DENVER — A day after losing Petr Mrazek to injury, the Detroit Red Wings called up goaltending prospect Sebastian Cossa.
The team listed the call-up as under emergency conditions, though both Alex Lyon and Cam Talbot are also on the team. A team can only designate a call-up as an emergency if it does not have the required personnel available at a certain spot, such as the two goaltenders needed to dress for a game. The Wings did not hold a morning skate Tuesday at Ball Arena, ahead of their evening game against the Colorado Avalanche.
Lyon was in net for Monday's 5-1 victory at Utah Hockey Club, taking over after Mrazek suffered an undisclosed injury 1:36 into the game. Immediately following that game, coach Todd McLellan indicated Talbot would start against the Avalanche.

This is Cossa's second stint of the season with the Wings. The No. 15 selection from the 2021 draft won his NHL debut on Dec. 9 against the Buffalo Sabres, including turning away two of three shootout attempts.
Cossa, 22, has posted a 19-11-5 record with a 2.38 goals-against average, a 0.913 save percentage and one shutout in 35 appearances with the Griffins during the 2024-25 season. Cossa spent the entire 2023-24 campaign with the Griffins, logging a 22-9-9 record with a 2.41 goals-against average, a 0.913 save percentage and two shutouts in 40 regular-season appearances.
