Ducks' John Gibson: Trying to stop Avalanche on Thursday

Gibson will be the starting goalie for Thursday's matchup in Colorado, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.

Analysis:

After some inconsistency in the first quarter of the season, Gibson has really turned on the jets in January, having already posted two shutouts this month on his way to four wins. The 23-year-old will have a chance to feast against the league's worst offense, as the Avalanche are averaging a pitiful 2.03 goals per game.
