Bernier vs. Gibson?
Now what?
Do the Ducks give the crease to Gibson now that he is back or do they stick with Bernier who has been hot during the time tha Gibson was out?
Interested to know your opinion on that one...

Re: Bernier vs. Gibson?
Gibson will probably get the next game, but there's no reason to rush him.

Re: Bernier vs. Gibson?
I can see them pretty much splitting the remaining regular season games.
The real question for me is how short is Gibson's leash in the playoffs?
Set roster weekly in H2H (Mon to Sun) - 16 Teams - start 6F, 3D, and 1G per week - Keep 2
Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO
Forwards:
C. McDavid, N. Kucherov, R. O'Reilly, J. Schwartz, J. Toews, J. Huberdeau, T. Toffoli, M. Granlund
Defense:
B. Burns, J. Klingberg, R. Josi, J. Slavin
Goalie:
J. Binnington

Re: Bernier vs. Gibson?
Split IMO and think unless something drastic happens that Gibson will start the play offs - after that all bets are off though
Experience is the teacher of all things.
Re: Bernier vs. Gibson?
I would think that Gibson will get Saturday and Bernier will go on Sunday. With three games next week, I think they will split to ensure Bernier is rested and Gibson gets some action in before playoffs. Whichever goalie plays better in those games should be starter in playoffs. Bernier has done great recently, but last night's loss helped open the door for Gibson to take over again.
