Gibson will guard the road goal versus the Kraken on Wednesday, Mike Benton of the Kraken Audio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson will get the nod Wednesday after Lukas Dostal took a 3-2 loss against the Kraken in Anaheim on Monday. Gibson is 3-0-1 this season, and he'll face a Seattle squad that has averaged 2.77 goals per game.

Gibson yielded three goals on 32 shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson started consecutive games for the first time this season, but it ended up resulting in his first defeat. The 31-year-old couldn't protect a 2-0 lead, letting the Sabres pull even late in the second period before giving up a goal to Jiri Kulich on a rebound in overtime. Gibson is now 3-0-1 with a 2.70 GAA and a .906 save percentage over four appearances. Lukas Dostal has played too well to be completely relegated to the backup role -- expect the Ducks to operate a timeshare in the crease when both Gibson and Dostal are healthy. The team's next game is Monday versus the Kraken.

Gibson was the first goaltender off the ice at morning skate, per Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News, indicating he will patrol the home crease versus Buffalo on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson will make his second straight start and fourth in the last six games. He missed the first month of the season recovering from an appendectomy before returning to action Nov. 10 against the Blue Jackets. The veteran netminder is 3-0-0 and has given up eight goals on 85 shots (.906 save percentage) since returning to full health. Gibson will face the Sabres, who are averaging 3.21 goals per game.

Gibson stopped 18 of 20 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

The Blackhawks weren't able to get much going on offense outside of a pair of Jason Dickinson goals. Gibson faced his lightest workload of the season to earn his third straight win, and he's allowed a total of eight goals on 85 shots so far. The 31-year-old netminder has alternated started with Lukas Dostal since Gibson was activated from injured reserve, and that pattern seems likely to continue. It could benefit both netminders by helping them avoid being overworked. The Ducks' next two games are at home -- they play the Sabres on Friday and the Kraken on Monday.

Gibson will guard the road goal versus the Blackhawks on Tuesday, Greg Boysen of CHGO Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson will get the second half of a back-to-back after Lukas Dostal picked up a 4-2 win over the Stars on Monday. Through two starts this season, Gibson has been solid, winning both outings while allowing six goals on 65 shots. The Blackhawks are a soft matchup, but the Ducks don't tend to score a lot either, so they could struggle to offer sufficient support.

Gibson gave up four goals on 25 shots in Friday's 6-4 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson has won both of his starts since returning from an appendectomy, but this wasn't a pretty effort. The Red Wings' power play converted three times, and it took a strong third period for the Ducks to pull off a comeback. With Lukas Dostal struggling recently, Gibson has a chance to stake his claim to at least a timeshare role. The Ducks' next two games are on the road with stops in Dallas on Monday and Chicago on Tuesday -- whichever goalie starts the latter game will be a strong streaming option.

Gibson will get the starting nod at home versus Detroit on Friday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson made his season debut Sunday after missing the first month of the season recovering from an appendectomy. He made 38 saves in a 4-2 win over Columbus, and after getting Wednesday night off, he will once again get the start in goal. The Red Wings are having trouble lighting the lamp, as they are averaging only 2.47 goals per game this season.

Gibson stopped 38 of 40 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson missed all of the preseason and the first month of the regular season while recovering from an appendectomy. He looked great in his return, though the Ducks' defense didn't make his job any easier. Gibson is no stranger to heavy workloads -- over the last three seasons, the Ducks are tied for the most shots against per game at 35.0, and they're giving up slightly more (35.3) per game to begin 2024-25. Lukas Dostal has handled a starter's workload in Gibson's absence, but this could very well turn into a timeshare, which might yield the best results for both goalies. James Reimer is also on the roster and the Ducks are under no pressure to waive him until they need an extra skater, as they are far closer to the cap floor than the ceiling. A clearer picture of Anaheim's goaltending plans could come this week as they host the Golden Knights on Wednesday and the Red Wings on Friday.

Gibson will be between the pipes for Sunday home's matchup versus Columbus, Derek Lee of The Hockey News relays.

EDGE Analysis

Gibson will make his first appearance of the 2024-25 campaign Sunday after undergoing an appendectomy in September. The 31-year-old could push James Reimer out of the goaltender rotation now that the former is healthy. Gibson went 13-27-2 with an .888 save percentage and a 3.54 GAA over 46 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Gibson (abdomen) has been removed from injured reserve ahead of Friday's game versus the Wild, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Lukas Dostal was already confirmed to start in goal, but Gibson is eligible to dress as the backup. The 31-year-old Gibson missed the first month of the season while recovering from an appendectomy. Dostal has played well in his absence, so Gibson is unlikely to see the same kind of workload he's been able to earn in previous seasons.
