Trouba will return to action on Wednesday after serving a two-game suspension. The veteran blueliner has been a multi-category force for the Rangers this season, highlighted by two points (0G / 2A), 11 shots, and nine hits in his last four games. Zac Jones will be a healthy scratch, allowing Trouba to re-enter the lineup.

Gibson will start for the third time in the last four games when the Ducks face off against the San Jose Sharks. Gibson allowed four goals on 44 shots (.909 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-3 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars. The 30-year-old netminder has lost three of his last four (1-2-1), posting a .908 SV%. The Ducks enter action as -177 home favourites against a Sharks team that played last night and defeated the Seattle Kraken 2-0.

Husso wasn't scheduled to start on Wednesday but will be out of the lineup entirely after coming down with an illness. Husso has not played a game since returning to the lineup last week and will likely continue to be a secondary option between the pipes as long as Alex Lyon continues to give the Red Wings solid goaltending regularly.

Johnston will take the place of Bo Groulx, who will be a healthy scratch. Johnston is yet to score a goal in 34 games this season.

The Ducks will turn to Gibson for the 30th time this season when they travel to Dallas on Thursday. Gibson was solid his last time out, stopping 28 of the 30 shots he faced enroute to a 4-2 victory over the Sabres on Tuesday. The effort helped raise his SV% to an even .900 on the year. He'll draw a much tougher assignment on Thursday, however, and may have a hard time avoiding a league-leading 20th loss of the season with the Ducks being +260 underdogs in Dallas.

Husso has not played since December 18th, when he suffered a lower-body injury, and, as a result, has been loaned to the Grand Rapids Griffins of the AHL for a conditioning stint before returning to the Red Wings. Husso, sporting a 3.53 GAA and .893 SV% through 18 games (9-5-2-), will likely serve as the backup to Alex Lyon upon his return.

Johnston will sit to make room for Brock McGinn, who will draw back into the lineup. Johnston has no goals and two assists in 34 games this season.

McGinn will take the place of Ross Johnston, who will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday. McGinn has one goal and two assists in 22 games this season.

Gibson will start for the fourth time in the last five games when the Ducks host the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday evening. The Ducks have been terrible lately, losing 10 of 12 (2-9-1), paralleled by poor play from Gibson, as he has an ugly .858 SV% in his last six contests (1-5-0). The Ducks are +145 home underdogs against a Sabres club that is expected to welcome Jeff Skinner back into the lineup.

Zellweger was the 34th overall pick of the Anaheim Ducks in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and could make his NHL debut on Tuesday night. In 34 games with the San Diego Gulls of the AHL, Zellweger has 25 points (8G / 17A).

Dostal allowed five goals on 41 shots in the Ducks’ loss in Tampa last Saturday. John Gibson has started the last three games but Dostal will make his 18th appearance tonight vs. the Rangers. Dostal has played much better in Anaheim this season, posting a 2.99 GAA and .918 SV% in seven games, however it’s led to just two wins.
