ABOUT THE DUCKS

Anaheim is close to having centre Nate Thompson back in the lineup after missing the first three games of the series. Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said he has looked good at practice and will be evaluated again today, but is listed as day-to-day. The Ducks used Tomas Fleischmann at centre on Monday and he played 11:23 while registering two shots on goal.

As well, goaltender John Gibson — who has been out for the whole series as well — was on the ice practising in full on Tuesday. The Ducks hope to have him ready within the next week.

He may have surrendered four goals on 35 shots Monday, but the Ducks were raving about the work of netminder Frederik Andersen and the growth in his game. “It’s just another bridge that he crossed where he played great and kept us in the game,” said Boudreau. “One of those things where you allow four goals and say the goalie was great. The save he made in the last minute when they were on the power play is truly one of those things that great goalies do. Making the save at the right time is so vital. And he did it. Hopefully to us that gives him a lot of confidence going further. He’s done everything we’ve asked of him. I just hope if he can continue as a young goalie, he’s going to be real good.”
