Gibson has been sidelined with a groin injury since October 30th. Since then, the Ducks signed Ilya Bryzgalov to be Frederik Andersen’s backup, which pushes Gibson back to the minors. Whether or not he gets back to the NHL this season will be decided on how he performs in Norfolk and how Bryz does with Anaheim. Regardless, returning to the minors is probably best for the 21-year-olds development.
Gibson was with the team today, but did not practice with them. He went onto the ice after and took shots for the first time since suffering the groin injury. He is still a ways away from being ready, but with the addition of Ilya Bryzgalov, he is expected to go to the AHL anyways.
With Henrik Lundqvist getting the call last night, it looks like it will be Talbot tonight in Edmonton. He allowed three goals on 34 shots in a loss to the Red Wings in his last outing. Even though he is 1-3-0 with a 3.06 GAA and .895 SV% on the road, if you need a Sunday spot-start, you won’t find a better option than this.
Gibson skated for the first time since suffering a groin injury on October 30th. Gibson said “tomorrow is a big day to see how he responds to today’s practice.” Gibson remains without a timeline and is expected to go back to the AHL when he returns to full health.
The Anaheim Ducks recently brought in veteran goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov so the expectation is that Gibson will get sent down and play the remainder of the season with Norfolk (AHL). Gibson played well, going 2-2-0 with 2.28 GAA and .927 SV% before getting hurt, but it looks like the Ducks believe it will be best for his development if he heads back to the AHL. Obviously, how long he stays down there will all depend on injuries and the play of Bryzgalov and Frederik Andersen, as well as Gibson’s with Norfolk.
