Gibson allowed two goals on 33 shots in the Ducks loss to the Senators on Wednesday. He has won four of his previous seven starts while posting a 2.71 GAA and .914 SV%. Tonight he is expected to be backed-up by Frederik Andersen, so this will likely be the end of a string of consecutive starts for Gibson. Gibson has gone 2-3-0 with a 2.99 GAA and .899 SV% at home.
Gibson allowed three goals on 38 shots in the Ducks shootout win over the Red Wings on Monday. With Frederik Andersen still not quite ready, Gibson will go for his fourth-straight win. He has not faced the Senators this season, but has gone 4-2-0 with a 3.02 GAA and .903 SV% since being recalled.
Chiarot will be out until early-April after undergoing hand surgery. With Chiarot out, Jay Harrison will draw into the lineup if Dustin Byfuglien doesn’t go back to defense. The final lineup decision will come in Tuesday’s morning skate.
Gibson made 26 saves on 27 shots in the Ducks 2-1 win over the Oilers on Saturday. With Frederik Andersen still not ready, the Ducks will go with Gibson tonight. Since being recalled he has gone 3-2-0 with a 3.07 GAA and .899 SV%. He would face a Red Wings team who are 4-2-1 while averaging 3.00 goals per game in February.
The Ducks recalled Jason LaBarbera this morning, which suggests that Frederik Andersen is not ready and Gibson will go tonight. He made 26 saves on 27 shots in the Ducks 2-1 win over the Oilers on Saturday. Since being recalled he has gone 3-2-0 with a 3.07 GAA and .899 SV%. He would face a Red Wings team who are 4-2-1 while averaging 3.00 goals per game in February.
Chiarot was reportedly spotted wearing a cast and sling on his arm, which suggests that he will be out for a lengthy period of time. Expect a full update in the next 24 hours.
John Gibson is coming off a win in his last start against Calgary. Gibson is sporting a .906 save% and a 2.95 GAA on the season.
Ducks
Gibson allowed four goals on 32 shots in the Ducks loss to the Lightning on Wednesday. He has allowed a combined nine goals on 60 shots (.850 SV%) in his last two starts. In four starts on the road this season, Gibson has gone 2-2-0 with a 2.65 GAA and .925 SV%.
Gibson gave up five goals on 28 shots in the Ducks 5-3 loss to the Capitals on Sunday. Despite the rough outing, Frederik Andersen is not quite ready, so Gibson will make his third consecutive start. He will take on a Lightning team who has gone 3-3-2 while averaging 3.13 goals per game in February.
Gibson stopped 35 of 36 shots in the Ducks win in Carolina on Thursday. It was a great return to the NHL for Gibson, who appears to have drawn the Capitals at home tonight. He catches a break with Justin Peters opposing him, but the Capitals ninth ranked offence shouldn’t be taken lightly.

Gibson stopped 15 of 18 shots after replacing Ilya Bryzgalov in the Ducks loss in Florida on Tuesday. Gibson comes into play with a 2-2-0 record, 2.65 GAA and .915 SV% in four NHL starts this season. He makes for a strong start tonight vs. the 19-26-7 Hurricanes.

Gibson, 21, has gone 6-3-2 with a 2.07 GAA and .935 SV% in 11 games with Norfolk. He has played well at both levels this season and could see the majority of the work while Frederik Andersen (head/neck) is sidelined.
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.
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.
Chiarot, 23, has nine points (4G / 5A) in 24 games with St. John’s this season. He has just one game of NHL experience, but could make his season debut tomorrow with Tobias Enstrom on IR with a lower-body injury.
