John Gibson Defended by Coach Todd McLellan After Loss to Blues

Detroit Red Wings goaltender John Gibson was defended by head coach Todd McLellan after allowing five goals on 15 shots in a 5-4 collapse against the St. Louis Blues. Despite his stats taking a hit, McLellan stated Gibson had no chance on the goals, which included two lasers and a tip-in. Gibson holds a 4-5-1 record with a 3.37 GAA and .860 save percentage this season, as Detroit looks for him to regain his elite form from last December.
