Red Wings’ John Gibson, Cam Talbot combine to blank Devils

John Gibson and Cam Talbot combined for a shutout and the Detroit Red Wings defeated the host New Jersey Devils 3-0 on Sunday night in Newark, N.J.

Gibson stopped all 21 shots he faced in the first two periods. But the Devils' Timo Meier knocked Detroit's Lucas Raymond into Gibson late in the second period. Cam Talbot relieved Gibson, whose injury was undisclosed, to begin the third period and made 10 saves.

It was the Red Wings' first combined shutout since March 2019 (Jonathan Bernier and Jimmy Howard).
