Gibson will start on Friday vs. Edmonton.

The Ducks make their return to the ice from the All-Star break on Friday night and will turn to John Gibson between the pipes. Gibson last played on January 31st, saving 26 of 28 shots (.929 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the San Jose Sharks. The 30-year-old Gibson has a tough task at hand as the Ducks are significant +236 road underdogs against a high-scoring Edmonton Oilers club that lost for the first time in 16 games on Tuesday against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Chiarot (upper body) was a full participant in practice Thursday and had a chance to return Saturday.

Chiarot has not played since January 19th, missing five games with an upper-body injury, but could return to the lineup as soon as Saturday. Chiarot has 12 points (3G / 9A), 84 hits, and 93 blocks in 45 games this season and will likely replace Justin Holl when he is ready to return.

Gibson will start Wednesday vs. San Jose.

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.

Talbot led the Kings onto the ice for warmups.

Talbot will likely start his second straight game after serving as the backup in the previous three. Talbot has failed to win a game since December, losing nine straight (0-6-3), posting an ugly .887 SV%. The Kings' only two wins in the last month have been with David Rittich between the pipes. As such, Talbot and the Kings are +123 road underdogs against a Colorado Avalanche squad riding a two-game winning streak.

Gibson will start in Dallas on Thursday.

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.

Compher (illness) will play against the Flyers on Thursday.

Compher did not participate in practice on Wednesday due to an illness but is good to go for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. Compher recorded a late tally in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Dallas Stars and has three points (2G / 1A) during a three-game point streak.

J.T. Compher
Kane (lower body) has been placed on the Injured Reserve retroactive to January 14th.

Kane has missed the last four games due to a lower-body injury but returned to practice on Wednesday. Earlier this week, Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde suggested that Kane could return before the All-Star break. Kane has been a major contributor in the Red Wings offence, scoring 16 points (7G / 9A) and tallying 63 shots in 19 games.

Talbot will start against the Sabres on Wednesday.

Talbot will take the crease for the first time in four games after yielding it to David Rittich for the last week but is expected to start Wednesday vs. Buffalo. The 36-year-old finds himself in the midst of an eight-game losing streak but still holds a respectable 14-11-5 record, 2.43 GAA and .915 SV%. He'll take on the Buffalo Sabres, who are on the back end of a back-to-back and have lost their last two contests.
