Finally a Manson update. He's on the trip but won't play tonight per Iceman.
Gibson is the head coach of the Ducks?Just speculating - methinks Gibby's actually injured but refuses to give up the net.

Are you OK with this?Him and Getzlaf, yeah. If they say they're playing, they're playing.
Also, I say this knowing nothing about what actually goes on.

Sure, I get this. But if I am Verbeek, and this really exists, things need to be cleaned up.You mean, if that were really the case? Probably not. It's a fine line though. As a coach, you don't want to piss off your star players because it could mean your job. You'd probably also have to weigh if the GM would agree with you or not.
I'm sure there are a litany of other factors as well.

Terry, Zegras, & Silfverberg are banged up and did not practice today. Only 3 forward lines practiced. All 3 as well as Getzlaf might not be out tomorrow, but Iceman says reinforcements from San Diego are likely.
