If Gibson can get to the 25-win mark, which seems pretty likely, it would be the first time he's reached that threshold since 2018-19.

Tending twine against Vancouver Gibson will defend the home crease against the Canucks on Thursday, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gibson has alternated wins and losses over his last five starts, going 3-2-0 with a 2.63 GAA and .913 save percentage during that time. He made a road start against Vancouver on Dec. 8 and turned aside all 39 shots he saw in a 4-0 victory.

With the win, the 35-year-old netminder is up to a 14-9-1 record with a 2.94 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 25 appearances this season. Since his stretch of strong play began Dec. 2, he has a 10-2-0 record with a 2.26 GAA and a .925 save percentage across 12 outings.
