I cant see this making any sense. It's just a slow news day

Vanecek is the better, cheaper, and younger player. Gibson is a liability.

2018 was a long time ago. Gibson is on the wrong side of his career arc.

I dont see anybody trading for that contract tbh, even if the Ducks retain. Too much of a risk with 4 years remaining for a guy who is seemingly just cooked. Devils certainly wouldnt do it either, as hes a straight downgrade from Vanecek.
