyon has lost his last six starts, struggling to an .855 save percentage in that span. Overall, the 31-year-old netminder falls to 18-14-2 with a .904 save percentage and 3.03 GAA on the season. Lyon has continued to see the bulk of starts for Detroit, though the Wings could turn to James Reimer on Saturday as they try to snap a seven-game losing skid at home versus the Sabres. | None |
| March 13, 2024 | Lyon allowed four goals on 13 shots before being replaced by James Reimer late in the first period of Tuesday's 7-3 loss to Buffalo. - The brutal opening frame was more the fault of the the Red Wings' defense than it was Lyon, as the netminder would make an initial save only for Buffalo to keep the pressure on and eventually find the back of the net. Even so, Lyon has lost five straight starts in regulation and coughed up at least four goals in each one, stumbling to a 5.37 GAA and .850 save percentage during the losing streak. With the Wings suddenly in danger of missing the playoffs, Reimer could see his workload increase substantially. | None |
| March 12, 2024 | Lyon will guard the road goal versus the Sabres on Tuesday, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports. - Lyon has struggled mightily over the past two weeks, suffering four straight losses while posting an ugly 4.66 GAA and .866 save percentage. He'll try to start to right the ship in a road matchup with a Buffalo team that's averaging only 2.76 goals at home this year, 27th in the NHL. | None |
| March 9, 2024 | Lyon made 20 saves in Friday's 4-0 loss to the Coyotes. - Arizona struck for three goals in the first period, and while Lyon kept his focus the rest of the way, Detroit's offense never solved Connor Ingram.

| March 8, 2024 | Lyon will guard the crease on the road against Arizona on Friday, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - Lyon's last start was rough, as he allowed five goals on 40 shots in a 7-2 loss to Colorado on Wednesday. The 31-year-old has had a nice season though, posting a .910 save percentage and an 18-11-2 record. He will continue to split time with James Reimer, though that arrangement could change come playoff time. | None |
| March 6, 2024 | Lyon is set to start on the road against Colorado on Wednesday, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - Lyon will attempt to rebound after surrendering at least three goals in each of his last three starts. He's 18-10-2 with a 2.79 GAA and a .911 save percentage in 30 appearances this season. The Avalanche, who led the league with 3.65 goals per game, will be a difficult opponent for Lyon. | None |
| March 3, 2024 | Lyon stopped 33 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Panthers. - The netminder was able to keep things scoreless in the first period, but Lyon was hung out to dry over the final 40 minutes as the Red Wings were out-shot 28-16 and got thoroughly out-played. Lyon has seen a career-high workload this season and could be wearing down -- he's given up four or more goals in four of his last eight starts, going 4-4-0 with a 3.45 GAA and .882 save percentage. It wouldn't be a surprise if James Reimer began to draw into the crease more often. | None |
| March 1, 2024 | Lyon will be between the home pipes versus Florida on Saturday, per Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site. - Lyon saw his four-game winning streak come to a halt Thursday in a 5-3 loss to the Islanders.

He has a 2.74 GAA and a .912 save percentage. Lyon spent last season with the Panthers and will face them for the second time this season, as he gave up two goals on 34 shots in a 3-2 win Jan. 17. | None |
| Feb. 29, 2024 | Lyon made 22 saves in a 5-3 loss to the Islanders on Thursday. - He allowed four goals. Lyon had won four straight games with just eight goals allowed leading into Thursday.

| Feb. 28, 2024 | Lyon made 18 saves in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Capitals. - Detroit grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first period and never looked back, and while Lyon wasn't at his sharpest, he didn't need to be.

| Feb. 27, 2024 | Lyon will start between the home pipes in Tuesday's matchup with Washington, Carley Johnston of the Red Wings' official site reports. - Lyon has been excellent of late, stringing together three straight wins while posting an admirable 1.62 GAA and .947 save percentage. He'll try to pick up his 18th victory of the season in a home matchup with a Capitals team that's 12-12-4 on the road this year. | None |
| Feb. 24, 2024 | Lyon made 22 saves in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Blues. - While he lost his shutout bid in the second period, Lyon still nabbed his third straight win and 17th of the season -- more than he'd recorded in his entire career prior to 2023-24. After a couple of rough road outings, the 31-year-old netminder appears to be back on track. Over the course of his current win streak, Lyon has a .947 save percentage. | None |
| Feb. 23, 2024 | Lyon made 30 saves in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Avalanche. - Nathan MacKinnon slipped a puck past Lyon early in the second period, but the veteran netminder otherwise had an answer for everything Colorado fired at him. His numbers have begun to erode, but the Wings have been giving him enough support to keep him in the win column on a regular basis -- over his last eight starts, Lyon has gone 5-2-1 despite a lackluster 2.91 GAA and .903 save percentage. | None |
| Feb. 21, 2024 | Lyon is expected to start against Colorado on Thursday, Red Wings host Carley Johnston reports. - Lyon has a 15-8-2 record, 2.83 GAA and .912 save percentage through 25 games this season. While he's having a solid campaign overall, the 31-year-old goaltender has struggled recently, allowing 20 goals on 147 shots (.864 save percentage) over his past five appearances. It will be difficult to rebound versus the Avalanche, who are tied for first offensively with 3.68 goals per contest. | None |
| Feb. 19, 2024 | Lyon made 38 saves in a 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken on Monday. - The Kraken fired double-digit shots at Lyon in each period, including an additional one in the extra marker, but he was up to the task to keep his team in the game throughout. It took 15 shots and a power play for Seattle to get on the board when Jared McCann wired a slap shot into the back of the net on assists from Vince Dunn and Andre Burakovsky. McCann added another goal in the second period and then Jaden Schwartz got the game-tying goal in the third. The game went into overtime when Ben Chiarot ended it on a wrister for a Detroit win. Lyon finished the game with a solid .927 save percentage and three power-play saves. The Red Wings face the Avalanche at home Thursday. | None |
| Feb. 18, 2024 | Lyon will defend the road net Monday against Seattle, according to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - Lyon has surrendered 11 goals on 50 shots in two consecutive losses. He has compiled a 14-8-2 record this season with two shutouts, a 2.82 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 24 outings this season. The Kraken sit 28th in the league this campaign with 2.72 goals per contest. | None |
| Feb. 15, 2024 | Lyon is expected to start on the road against Vancouver on Thursday, Grand Rapids play-by-play broadcaster Bob Kaser reports. - Lyon will look to rebound after surrendering seven goals on 29 shots in an 8-4 loss to Edmonton on Tuesday. He has a 14-7-2 record, 2.76 GAA and .915 save percentage in 23 outings in 2023-24. The Canucks, who rank second offensively this year with 3.69 goals per game, figure to be a tough adversary. | None |
| Feb. 13, 2024 | Lyon surrendered seven goals on 29 shots in relief of Ville Husso (lower body) in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Oilers. - Husso was injured on the first goal of the game, forcing Lyon to come in cold. Lyon gave up a quick goal, but he was steady enough in the second period to have the game tied at 3-3 heading into the final frame, when the Oilers took over on offense. There's been few games like this for Lyon this season, who has a 2.76 GAA and a .915 save percentage to go with his 14-7-2 record on the year. If Husso has aggravated his previous injury, it'll likely be Lyon handling the lion's share of the starts in goal moving forward. | None |
| Feb. 11, 2024 | Lyon made 28 saves in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks. - All three goals against Lyon came in the second period as Detroit fell behind 3-1, but the veteran netminder stood tall down the stretch and gave his team a chance to mount a comeback.

| Feb. 8, 2024 | Lyon will defend the cage versus Vancouver at home Saturday, Will Burchfield of 97.1 The Ticket reports. - Lyon will be making his 15th appearance in the Wings' last 16 contests, having gone 9-3-2 with a 2.68 GAA in his previous 14 outings. Even if Ville Husso (illness) is cleared to play soon, it seems the coaching staff has turned the net over to Lyon, at least for the time being. | None |
| Feb. 1, 2024 | Lyon stopped 22 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators. - Two of the pucks that beat him were the result of tip-ins, while the third came on a Brady Tkachuk breakaway after Moritz Seider blew a tire trying to get back on defense. Lyon heads into the All-Star break having gone 8-2-2 in January with a 2.54 GAA and .923 save percentage, and the 31-year-old has a tight grip on the starting job in the Detroit crease. | None |
| Jan. 30, 2024 | Lyon will patrol the home crease Wednesday against Ottawa, per Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site. - Lyon has won his past two outings, having stopped 58 of 60 shots during that span. Through 20 games this season, he has posted a 13-6-1 record with two shutouts, a 2.49 GAA and a .924 save percentage. The Senators sit 11th in the league this campaign with 3.35 goals per contest. | None |
| Jan. 27, 2024 | Lyon is expected to start at home against Vegas on Saturday, per Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site - Lyon has a 12-6-1 record, 2.52 GAA and .923 save percentage in 19 contests this season. He'll look to build off Thursday's 30-save performance in a 3-0 shutout win over Philadelphia. Vegas is 29-14-6 this season but just 11-9-4 on the road, so the game being in Detroit might help Lyon meaningfully. | None |
| Jan. 26, 2024 | Lyon stopped 30 shots in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Flyers. - The 31-year-old was the busier netminder, as Detroit was out-shot 30-17 on the night, but Lyon had an answer for everything Philly fired at him. The shutout was his second of the season, with the other coming against the Devils on Nov. 22. Through 10 outings in January, Lyon has gone 7-2-1 with a 2.56 GAA and .926 save percentage as he tightens his hold on the top job for the Wings. | None |
| Jan. 24, 2024 | Lyon stopped 27 of 32 shots before being replaced by James Reimer to begin the third period of Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Stars. - Dallas scored four goals in the second period to Detroit's zero, prompting coach Derek Lalonde to make the switch between the pipes in an effort to spark a comeback. It almost worked, as the Wings nearly erased a 5-2 deficit in the final frame. It was the first time Lyon had given up more than four goals in a game all season, and since taking over the No. 1 netminding job in late December, the 31-year-old has gone 7-3-1 in 11 starts with a 2.97 GAA and .913 save percentage. | None |
| Jan. 23, 2024 | Lyon will patrol the home crease Tuesday against Dallas, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Lyon has won three of his past four outings, including a 27-save performance in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Tampa Bay. He has posted a record of 11-5-1 this season with one shutout, a 2.47 GAA and a .924 save percentage over 17 games this season. Dallas ranks third in the league this campaign with 3.63 goals per contest. | None |
| Jan. 21, 2024 | Lyon will face the Lightning at home Sunday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Lyon has allowed three or fewer goals in eight consecutive appearances. During that span, he's gone 5-2-1 with a strong .918 save percentage. The 31-year-old has now started 10 of Detroit's last 11 games. On the year, Lyon is 10-5-1 with a .922 save percentage and a 2.57 GAA through 16 games. | None |
| Jan. 19, 2024 | Lyon allowed three goals on 29 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes on Friday. - Lyon was the busier of the two netminders, facing over twice as many shots as Antti Raanta. He was unable to hold onto an early 1-0 lead, giving up two more goals, including a power-play goal to Andrei Svechnikov in the third period. This defeat marks the 31-year old netminder's second loss in his last seven games while not allowing more than three goals in any of them. Sunday against Tampa Bay marks the next potential start for Lyon. | None |
| Jan. 18, 2024 | Lyon made 32 saves in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Panthers. - Florida grabbed a 2-1 lead midway through the second period, but Lyon slammed the door shut the rest of the way. The 31-year-old netminder has yet to take a regulation loss in January, going 5-0-1 in six starts with a 2.62 GAA and .927 save percentage, and Lyon has a firm hold for the moment on the No. 1 job in the Detroit crease. | None |
| Jan. 16, 2024 | Lyon will get the starting nod for Wednesday's road clash with Florida, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports. - Lyon had started seven straight matches before getting the night off versus Toronto on Sunday, which happened to be the second night of a back-to-back. In those prior outings, the 31-year-old Lyon went 5-1-1 with a 2.96 GAA and .914 save percentage. It seems the Minnesota native has cemented himself as the No. 1 option for the Red Wings as the club tries to secure a playoff spot for the first time since 2015-16. | None |
| Jan. 13, 2024 | Lyon will protect the home net Saturday against the Kings, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports. - Lyon is coming off a 44-save effort in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to Edmonton. He has a posted a record of 8-4-1 this season with a 2.54 GAA and a .922 save percentage. Lyon made 40 stops in a 4-3 shootout win over the Kings on Jan 4. LA is tied for 11th in the league this campaign with 3.29 goals per contest. | None |
| Jan. 11, 2024 | Lyon allowed three goals on 47 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings on Thursday. - The Oilers outshot the Red Wings 47-17, so Lyon was far busier than Calvin Pickard on the night. Edmonton could not slip the puck past Lyon until their 37th shot on net by a Connor McDavid breakaway goal to tie the game up 1-1 in the third period. Detroit eventually ended up in the loss column after Darnell Nurse scored in overtime on the only shot in the extra period. Lyon has been a workhorse for the Red Wings, starting in six consecutive games for them with four wins during that span. | None |
| Jan. 10, 2024 | Lyon will tend the twine at home versus Edmonton on Thursday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Lyon is 4-1-0 with a 2.95 GAA and .906 save percentage in his last five contests. The 31-year-old netminder will be making his sixth straight appearance in the crease after James Reimer was relegated to the backup role after giving up five or more goals in three straight contests. The Red Wings have a back-to-back against the Kings and Leafs on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, which should see Lyon and Reimer split the workload. | None |
| Jan. 7, 2024 | Lyon stopped 29 of 31 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Ducks. - Lyon has won three straight games, but this was the first time in five outings since he returned from an upper-body injury that he allowed fewer than three goals. The 31-year-old was bested twice by Trevor Zegras, including once in the opening minute. Lyon is up to 8-4-0 with a 2.51 GAA and a .920 save percentage, and it looks like he has some momentum as the Red Wings' No. 1 goalie. They return home for a tough matchup with the Oilers on Thursday, giving Lyon plenty of time to rest. | None |
| Jan. 6, 2024 | Lyon will defend the road net Sunday against Anaheim, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports. - Lyon has stopped 64 of 70 shots en route to two straight wins.

| Jan. 4, 2024 | Lyon stopped 40 of 43 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings. - Lyon earned his third win in the last four outings, though he's allowed at least three goals in each of those games. Thursday's effort was one of his best this season, as the 43 shots he faced were a season high. The 31-year-old also stopped both of the Kings' shootout attempts. Lyon is up to 7-4-0 with a 2.56 GAA and a .919 save percentage through 11 appearances. He's the No. 1 goalie for the Red Wings, at least until Ville Husso (lower body) is ready to return. | None |
| Jan. 3, 2024 | Lyon is expected to start in Thursday's road game against LA, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - Lyon has won two of his last three starts, but he's also surrendered 10 goals on 86 shots (.884 save percentage) over that stretch. He's 6-4-0 with a 2.53 GAA and a .917 save percentage in 10 contests this season. The Kings rank 10th offensively this year with 3.38 goals per game, so this might be a difficult matchup for Lyon. | None |
| Jan. 2, 2024 | Lyon will defend the road net against the Sharks on Tuesday, according to Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site. - Lyon has lost three of his past four outings, surrendering 12 goals on 100 shots during that span. In nine games this season, he has a 5-4-0 record with one shutout, a 2.47 GAA and a .920 save percentage. San Jose sits 32nd in the league with 2.03 goals per contest this campaign. | None |
| Jan. 1, 2024 | Lyon stopped 19 of 22 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Bruins. - Boston's final two tallies were scored into an empty net. The 31-year-old netminder hasn't looked great since returning from an upper-body injury, allowing seven goals on 59 shots over the last two games, but with Ville Husso (lower body) still sidelined and James Reimer fighting the puck (4.76 GAA in December), Lyon figures to see a starter's workload in the crease for Detroit. | None |
| Dec. 30, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 33 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Predators. - Seeing his first action after returning from an upper-body injury that had sidelined him since Dec. 16, Lyon had little chance on any of the pucks that beat him, three of which came from right on his doorstep. The 31-year-old netminder played well enough to force OT as Detroit got out-shot 37-23 on the night, and Lucas Raymond was able to make him a winner. Lyon is 5-3-0 through eight starts on the season with a 2.39 GAA and .925 save percentage, and with James Reimer struggling again, he could make another push for the top spot in the Red Wings' crease. | None |
| Dec. 28, 2023 | Lyon (upper body) will get the starting nod at home versus the Predators on Friday, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports. - Lyon will make his first appearance in the crease since Dec. 16 against the Flyers when he gave up one goal on 16 shots but still suffered a loss. Ville Husso's (lower body) continued absence could allow Lyon to share the crease with James Reimer, especially after Reimer gave up 17 combined goals in his last three contests. | None |
| Dec. 23, 2023 | Lyon (upper body) was put on injured reserve Saturday, retroactive to Dec. 16. - Lyon was playing very well before his injury, as he was 4-3-0 with a 2.14 GAA and a .932 save percentage. The Red Wings are having trouble at this time between the pipes as Ville Husso (lower body) is also on injured reserve. James Reimer and Michael Hutchinson are currently the only two healthy goaltenders on the Red Wings, and Detroit is really struggling with a 3-6-1 in its last 10 games. | None |
| Dec. 18, 2023 | Lyon (lower body) is not expected to be ready ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Winnipeg and could be placed on injured reserve, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Lyon told reporters he will get back on the ice soon, so he doesn't appear to be facing a long-term absence. In the meantime, Ville Husso figures to see the bulk of the workload, though James Reimer should also be in contention for some starts. | None |
| Dec. 16, 2023 | Lyon (lower body) won't finish Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports. - Lyon stopped 14 of 15 shots before exiting in the second period. Ville Husso took over in goal and would likely be the Red Wings' unquestioned No. 1 goalie if Lyon misses time, with James Reimer mixing in as backup. More information about Lyon's status should be available before Monday's game versus the Ducks. | None |
| Dec. 15, 2023 | Lyon will start on the road against Philadelphia on Saturday, Derek Lalonde told Max Bultman of The Athletic on Friday. - Lyon stopped 21 of 25 shots before being pulled after two periods in a 5-1 loss to Ottawa in his past start last Saturday. Despite that rough showing, he's been an effective backup in 2023-24, going 4-2-0 with a 2.13 GAA and a .931 save percentage in six contests this season. Philadelphia is tied for 21st offensively this year with 2.97 goals per game. | None |
| Dec. 9, 2023 | Lyon allowed four goals on 25 shots in the first two periods of Saturday's 5-1 loss to Ottawa. - The game got away from Detroit in the second period, when the Sens scored three times. It was Lyon's first loss in his last five games. He's been a big part of the Wings' recent success, so don't give this loss too much weight. Lyon was a revelation last season for the Panthers to help them get into the Cup playoffs, where they eventually lost in the Final. He's a sound netminder, but underrated. And that means Lyon is a fantasy find for managers who effectively play the wire. | None |
| Dec. 8, 2023 | Lyon will be between the home pipes versus Ottawa on Saturday, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com. - Lyon has won four straight games, giving up only five goals on 121 shots. He is 4-1-0 with a 1.61 GAA and .947 save percentage this season as he is after Ville Husso's hold on the No. 1 job with the Red Wings. The Senators have found the back of the net 72 times in 21 games this season. | None |
| Dec. 6, 2023 | Lyon made 29 saves in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Sabres. - The 30-year-old netminder kept Buffalo off the board until late in the second period, but Lyon needed every bit of the 4-0 lead he'd been given as the Sabres' offense roared to life with three straight goals, including two on the power play. He's pushed his way into a timeshare with Ville Husso with four straight wins, and through his first five starts of the season, Lyon boasts a dazzling 1.61 GAA and .947 save percentage. | None |
| Dec. 4, 2023 | Lyon will defend the road cage against the Sabres on Tuesday, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports. - Lyon is riding a three-game winning streak during which he has allowed just two goals on 89 shots while picking up one shutout. With the Red Wings continuing to carry three backstops on the 23-man roster, there will be limited opportunities for Lyon to start, even with his impressive run of performances. | None |
| Dec. 1, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 34 shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over Chicago. - Lukas Reichel beat him on the power play early in the first period, but Lyon shut the door the rest of the way as the Red Wings' offense took over. The 30-year-old netminder has started three of the last five games and won them all while allowing only two total goals, and Lyon appears to be working his way into a timeshare with Ville Husso -- leaving James Reimer as the odd man out in the crease for Detroit. | None |
| Nov. 30, 2023 | Lyon is expected to guard the home crease against Chicago on Thursday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports. - Lyon had to wait until Nov. 17 to make his season debut because he was the No. 3 goaltender in the depth charts behind Ville Husso and James Reimer. Lyon has taken advantage of what work he's been given though, posting a 2-1-0 record, 1.35 GAA and .952 save percentage in three contests this campaign. Thanks to his strong play, this will be his fourth start in the span of six games. The Blackhawks rank 29th offensively this year with 2.65 goals per contest. | None |
| Nov. 26, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 37 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Wild. - Joel Eriksson Ek beat him on a Minnesota power play late in the first period, but otherwise Lyon had an answer for everything fired his way. The 30-year-old has started three of the last four games for his first action of the season, going 2-1-0 and allowing only four goals on 83 shots for a .952 save percentage. Ville Husso and James Reimer had seen all the starts in the crease for the Wings until their trip to Sweden for the Global Series earlier this month, but Lyon is playing too well right now to be relegated to the press box. | None |
| Nov. 25, 2023 | Lyon will patrol the home crease versus Minnesota on Sunday, per Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News. - Lyon has started Detroit's last two games, falling 3-2 to Toronto in Sweden on Nov. 17 before posting a 4-0 shutout win over New Jersey on Wednesday. The Wild are 19th in NHL scoring, averaging 3.06 goals per game. | None |
| Nov. 22, 2023 | Lyon stopped all 16 shots he faced in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Devils. - The ice was tilted all night, as the Red Wings finished with a 28-16 edge in shots. Detroit spotted Lyon a 3-0 lead with three goals over a 1:12 span in the first period, and New Jersey didn't push back much after that point as Lyon cruised to his first win of the season and second career shutout. Lyon will hope that this strong effort earns him more playing time at the expense of Ville Husso or James Reimer. | None |
| Nov. 21, 2023 | Lyon will patrol the home crease Wednesday against New Jersey, per Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site. - Lyon, who will make his second straight start, is coming off a 26-save effort in Friday's 3-2 loss to Toronto during his season debut. The Devils rank sixth in the league this campaign with 3.69 goals per game. | None |
| Nov. 17, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 26 shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to Toronto. - The 30-year-old netminder was making his first start of the season and took a shutout into the third period of the Global Series game in Stockholm, but the Maple Leafs line of William Nylander, John Tavares and Tyler Bertuzzi took turns getting pucks past him as Detroit's defense wilted under the pressure. Lyon will go back to being the Red Wings' No. 3 netminder when Ville Husso (personal) rejoins the club back in North America, and while he played well Friday, it could be a while before he gets his next chance in the crease. | None |
| Nov. 16, 2023 | Lyon is expected to start versus Toronto in Friday's Global Series contest in Sweden, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press. - James Reimer started for the Red Wings in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss, so it's not surprising that Lyon is getting the assignment for the second half of the back-to-back. No. 1 netminder Ville Husso isn't an option because he's back in Detroit to be with his wife, who gave birth to their first child. This will be Lyon's first start of the 2023-24 campaign after posting a 9-4-2 record, 2.89 GAA and .912 save percentage in 15 outings last year. Toronto ranks ninth offensively this campaign with 3.53 goals per contest. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2023 | Lyon set aside 25 of 28 shots in Thursday's 4-3, preseason overtime loss to the Maple Leafs. - Lyon, who is competing with veteran James Riemer for the No. 2 roster spot in Detroit's goal, played the entire game with Toronto dressing most of its regulars, ultimately earning praise from Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde. "Big saves and doesn't seem to be vulnerable to a soft goal," Lalonde said of Lyon. "You have to earn your goals against him, that's all you ask for of a goalie. He's had a solid camp." Lyon has a 16-11-5 record, 3.05 GAA and .903 save percentage between career stops in Philadelphia, Carolina and Florida. | None |
| July 1, 2023 | Lyon signed a two-year, $1.8 million contract with the Red Wings on Saturday, per PuckPedia - Lyon posted a 9-4-2 record with a 2.89 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 15 appearances with Florida last season. Detroit also signed netminder James Reimer on Saturday, so Lyon will have some competition for the backup role behind Ville Husso going into the 2023-24 campaign. | None |
| June 5, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 12 of 15 shots in relief in a 7-2 loss to Vegas in Game 2 on Monday. - Lyon entered the contest at 7:10 of the second period after Sergei Bobrovsky surrendered four goals on 13 shots. Lyon held the fort for the remainder of the frame, but then was beaten three times on 10 shots in the third period, stifling any hope of a comeback. Still, the 30-year-old wasn't charged with the loss, so his playoff record remains at 1-2 this year. He also has a 3.63 GAA and an .888 save percentage in four postseason outings. | None |
| May 2, 2023 | Lyon was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate ahead of Tuesday night's Game 1 versus Toronto, TSN's Chris Johnston reports. - The fact that Lyon was the first goalie off the ice at morning practice would generally suggest he's on track to start between the pipes Tuesday, but that'd be a bit of a surprising move for coach Paul Maurice after Sergei Bobrovsky secured three straight wins to close out the first round against the Bruins, helping propel the Panthers to the second round. Which netminder will ultimately get the nod for Game 1 against the Maple Leafs likely won't be confirmed until Florida takes the ice for pregame warmups. | None |
| April 22, 2023 | Lyon stopped 23 of 26 shots before being replaced by Sergei Bobrovsky midway through the third period Friday in a 4-2 loss to the Bruins during Game 3 of the Panthers' first-round series. - Florida likely wouldn't even be in the playoffs were it not for Lyon's somewhat miraculous late-season run, but the magic could be wearing off for the 30-year-old netminder. He sports a 3.26 GAA and .902 save percentage to begin the postseason, and while coach Paul Maurice was non-committal after the game, Bobrovsky could be poised to make his first start since March 27 in Game 4 on Sunday as the Panthers try to avoid falling into a 3-1 series hole. | None |
| April 21, 2023 | Lyon will protect the home goal during Friday's Game 3 versus Boston, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports. - Lyon was solid in Wednesday's Game 2, turning aside 34 of 37 shots en route to a convincing 6-3 victory. The American netminder will try to secure a second straight win at home Friday in a matchup with a Bruins team that looks like it may be without captain Patrice Bergeron (upper body) for a third straight contest. | None |
| April 19, 2023 | Lyon will defend the road cage in Game 2 against the Bruins on Wednesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports. - Despite suffering a third straight defeat, Lyon will make his 10th consecutive appearance in goal for the Cats. If Lyon were to suffer another loss to the Bruins, coach Paul Maurice may be forced to finally give Sergei Bobrovsky a start. In the meantime, Lyon seems to have earned the trust of the coaching staff and will look to hold onto his spot in the crease. | None |
| April 17, 2023 | Lyon was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports, indicating he'll be between the road pipes for Game 1 against the Bruins. - Lyon will be making his ninth consecutive appearance in the crease for the Panthers, having supplanted Sergei Bobrovsky as the Panthers' starter in goal. In those prior eight outings, the 30-year-old Lyon went 6-1-1 with a 1.87 GAA, .943 save percentage and one shutout. While Lyon gets the first look in the playoffs, his hold on the starting gig should probably be considered tenuous at best with Bobrovsky waiting in the wings. | None |
| April 14, 2023 | Lyon stopped 30 of 34 shots in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Hurricanes. - The game had a wild finish -- with Lyon pulled for an extra attacker with over three minutes left in the third period, Carolina scored one empty-net goal only for Florida to answer back with two tallies of their own, before Sebastian Aho put the contest out of reach with a second empty-netter. The loss left the Panthers with the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, and a first-round matchup with the juggernaut Bruins. Lyon still performed admirably in place of Sergei Bobrovsky while making eight straight starts to close out the schedule, going 6-1-1 with a 1.87 GAA and .943 save percentage. Look for Bobrovsky to be between the pipes when the playoffs begin, however. | None |
| April 13, 2023 | Lyon will get the home start versus Carolina on Thursday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports. - Lyon has been red-hot of late, going 6-0-1 while stopping 226 of 237 shots. He has taken over as the Panthers' No. 1 goaltender from Sergei Bobrovsky as this will be his eighth straight start in goal. Lyon is 9-3-2 with a 2.80 GAA and .914 save percentage this season. He will take on the Hurricanes, who need a win to clinch the top spot in the Metropolitan Division standings. | None |
| April 11, 2023 | Lyon stopped 23 shots in Monday's 2-1 overtime loss to Toronto. - The Panthers out-shot the Maple Leafs 46-25 on the night, but Ilya Samsonov was the difference in the game, although Lyon had little chance on either puck that beat him -- one deflected home by Auston Matthews, the other coming in OT on a John Tavares breakaway. Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been suiting up as Lyon's backup the last two games, but Florida's had the luxury of waiting until its No. 1 netminder is 100 percent before using him again, as Lyon has gone 6-0-1 with a 1.55 GAA and .952 save percentage while starting the last seven contests. | None |
| April 10, 2023 | Lyon will defend the home net Monday against Toronto, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports. - Lyon has won his past six outings, having stopped 194 of 203 shots. That includes a 38-save performance in a 3-2 overtime win over the Maple Leafs on March 29. The 30-year-old netminder has a 9-3-1 record this season with a 2.88 GAA and a .916 save percentage. Toronto is tied for seventh in the league this campaign with 3.41 goals per game. | None |
| April 8, 2023 | Lyon made 22 saves in a 4-2 win over Washington on Saturday. - The game was tied 2-2 until the 19-minute mark of the third period, when Matthew Tkachuk scored to deliver the win. Lyon has won a season-high six straight games to help the Panthers keep pace in the Eastern Conference wild card race. The Islanders won 4-0 against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday, and the Penguins defeated the Detroit Red Wings 5-1. | None |
| April 7, 2023 | Lyon made 56 saves in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Senators. - The 56 stops sets a Panthers record for saves in a regulation game, topping the 53 saves Craig Anderson made back in 2008. Lyon has won five straight games with a stellar 1.40 GAA and .961 save percentage while Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been sidelined, and his work between the pipes has kept Florida in a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, just one point ahead of the Penguins. | None |
| April 6, 2023 | Lyon will guard the home goal versus Ottawa on Thursday. - Lyon was fantastic in his last start Tuesday against the Sabres, turning aside 39 of 40 shots en route to a tidy 2-1 victory. He'll try to extend his personal winning streak to five games in a favorable home matchup with a Senators squad that's averaging just 2.64 goals per game on the road this campaign, 26th in the NHL. | None |
| April 5, 2023 | Lyon stopped 39 of 40 shots, leading the Panthers to a 2-1 victory over the Sabres on Tuesday. - The third star of the game, Lyon was sensational, allowing just one goal to Dylan Cozens in the first period. With Sergei Bobrovsky out for the fourth straight game with an illness, Lyon picked up his fourth straight victory, allowing just five goals in that stretch. As Florida is in the middle of a tight playoff push, Lyon could hold onto the starting gig even when Sergei Bobrovsky returns. | None |
| April 2, 2023 | Lyon stopped all 21 shots he faced in Saturday's 7-0 win over Columbus. - The game was never in doubt, as Florida scored multiple goals in each period, but Lyon did have his busiest period in the third as the Blue Jackets tried in vain to spoil his first career NHL shutout. The 30-year-old has won three straight starts while Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been sidelined, and the surge has carried the Panthers into the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference -- although two of those wins have come against teams in the bottom five in the league in the Jackets and Canadiens. | None |
| April 1, 2023 | Lyon will guard the road cage Saturday against the Blue Jackets, per Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site. - Lyon will make a third straight start while Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) remains unavailable. The 30-year-old Lyon is 5-3-1 with an .888 save percentage on the season. He'll face a Columbus team that's lost their last three contests. | None |
| March 29, 2023 | Lyon made 38 saves in Wednesdays' 3-2 overtime win over the Maple Leafs. - With Sergei Bobrovsky feeling under the weather after having lost three consecutive starts in regulation while allowing four-plus goals in each, the Panthers turned to Lyon and were rewarded with his best start of the season. Lyon tied his season best with two goals allowed, despite facing Toronto's top-10 offense. Florida moved within one point of the Penguins for the final playoff spot in the East, and the team will likely opt to ride the hot hand between Lyon and Bobrovsky down the stretch. | None |
| March 22, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 18 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers. - Philadelphia's final goal was scored into an empty net. The second period was especially tough for Lyon as he made his first NHL start since late January, as he gave up four goals on only 11 shots during the frame. It's looking increasingly unlikely that Spencer Knight (personal) will play again this season, but with the Panthers fighting to stay in the playoff picture, Lyon isn't likely to see much work behind Sergei Bobrovsky -- Florida has only one more back-to-back set left on its schedule, March 29-30 in Toronto and Montreal. | None |
| March 21, 2023 | Lyon will guard the road goal Tuesday against Philadelphia, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports. - Lyon has permitted 23 goals on 203 shots in six NHL appearances this season en route to a 3-2-1 record. This will be his first start with the Panthers since a 37-save performance in a 4-3 overtime win over Boston on Jan. 28. The Flyers sit 30th in the league this campaign with 2.61 goals per game. | None |
| March 19, 2023 | Lyon was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Sunday. - Florida returned Mack Guzda to the minors in a corresponding move. Lyon won both of his starts with the Checkers this weekend, allowing just one goal on 35 shots. He has permitted 23 goals on 203 shots at the NHL level this season en route to a 3-2-1 record. Lyon could start this week with the Panthers set to visit Detroit on Monday and play in Philadelphia on Tuesday. | None |
| March 15, 2023 | Lyon was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Wednesday, Colby Guy of Florida Hockey Now reports. - Lyon has a 3-2-1 record, 3.89 GAA and .887 save percentage in six games with Florida this season, but he hasn't appear in an NHL contest since Jan. 28. The 30-year-old also has a 2.62 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 21 outings with Charlotte in 2022-23. Mack Guzda was called up in a corresponding move. | None |
| March 3, 2023 | Lyon was assigned to AHL Charlotte on Friday. - Lyon will probably be back with the Panthers ahead of Saturday's game versus Pittsburgh. He has posted a 3-2-1 record at the NHL level this season with a 3.89 GAA and an .892 save percentage. | None |
| Feb. 22, 2023 | Lyon was called up by Florida on Wednesday. - Lyon has a 3-2-1 record, 3.89 GAA and .887 save percentage in six games with Florida this season. He also has a 2.62 GAA and a .906 save percentage in 21 AHL contests with Charlotte in 2022-23. Spencer Knight was sent to the minors in a corresponding move. | None |
| Feb. 6, 2023 | Lyon was assigned to AHL Charlotte on Monday. - Lyon has a 3-2-1 record with a 3.89 GAA and an .887 save percentage in six games with Florida this season. Sergei Bobrovsky (lower body) and Spencer Knight (upper body) will return to the lineup Monday versus Tampa Bay. | None |
| Jan. 28, 2023 | Lyon stopped 29 of 32 shots in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Kings. - L.A.'s final goal was scored into an empty net with just over a minute left in the third period to put Florida in a 4-2 hole, although the Panthers did manage to get one back before the final horn. Lyon has started five straight games as the team deals with injuries in the crease, and it's exposed the 30-year-old limitations -- he's gone 2-2-1 with a 4.07 GAA and .877 save percentage. Spencer Knight didn't even dress Friday, so it's not yet clear which of Lyon, Knight or the recently promoted Mack Guzda will get the nod against the Bruins on Saturday. | None |
| Jan. 27, 2023 | Lyon will be between the home pipes versus LA on Friday. - Lyon stopped 42 shots Tuesday against Pittsburgh but gave up seven goals as he was making his fourth straight appearance. Lyon is 2-1-1 with a 4.30 GAA and .870 save percentage. He will face the Kings, who are 14th in NHL scoring, averaging 3.18 goals per contest. Lyon will be backed up by Mack Guzda, who was recalled earlier on Friday as Sergei Bobrovsky (lower body) and Spencer Knight (healthy scratch) will not dress. | None |
| Jan. 25, 2023 | Lyon turned aside 42 shots in Tuesday's 7-6 overtime loss to Pittsburgh. - The wild affair saw six goals scored in the first period alone, and three of the pucks that beat Lyon came on Penguins power plays, including Kris Letang's OT winner. The 30-year-old netminder was getting another start with Spencer Knight having just returned from a conditioning stint with AHL Charlotte, but Lyon's .870 save percentage (17 goals on 131 shots) during his four-game stint as the Panthers' No. 1 will have him ticketed for the bench as soon as Knight is deemed ready to go. | None |
| Jan. 24, 2023 | Lyon will guard the road goal versus the Penguins on Tuesday, Penguins radio play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports. - Lyon will start back-to-back games, allowing Spencer Knight a bit more time to get up to speed following his recent injury. Lyon allowed five goals on 25 shots in a loss to the Rangers on Monday, so he remains a risky fantasy play. | None |
| Jan. 23, 2023 | Lyon stopped 20 of 25 shots in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Rangers. - New York's final goal was scored into an empty net. After winning his first two games of the season for Florida, Lyon crashed back to earth with a thud. Spencer Knight returned from AHL Charlotte on Monday but didn't get the start, so look for Lyon to return to the No. 2 role in net starting Tuesday against the Penguins, and eventually get bumped back to Charlotte himself once Sergei Bobrovsky (lower body) is healthy. | None |
| Jan. 21, 2023 | Lyon will defend the home net versus Minnesota on Saturday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports. - The Panthers are down to their third-string goaltender as Sergei Bobrovsky suffered a lower-body injury Thursday and Spencer Knight is at AHL Charlotte, getting in a couple of games as he recovers from an undisclosed injury. Lyon picked up the win versus Montreal on Thursday in relief of Bobrovsky, stopping 23 of 25 shots. He will face the Wild, who have scored 140 goals in 44 games, 21st best in the NHL. | None |
| Jan. 19, 2023 | Lyon made 23 saves in his Florida debut in relief Thursday. He allowed two goals and earned the 6-2 win over Montreal. - He was pressed into duty quickly after Sergei Bobrovsky left the game with a lower-body injury before even facing a shot. With Spencer Knight (undisclosed) on the IR and Bob the Goalie down, Lyon is suddenly the top cat in the litter box for Florida. At 30, he has just 25 NHL appearances under his belt and a career record of 8-7-3 with a .3.12 GAA and .896 save percentage. Lyon was 9-8-1 with a 2.55 GAA and .909 save percentage in 18 games with the Charlotte Checkers of the AHL prior to his call-up. He's not a long-term fantasy solution, but he could be the team's starter for a week or so, depending on the severity of the injuries of the top guys. | None |
| Jan. 10, 2023 | Lyon was recalled from AHL Charlotte on Tuesday, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports. - Lyon will dress as the backup goalie Tuesday against Colorado behind Sergei Bobrovsky. Spencer Knight (undisclosed) won't suit up for the contest and has been moved to injured reserve, according to the NHL media site. | None |
| Dec. 14, 2022 | Lyon was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Wednesday. - Lyon was up with the Panthers as goaltending depth with Spencer Knight battling an illness. With Knight ready to go for Thursday's game versus the Penguins, Lyon's presence was no longer needed. He didn't make an appearance during his time at the NHL level. | None |
| Dec. 8, 2022 | Lyon was called up by Florida on Thursday, per David Dwork of Local 10 Miami. - Lyon has a 6-5-1 record, 2.80 GAA and .903 save percentage in 12 AHL games this season. The 29-year-old has played in 24 career NHL contests, posting a 7-7-3 record, 3.18 GAA and .895 save percentage. Florida already had Spencer Knight and Sergei Bobrovsky on its roster. Nothing has been announced about Knight or Bobrovsky, but if either netminder is unable to play Thursday against Detroit, then Lyon will presumably serve as the backup. | None |
| Oct. 9, 2022 | The Panthers waived Lyon on Sunday, per CapFriendly. - The 29-year-old earned a two-way deal with Florida this offseason but he was never signed to be more than organizational depth behind Sergei Bobrovsky and Spencer Knight. Lyon has appeared in 24 NHL games since the start of the 2017-18 campaign. | None |
| March 12, 2022 | Lyon was reassigned to AHL Charlotte on Saturday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Lyon's demotion suggests Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) will likely be available for Saturday's game versus the Flyers. Lyon will almost certainly remain in the minors as long as Andersen and Antti Raanta remain healthy. | None |
| March 10, 2022 | Lyon was recalled on an emergency basis Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Frederik Andersen is still sidelined with an undisclosed injury, so Lyon will presumably serve as Antti Raanta's backup Thursday against the Avalanche. Lyon will likely return to the minors as soon as Andersen is good to go. | None |
| March 6, 2022 | Lyon will back up Antti Raanta in Sunday's game against Seattle, per Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal. - Lyon has just two NHL appearances this season. He has gone 14-6-2 with a 2.14 GAA and .911 save percentage over 23 AHL Chicago games in 2021-22. The 29-year-old was elevated and will play backup due to Frederik Andersen's (undisclosed) day-to-day status. | None |
| March 5, 2022 | Lyon was called up from AHL Chicago on Saturday under emergency conditions. - Lyon's promotion indicates something may be wrong with one of Frederik Andersen or Antti Raanta, though specific details have yet to surface. The 29-year-old Lyon is likely to slot into a backup role while with the big club. He's 1-0-1 in two appearances with the Hurricanes this season. | None |
| Jan. 13, 2022 | Lyon was assigned to AHL Chicago on Thursday, per CapFriendly. - Lyon seems to have been surpassed by Jack LaFontaine on the Hurricanes' goaltending depth chart. This makes it unlikely Lyon sees much more NHL time this season. | None |
| Jan. 9, 2022 | Lyon stopped 32 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Panthers. - Making his second NHL start of the season, Lyon fell behind 3-1 early in the second period but stood tall down the stretch to give the 'Canes a chance to come back and earn a point. There's been no indication yet how serious Antti Raanta's upper-body injury is, but even if he sticks around for a while, Lyon likely won't see much action behind Frederik Andersen. | None |
| Jan. 8, 2022 | Lyon was recalled from the taxi squad for Saturday's tilt with Florida, Walt Ruff of the Canes' official site reports. - Lyon's promotion could indicate that either Frederik Andersen or Antti Raanta won't be available for Saturday's game. The 29-year-old stopped 27-of-29 shots in his lone NHL appearance this season. | None |
| Jan. 3, 2022 | Lyon was reassigned to AHL Chicago on Monday, per Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer. - Lyon took home the win in his one NHL appearance this season where he allowed two goals and posted a .931 save percentage. He will reprise his role tending the AHL goal where he has posted a 9-1-1 record with a 1.79 GAA and a .929 save percentage. | None |
| Nov. 14, 2021 | The Hurricanes reassigned Lyon to AHL Chicago on Sunday. - The 28-year-old impressed in his first start of the season Saturday, stopping 27 of 29 shots and earning the win against St. Louis. Lyon loses his roster spot now that Antti Raanta (concussion) is apparently ready to play again. | None |
| Nov. 13, 2021 | Lyon will be the starting goalie for Saturday's game against the Blues, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - The 28-year-old will make his first start of 2021 after being called up last Sunday. Lyon played six games for the Flyers last season and posted a 3.33 GAA and .893 save percentage. | None |
| Nov. 7, 2021 | Lyon will be called up from AHL Chicago, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Lyon will presumably back up Frederik Andersen on Tuesday in Tampa with Antti Raanta dealing with an upper-body injury. Lyon has yet to make his Hurricanes debut after posting a 1-3-1 record, 3.33 GAA and .893 save percentage with the Flyers last season. | None |
