3 Possible Destinations After John Gibson Requests Trade From Ducks
Feels a bit like a Jones situation if we signed him, and would give Joey a little more time in Coachella. Not sure how I feel about this or how I should feel about this…

I’m a big Ducks fan and Gibson is in my opinion the most underrated goalie in the league, but I swear to god if we trade for him and run a goalie tandem which costs $12+ million for the next 4 seasons I’m gonna be fuming.
I am a Gibson fan, but no thanks. I think we stick with what we got and continue growing.
That’s sounds like a possibly very expensive situation and I like where the team is in terms of spending and cap per our assets.
I think our name keeps coming up because we’re the only competitive team with cap space atm
Did you forget about Driedger?
If the Kraken were to trade for Gibson (signed through 26/27) then either Grubauer (signed through 26/27) or Driedger (signed through 23/24) would be going the other way or would require a third team. The first hurdle for any trade with these players is that they all have 10 team no-trade lists.
Our “name is coming up” about Gibson from a guy who thinks we’d somehow keep Grubauer and sink all that cost into two goalies 😂
Carry on, nothing to see here
If we wanted to give Joey more time in CV, we’d just use Driedger. The only reason we had Jones is that Driedger got injured.
No way he’d agree.
Sounds like a fan created theory with little thought on (in this case) Kraken goaltending depth and logical outcomes. I don’t believe it’s “our name keeps coming up” and more a “what if scenario” from a non-insider, hockey-fan.
Gibson is great. Ducks should get a nice return for him.
Kraken goaltending between Grubauer + Driedger and Daccord cover their basis (says Ron Francis in a recent presser that I’m too lazy to find). No need for Gibson even at a reduced cap hit, IMO.
Signed, a worried fan just thinking of Gibson in a Kraken jersey 😅
I don’t think that’s a very credible website. The author also thinks Saros is getting traded out of Nashville, based off of an article about another article where somebody was pontificating about what Nashville should do. Basically I think they should do this, became they are likely to do it. If Gibson is traded I’d be shocked if it was to Seattle, a team with 3 NHL goalies already.
I am completely in favor, in both Gibson and Karlsson cases, to be a third team that uses their cap space to facilitate the trade. But I’m really nervous about acquiring either Gibson or Karlsson.
I’d pass on Gibson and keep Grubi and Joey
I think Gibson is really good for being left to rot behind a bad team. Now I don’t think we should acquire him necessarily, but he is still good
Considering this article is based on a claim from another article that was refuted by Gibson’s agent, I don’t think this is a legitimate concern.
Gonna echo everyone else here: I like Gibson but this is a wild take.
No way this will happen. We have way bigger priorities.
I think this is made up.
Sounds like someone hacked the Gibson
