After a 50 save performance in the Detroit Red Wings 2-1 overtime loss Saturday evening, a few things became clear in regards to Jonathan Bernier‘s future in Detroit.
One, he should be re-signed, which would stabilize the Red Wings’ goaltending issue going into next season.
Two, he’s due for a nice raise.
Though Thomas Greiss has been better as of late, Bernier has been the stronger goalie not only this season, but last as well when Jimmy Howard ran into his own struggles.
