Carlyle after Gibson vows to play Game 6: 'That may be the adrenaline talking'
by from on (#2Q6RF)
John Gibson wants to get right back out there.
The Anaheim Ducks goaltender left Game 5 against the Nashville Predators with a lower-body injury, but, despite being listed as day to day by head coach Randy Carlyle, came out and said after the 3-1 loss that he'll be ready to play Game 6.
Carlyle, for his part, tapped the brakes on that declaration.
Randy Carlyle said John Gibson said he's playing in Game 6 but added "that may be the adrenaline talking."

Jonathan Bernier stopped 16 of 18 shots in the Game 5 loss and would start Game 6 - in which the Ducks will face elimination - if Gibson isn't able to go.
