Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Available as backup Thursday
Rotowire
Mrazek (head) will be available for Thursday's road game against the Panthers as Cam Talbot's backup, NHL.com reports.
Mrazek has missed the last seven games due to his head injury, but it's encouraging that he'll at least be able to dress for Thursday's matchup. While Talbot will serve as the starter Thursday, it seems possible that Mrazek will draw the start in the second half of the back-to-back set Friday against Tampa Bay, unless the Red Wings decide to roll with Alex Lyon.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Remains unavailable
Rotowire
Mrazek (head) has to get through a few practices before he returns to the lineup, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com on Thursday.
Mrazek has been out of the lineup since March 24 after leaving a game against Utah early. An exact timeline for his return remains unclear, but he probably won't be ready for Sunday's home matchup versus Florida. Mrazek has a 12-21-2 record with a 3.35 GAA and an .891 save percentage through 38 appearances between Detroit and Chicago this season.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Set to miss additional time
Rotowire
Head coach Todd McLellan said Monday that Mrazek (head) is expected to get back on the ice this week but is still "a ways from returning," Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Mrazek has missed the last three games due to his head injury, but it's encouraging that he's slated to resume skating this week. Assuming he doesn't face any setbacks upon increasing his activity level, it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to action before the end of the regular season.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Remains unavailable
Rotowire
Mrazek (head) hasn't resumed skating, and there's no update on his status, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports Saturday.
Mrazek sustained the injury early into Monday's 5-1 win over Utah and will miss his third straight game versus Boston on Saturday. It remains unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon will share the goaltending duties until Mrazek receives clearance to play.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Won't play Thursday
Rotowire
Mrazek (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Senators, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Mrazek was injured Monday versus Utah and will miss at least two games after being ruled out for Thursday. Cam Talbot (undisclosed) is a possibility to face the Senators after missing Tuesday's game against the Avalanche, but it's possible the Red Wings will have to dress Alex Lyon and Sebastian Cossa again Thursday. Mrazek's status for Saturday versus the Bruins has not yet been revealed.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Not available Tuesday
Rotowire
Mrazek (undisclosed) will miss Tuesday's game in Colorado, per Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.
Mrazek, who sustained the injury during Monday's 5-1 win over Utah, will be evaluated when the Red Wings return to Detroit on Wednesday. He has a 12-21-2 record, 3.35 GAA and .891 save percentage in 32 appearances between Chicago and Detroit this season. Cam Talbot or Alex Lyon will start Tuesday, though Talbot seems like the more probable choice after Lyon logged 58:22 of ice time in relief of Mrazek on Monday.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Injured in Utah
Rotowire
Mrazek (undisclosed) will not return to Monday's game in Utah.
Mrazek was injured less than two minutes into the contest and was immediately replaced in goal by Alex Lyon. The Red Wings have Cam Talbot on the roster in addition to Lyon, so they wouldn't need to recall a goaltender from the minors if Mrazek is forced to miss any time. Detroit concludes its road trip Tuesday in Colorado, so an update on the 33-year-old's status may not be known until the club returns home.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Starting Monday
Rotowire
Mrazek will guard the road goal versus Utah on Monday, according to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.
Since being acquired from Chicago at the trade deadline, Mrazek has a 2-2-0 record with one shutout, a 2.51 GAA and a .901 save percentage in four starts with the Red Wings. Utah sits 21st in the league with 2.87 goals per game in 2024-25, and the team has won two straight games going into Monday's matchup against Detroit.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Strong effort in loss
Rotowire
Mrazek made 22 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Capitals on Tuesday.
Mrazek was on fire until well into the third period when the wheels came off a bit. The Caps got the lead at 8:16 of that frame, and they put up three in 7:11. Mrazek is 2-2-0 with one shutout, a 2.51 GAA and a .901 save percentage in four starts with the Red Wings. He has gotten every start since his arrival in Motown, and Cam Talbot has taken a back seat. Take advantage of Mrazek's opportunity.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Tough task Tuesday
Rotowire
Mrazek will patrol the road crease against the Capitals on Tuesday, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Mrazek posted an 18-save shutout in Sunday's 3-0 win over Vegas. Since being acquired in a trade from Chicago, the veteran netminder is 2-1-0 with a .920 save percentage and a 2.01 GAA across three contests. He has a tough assignment Tuesday against a Washington club that has generated 3.63 goals per game this season, the best mark in the NHL.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Tends shutout Sunday
Rotowire
Mrazek stopped all 18 shots on goal in Sunday's 3-0 shutout win against the Golden Knights.
Despite potential fatigue from starting the previous two games, Mrazek's third outing in a row was his first shutout of the season. Overall, he has a 12-20-2 record with a 3.33 GAA and a .892 save percentage. Sunday's shutout is an encouraging sign for Mrazek as he only had one shutout across 95 appearances with the Blackhawks over the previous two years. However, Mrazek has struggled for the majority of this season and is a difficult option to trust in fantasy. Mrazek is also one of three goaltenders on Detroit's roster and after playing the past three games, it is likely either Cam Talbot or Alex Lyon will start seeing action again soon.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Facing Golden Knights
Rotowire
Mrazek will patrol the home crease against Vegas on Sunday, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com.
Mrazek will make his third straight start after going 1-1-0 with 51 saves on 57 shots over his last two outings. He has posted a record of 11-20-2 with a 3.43 GAA and an .890 save percentage through 35 appearances between Detroit and Chicago this season. Vegas ranks fifth in the league with 3.35 goals per game in 2024-25 and lost 4-3 in a shootout to Buffalo on Saturday.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Concedes three goals
Rotowire
Mrazek made 28 saves on 31 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
After tending a clean first period, Mrazek allowed three tallies in the second stanza, which would be enough for Carolina to win. He has registered an 11-20-2 record with a 3.43 GAA and an .890 save percentage through 35 appearances between Detroit and Chicago this season. Friday's game marked the 33-year-old goaltender's first loss with the Red Wings since being acquired at the trade deadline. Mrazek had the best statistical season of his career with Detroit during the 2015-16 campaign. However, he finds himself in a tricky situation in fantasy as he will likely rotate starts with Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon. There are safer options than Mrazek between the pipes in fantasy, especially with the playoffs looming.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Starting again Friday
Rotowire
Mrazek will guard the road goal versus the Hurricanes on Friday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.
Mrazek won his Red Wings debut, stopping 23 of 26 shots versus the Sabres on Wednesday. The Red Wings are carrying three goalies, with Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon also in the mix, but it looks like head coach Todd McLellan may be taking a win-and-stay-in approach to the crease. This will be a tough matchup for Mrazek, as the Hurricanes have won five straight games while scoring 15 times in that span.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Nabs win in debut
Rotowire
Mrazek stopped 23 shots in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Sabres.
The veteran goalie made his first start since being acquired by the Red Wings at the trade deadline and got more than enough offensive support to get him in the win column for the first time in over a month. Mrazek had a rough end to his Chicago tenure, giving up five goals in three of his last four outings, but with Cam Talbot having lost four straight starts and Alex Lyon looking unimpressive of late, the door could be open for Detroit's newest netminder to see a significant workload as the team tries to push its way into a playoff spot.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Set for debut Wednesday
Rotowire
Mrazek will make his Red Wings debut between the home pipes against the Sabres on Wednesday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Mrazek went 10-19-2 with a 3.46 GAA in his 33 appearances for the Blackhawks this season and will now play his first game for the Red Wings since 2017-18. Selected by the organization in the fifth round of the 2010 NHL Draft, the Czech backstop will have to split the workload with Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon, which means his opportunities to start may be limited the rest of the way.

Red Wings' Petr Mrazek: Heading to Detroit
Rotowire
Mrazek and Craig Smith were traded to Detroit from Chicago on Friday in exchange for Joe Veleno.
Mrazek hasn't been particularly sharp in recent weeks, as he's gone 3-5-1 with a 3.98 GAA and an .885 save percentage over 10 appearances since the start of the calendar year. The Blackhawks recently added another goaltender by acquiring Spencer Knight as part of the trade that sent Seth Jones to Florida, and Mrazek will have a chance for a fresh start while returning to the team that drafted him in 2010. Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon have been relatively solid for the Red Wings this season, so Mrazek may not have an opportunity to carve out significant playing time unless the team makes another move ahead of Friday's trade deadline.
Blackhawks' Petr Mrazek: Chased after ugly first period
Rotowire
Mrazek allowed five goals on 15 shots in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Golden Knights.
Mrazek was able to avoid the loss, as the Blackhawks put up enough of a fight to cover his damage. The 33-year-old still had an ugly outing, which lasted just one period before Arvid Soderblom took over in goal for the final two frames. Mrazek has allowed five goals in three of his last four games, going 1-3-0 in that span. For the season, he remains at 10-19-2 with a 3.46 GAA and an .890 save percentage. If his performance continues to slip, it may open the door for Soderblom to challenge for the No. 1 job.

Blackhawks' Petr Mrazek: Expected to face Vegas
Rotowire
Mrazek is slated to start on the road against Vegas on Thursday, according to Scott Powers of The Athletic.
Mrazek will try to rebound after allowing five goals on 21 shots (.762 save percentage) in his last start Saturday against the Blue Jackets. He's 10-19-2 with a 3.33 GAA and an .894 save percentage across 32 outings this season. Vegas is tied for seventh in the NHL with 3.26 goals per game in 2024-25.
