Dostal will start against the Devils on Friday.

Dostal will get the nod for the tail-end of Anaheim's back-to-back after John Gibson got the start in San Jose on Thursday. Dostal took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 28 shots against the Predators on Sunday as the Ducks fell by a score of 4-2. Dostal record now sits at a lowly 8-15-1 on the year to go along with an .897 SV%. He draws another difficult matchup on Friday as the Ducks find themselves as +240 underdogs at home against the Devils.

Zellweger is the likely replacement on the Ducks' blueline for Cam Fowler, who left Thursday's contest in the first period after taking a puck to the face. The 20-year-old Zellweger has 37 points (12G / 25A) in 44 games with the San Diego Gulls of the AHL.

The 29-year-old has struggled when called upon this season with his 9-5-2 record, 3.55 GAA and .892 SV%.
