from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,

The news was good on Frederik Andersen who is only day to day with leg tightness. Not so good was the news that prized rookie John Gibson, is out "approximately" six weeks with a groin injury. Notice the word approximately. In fact, it’s possible it’s longer than that.

In any case, we hear the Ducks have begun to look at their goalie options if indeed they decide to add some insurance in goal. Obviously you’ve got unrestricted free agents such as Martin Brodeur, Tomas Vokoun and Ilya Bryzgalov out there, in addition to the trade route.

Certainly Bryzgalov is an interesting possibility given his prior history with the Ducks.

Again, the Ducks may do nothing and just wait it out, but what we’re hearing is that they’re at least looking at what’s out there.
