Secures two-year deal
Lyon inked a two-year, $3 million contract with Buffalo on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Lyon put up decent numbers in Detroit last season, going 14-9-1 with a 2.81 GAA, .896 save percentage and one shutout in 30 regular-season outings. The problem for Lyon was the crowded goalie room with the Red Wings, a situation that won't be much different in Buffalo, as Devon Levi is pushing to be a full-time NHL option.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2020
2018
Lyon had a remarkable season for the Wings in 2023-24, becoming the starter after inking a deal to be the team's third stringer. With 39 previous NHL games on his resume, the journeyman played in 44 games last season, delivering a 21-18-5 record, 3.05 GAA and .904 save percentage. Lyon carried that momentum into the IIHF Worlds for Team USA, stopping 47 of 50 shots through two tournament games before suffering a finger injury. If he's healthy, Lyon will battle Ville Husso to back up newcomer Cam Talbot and get 25-plus starts in the role. Worst case, the Wings carry both Lyon and Husso into the season, and the game-splits all but eliminate any fantasy value for both men.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Might join Sabres
Lyon looks set to sign with Buffalo on Tuesday, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
ANALYSIS
Lyon put up decent numbers during the 2024-25 campaign, posting a 14-9-1 record to go with a 2.81 GAA, one shutout and an .896 save percentage. Still, with the Wings deploying three netminders most of the year, starts were limited for Lyon, as he made just 30 appearances during the season. While the 32-year-old backstop should have a chance to compete during training camp, he's far from a lock to become the starter over Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen.
