Detroit Red Wings call up goaltender Sebastian Cossa under emergency conditions
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.

Fever's Stephanie White rips referees for ‘double standard' in loss to Wings
The post Fever's Stephanie White rips referees for 'double standard' in loss to Wings appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Indiana Fever engineered a furious rally in the fourth quarter but ultimately fell short, absorbing a tough one-point defeat, 81-80, to the Dallas Wings at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Tuesday. The Fever clawed back from a 17-point deficit and had the chance to steal the win with 1.7 seconds left. Kelsey Mitchell, however, missed her pull-up jumpshot. They fell to 18-15, losing three of their last four games. After the loss, Fever coach Stephanie White let off steam, particularly on the referees. 'There's a double standard there, certainly. But, you know, if it's going to be physical, and you're going to allow us to be physical, then allow both teams to be physical. If you're going to call the holds, and you're going to call the chucks, then call it both ways. So, I mean, I think that we've been pretty consistent in what we're asking for, and I didn't feel like it was consistent,' said White in a report from Indianapolis Star's Chloe Peterson. The game became physical as the Fever mounted their fiery comeback. As Peterson noted, the 48-year-old White approached the referees multiple times during the game to complain about the officiating. Indiana shot four more free throws than Dallas and was whistled for two fewer fouls. The Fever once again played without Caitlin Clark, who's still nursing a groin injury. She missed her 20th game of the season. The team was led by Mitchell, who finished with 24 points. Natasha Howard chipped in a double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds on top of three blocks. White, who steered the Fever to the finals in 2015, pointed out that Mitchell deserves better from the referees. 'I think Kelsey Mitchell, number one, is held or chucked on every freaking possession and never gets a call off the ball,' claimed White, who also said Aliyah Boston 'is the worst officiated post player in the league.' The Fever will face the Washington Mystics on Friday.
