The Anaheim Ducks and John Gibson have agreed to part ways however trying to find a new home for the 30-year-old goalie.

Two Teams Emerge As Front Runners For Gibson

Gibson and the Ducks have not been good for the past couple seasons and the the Ducks are looking to cash in with Gibson.

Two teams have emerged as the front runners with the Devils potentially getting ready to make a bid for him.

The other team that is also reportedly interested is the Detroit Red WIngs. With the addition of Kane to their team it is clear their rebuild is complete and it is now time to make a push for the cup.

Detroit has been looking for a true number one goalie ever since Jimmy Howard left the league and John Gibson may the perfect candidate.

Gibson's Career Numbers and His Downfall in The NHL

Gibson has 450 games played in the NHL all with the Anaheim Ducks, 440 of the games have been starts. However the American born goalie has been the starter for some pretty bad Anaheim Ducks teams.

His overall career numbers are 185 wins, 191 losses and 59 overtime losses, despite the negative record he still has a career save percentage of 0.912.

Gibson was looked at as the future of goaltending for many years but has since fallen back down to Earth. He had a three year stretch where he played at least 40 games played with an about 0.920 save percentage.

A trade for Gibson may allow him to get back to that level once more. Both the Wings and the Devils are in need of a goalie like Gibson.

As Seen on Hockey Feed - Gibson trade could happen shortly!
