Ducks' John Gibson: Game 1 starter

Gibson will defend the crease in Wednesday's Game 1 matchup against the Oilers, the Edmonton Journal reports.

Analysis:

Gibson was pulled from Game 3 in the first round due to poor play, but the Ducks still won the contest and the youngster started in the blue paint in each game of the club's four-game series. Unless he falls apart in the second round, Gibson should continue serving as the starting netminder for the club, looking to build off a 36-save performance in the Ducks' Game 4 series-clinching victory over the Flames.
