Goalie Start
Gibson starts Wednesday in Colorado.
McTavish played nine games with the Ducks, so sending him back to the OHL preserves the first year of his entry-level contract. The 18-year-old had two goals and one assist with the Ducks after going No.3 overall in this summer's draft.
Johnston has been a healthy scratch almost all season, so this probably doesn't change his status for this weekend's back-to-back. He joins Josh Bailey and Anders Lee on the protocol list.
Dumoulin will likely miss Thursday's game vs. the Flyers after landing on the COVID-19 protocol list alongside Sidney Crosby. Luckily, it looks like Kris Letang is set to return and replace Dumoulin.
