Gibson is set to start on the road against Vegas on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson had a 14-31-8 record, 3.99 GAA and .899 save percentage in 53 contests last season. He'll naturally aim to do better in 2023-24, but Vegas, which has already scored eight goals over its first two contests, is one of the toughest opponents for goaltenders.

Gibson (upper body) is fine after leaving Friday's game against the Kings in the second period and should be ready for the start of the regular season, according to Eric Stephens of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson left at the 8:40 mark of the second period, but his exit appears to have been precautionary. He had a tough season behind a porous Anaheim defense last season, going 14-31-8 with a 3.99 GAA and .899 save percentage. The Ducks should be better this season, but they would have to improve a lot to make Gibson a viable fantasy asset in 2023-24.

Gibson exited Friday's preseason game versus the Kings with an upper-body injury.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson's absence may just be precautionary, but that won't be known until the Ducks provide an update. The 30-year-old netminder is expected to once again receive the lion's share of the start for Anaheim in 2023-24. If he misses time to begin the season, Alex Stalock and Lukas Dostal would likely split the goaltending duties.

EDGE Analysis
Gibson returned as the backup for Tuesday's game versus the Canucks. He'll make his 53rd appearance of the season Thursday in the Ducks' season finale. He's struggled to a 14-30-8 record with a 3.99 GAA and an .899 save percentage behind a terrible defense this season.

Gibson is not suffering from a lower-body injury, but instead is sidelined by an illness for Wednesday's game versus the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
It's encouraging that Gibson's injury from Saturday hasn't resurfaced, though he'll still be out for this tough matchup. It's unclear if he'll be healthy enough to suit up for Saturday's game in Arizona.

Gibson (lower body) won't suit up for Wednesday's game versus the Oilers, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson was able to back up Lukas Dostal on Sunday, but it appears the injury Gibson suffered Saturday in Edmonton has popped back up. It's unclear if he'll be ready to go for a weekend back-to-back when the Ducks visit the Coyotes on Saturday before hosting the Avalanche on Sunday.

Gibson's (lower body) status for Wednesday's game is unclear, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson left Saturday's contest against Edmonton because of the injury, but he then served as the backup Sunday and took part in Tuesday's practice. However, Anaheim called up goaltender Olle Eriksson Ek on Wednesday, which might be an indication that Gibson's availability is in doubt. The 29-year-old goaltender has a 14-30-8 record, 3.99 GAA and .899 save percentage in 52 outings this season.
