Red Wings Win Shootout Against Sabres

Sebastian Cossa made a memorable NHL debut for the Detroit Red Wings, stepping in for Ville Husso and helping the team secure a 6-5 shootout victory over the Buffalo Sabres. Despite allowing two goals, Cossa's performance was pivotal as he stopped 12 of 14 shots and 2 of 3 in the shootout, ending the Red Wings' five-game winless streak and extending the Sabres' skid to seven games. The Red Wings rallied from a two-goal deficit in the third period with goals from Andrew Copp and Moritz Seider, followed by a shootout victory with contributions from Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond. Cossa, Detroit's goaltender of the future and the 15th overall pick in 2021, was called up due to injuries to Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon. This game marked a significant moment in his career, demonstrating his potential as a top prospect. Coach Derek Lalonde praised Cossa for his resilience in a challenging situation against a skilled opponent.
