Other than being soaked from a postgame shower from teammates, it was hard to tell after Anaheim’s 2-1 victory over Dallas that John Gibson had achieved a milestone.

Veteran goaltender John Gibson, one of few being mentioned in trade rumors around the NHL, suffered an upper-body injury during the first period of the Anaheim Ducks' game against the Nashville Predators and was replaced by Lukas Dostal on Saturday night.

Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson reached his 500th career game on Tuesday night as Anaheim took on the Dallas Stars at Honda Center. He made 26 saves in his milestone game to help the team secure a 2-1 win.

Gibson, who stopped 9 of 10 shots in the first period, was replaced by Lukas Dostal to start the second. The Ducks confirmed Gibson would not return to the game following his removal from it. "Lukas Dostal is now in net for us. John Gibson has an upper-body injury and will not return to this game," the Ducks announced on X.

Ducks veteran goaltender John Gibson became the first netminder in franchise history to play 500 games, though he wants to try to focus on the present instead of looking back at his career or any milestones still ahead.
