Gibson will guard the goal in Friday's home game against the Flames, Eric Stephens of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson has struggled recently, allowing at least three goals in three of his last four starts while posting a 1-2-1 record over that span. The American netminder will look to right the ship Friday and pick up his 12th victory of the season in a home matchup with a Flames team that's 9-4-4 on the road this campaign.

Gibson allowed three goals on 27 shots in a 4-1 loss to Vegas on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
That's the third dud in four starts for Gibson. He shut out the Penguins in his last outing, but allowed seven goals in a pair of losses to the Rangers and Capitals prior to that. As such, the American netminder is stuck on just 11 wins through 29 appearances this year, though his .921 save percentage has helped soften the blow.

Gibson will start between the posts in Wednesday's home game against Vegas, Eric Stephens of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson was unbeatable in his last start, turning aside all 29 shots he faced en route to an impressive road victory and his first shutout of the season Saturday against the Penguins. The American netminder will look to stay sharp and acquire his 12th win of the campaign Wednesday in a tough home matchup with a Golden Knights team that's averaging 3.19 goals per game on the road this season, fourth in the NHL.

Gibson earned his first shutout of the season, stopping 29 shots and beating the Penguins, 4-0, on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
The Pittsburgh native came into this matchup with terrible numbers against his hometown team, but that obviously changed Saturday. The Penguins were sloppy with the puck most of the night, yet still generated some quality chances. That led to some nice saves for Gibson, including an incredible diving stop with his blocker on Sidney Crosby during the second period. With this shutout, Gibson gets rid of the nasty taste in his mouth from giving up seven goals in his previous two games and heads into the Christmas break with a 11-11-4 mark and .922 save percentage.

Gibson will start Saturday against the Penguins, The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Pittsburgh native will be hoping the third time is a charm in his hometown, as he's gone winless in the Steel City in his previous two career starts there. Aside from a one-goal, 29-save victory against St. Louis on Dec. 14, the Ducks' extended road trip hasn't been kind to Gibson, as the seven goals on just 59 shots in a pair of losses to the Rangers and Capitals will attest. He'll almost assuredly have his work cut out for him Saturday, as the Pens have averaged an absurd (and league-high) 38.3 shots per game at home this year.

Gibson saved just 28 of 32 shots during Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
With all the injuries Anaheim's dealt with this season, it's amazing the Ducks are still 14-13-8 and Gibson is maintaining serviceable fantasy numbers. The American backstop sports a .920 save percentage and 2.88 GAA through 27 games, and if there's ever a fully healthy lineup in front of him, Gibson's value could skyrocket. Still, at this stage of the game, it's not out of the question to be selective with his matchups for the time being.

Gibson will start between the pipes in Tuesday's road game against the Rangers, per Eric Stephens of The Orange County Register.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson wasn't great in his last start, surrendering three goals on 27 shots en route to a 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals on Saturday. The American netminder will look to shake off that sub-par performance and bounce back Tuesday in a tough road matchup with a Rangers team that's 13-5-3 at home this season.

Gibson gave up three goals on 27 shots in Saturday's overtime loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Gibson came up huge on a few occasions to help the Ducks secure a point. The 24-year-old now owns a 10-10-4 record with a .921 save percentage on the season. Gibson has been solid of late and is one of the best fantasy netminders you can own. Make sure you get him in your lineup, as he's starting almost every night and giving his team a great chance to win.

Gibson will start in goal on the road against the Capitals on Saturday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.comreports.
EDGE Analysis
The Capitals surprisingly only average 29 shots per game, but a team shooting percentage of 10.8 -- ranked fifth in the NHL --  at least partially compensates for the low volume. Gibson will be chasing his third consecutive win, having prevailed against the Hurricanes and Blues in his last two. It's clear that the Ducks have shifted into a better gear since captain Ryan Getzlaf returned to action Monday night, and Gibson is reaping the rewards.

Gibson saved 29 of 30 shots during Thursday's 3-1 win over St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
Two games with Ryan Getzlaf back in the lineup, and two wins for Gibson. Don't underestimate how important a true No. 1 center is to success, and the Ducks have been -- and still are -- riddled with injuries. Surprisingly, the poor fantasy setup hasn't considerably hurt Gibson's value. The 24-year-old American has 10 wins and a .922 save percentage, so with goals up across the league, his 2.83 GAA is also a serviceable mark. Don't forget, Gibson's also been a matchup-proof option in the past.
