Gibson is slated to start at home against Washington on Thursday, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has a 4-9-0 record, 2.64 GAA and .912 save percentage in 15 contests this season. He's struggled over his last six appearances, posting an 0-5-0 record with a 3.32 GAA and an .889 save percentage. Playing against the Capitals might help end that slump -- Washington ranks 31st offensively this year with just 2.32 goals per game.

Gibson allowed two goals on 26 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks. The third goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has lost five of his last six outings, with the lone exception being a relief appearance in which he didn't record a decision. Brock Boeser scored in the first period and Elias Pettersson had the decisive goal early in the third. Gibson's down to 4-9-0 with a 2.64 GAA and a .912 save percentage. He's trending in the wrong direction after a solid first month of the season, but Lukas Dostal has struggled in limited action lately, so Gibson's starting role is not in question.

Gibson will protect the road goal versus the Canucks on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson draws a tough assignment this time out, facing one of the strongest offenses and power plays in the league. The 30-year-old has given up 16 goals on 136 shots over his last five games, taking the loss in four of those contests, so he's not a particularly safe fantasy option for this matchup.

Gibson stopped eight of 10 shots in relief of Lukas Dostal in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
The Oilers backed off a bit after chasing Dostal, though Gibson's numbers weren't pretty either. Gibson has lost his last four decisions and allowed 16 goals over his last five outings, erasing a large portion of his strong start to the campaign. The 30-year-old is now at a 2.69 GAA and a .911 save percentage with a 4-8-0 record through 14 outings. The Ducks have another tough road matchup ahead when they visit the Canucks on Tuesday.

Gibson made 26 saves in a 5-2 loss to the Kings on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The Ducks have lost five straight. Gibson has lost four of them. The glass slipper may be off for this early-season surprising team, but Gibson somehow manages to maintain solid numbers. He has a 2.64 GAA and .914 save percentage, despite a 4-8-0 record. If you need wins, you may need to look elsewhere.

Gibson will be in the home crease versus LA on Friday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson is 4-7-0 but his peripherals have been outstanding this season as he has a 2.43 GAA and .921 save percentage. Gibson was 0-2-0 versus the Kings last season, giving up nine goals on 75 shots. The Kings are second in NHL scoring this season, averaging 3.94 goals per contest.

Gibson gave up four goals on 28 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has allowed nine goals during his three-game losing streak. He gave up the decisive tally to Alex Newhook with 3:20 left in the third period of this contest. Gibson is at 4-7-0 with a 2.43 GAA and a .921 save percentage over 12 starts, but any slip in play is concerning given his poor numbers over the last few years. He's also started five of the last six contests after initially splitting time with Lukas Dostal evenly in October, presumably to keep Gibson fresher for longer. The Ducks' next game is a challenging matchup against the Kings on Friday.

Gibson will be in goal versus Montreal at home Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has dropped two straight but can't be completely blamed for the losses, having posted a decent 2.60 GAA and .925 save percentage in that pair of appearances. The Pittsburgh native should continue to see the majority of the starts for the Ducks this season ahead of backup Lukas Dostal.

Gibson saved 28 of 31 shots in a 3-1 loss to St. Louis on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson surrendered over two goals for the first time in six outings this month. While his record in 2023-24 is now a subpar 4-6-0, he's been excelling for Anaheim, posting a 2.27 GAA and a .926 save percentage in 11 contests. The Ducks just aren't an especially good offensive team -- they're averaging 2.83 goals per game -- so Gibson is likely going to continue to struggle to get wins even if he performs well.

Gibson will patrol the crease at home Sunday against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has been on fire of late; he's given up two or fewer goals in six consecutive outings, posting a stellar 1.71 GAA and .945 save percentage during that span. The 30-year-old netminder has allowed three or fewer goals in each of his 10 appearances this season. He owns a .929 save percentage on the year despite a lackluster 4-5-0 record.
