The Ducks have been one of the worst possession teams in the league this season but John Gibson has been there to bail them out. Gibson has constantly been having to make 35+ saves to keep his team in it. This is a nice match-up for the Ducks as they face the Rangers back-up goalie.

John Gibson should start in net for this game. He is 4-4-2 on the year with a 2.44 GAA. His team gave him a intense workload in his last game, allowing 4 goals on 49 shots. He has been fantastic recently, with a 0.937 save percentage in his last 10 appearances.



The New York Rangers have gone 0-2 when playing Western-Pacific opponents this season. The Ducks are 5-2 when taking on losing teams.

Getting the home team at this price is solid value so we are backing the DUCKS here on Thursday night NHL action.
