Lagesson hasn't played since suffering an upper-body injury in Saturday's game against the Ducks. He's expected to skate alongside Morgan Rielly as he's set to return from his five-game suspension.
Arvidsson exited Tuesday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets after playing only 17 seconds due to an undisclosed injury. It was only Arvidsson's fourth game of the season as he recently made his debut, returning from back surgery in October. He was off to a strong start before his injury, tallying two points (0G / 2A) and 12 shots in his first three games.

The Blue Jackets will turn to Tarasov on Wednesday after Elvis Merzlikins got the nod against the Kings in the front-end of their back-to-back on Tuesday. Tarasov last start came on February 13th in Ottawa, where he struggled to the tune of an .828 SV% as Columbus fell to the Senators by a score of 6-3. Tarasov hasn't managed to find his footing this season, posting a 3-6-2 record and an .877 SV%. He does draw a decent matchup in Anaheim on Wednesday, with the Blue Jackets getting even odds to secure the victory.

Gibson has started the last three games, winning twice, and will return to the crease on Wednesday. In his last outing, Gibson was tremendous, saving 34 of 37 shots (.919 SV%) in a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres. The Ducks enter action as slight -107 home favourites against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that played last night, losing 5-1 to the Los Angeles Kings.
Faulk has not played since January 24th and remains week-to-week with a lower-body injury. The 31-year-old had quiet production through the first half of the season with two goals, 19 points, 90 SOG, 10 PIMs and a -5 plus/minus through 40 games played.
Rasmussen is on pace to set career-highs in all major offensive categories this season and has been rewarded with a four-year $12.8 million contract extension. In 55 games this season, Rasmussen has 23 points (11G / 12A), 74 shots, and 91 hits.
Gibson will return to the Ducks' crease after an ugly relief appearance in their previous game in which he allowed five goals on 14 shots (.643 SV%) vs. Toronto. The 30-year-old is having a nearly identical season to his not-so-special 2022-23 campaign, as he has an 11-19-1 record, 3.07 GAA and a .899 SV%. He takes on Buffalo on the road Monday for a matinee showdown, who has won two of their last three games but are struggling to score as they are 21st in the NHL in goals per game (2.93).
It's unclear exactly when Gibson suffered the injury, as he was able to complete the second period but did not come out for the third. Lukas Dostal replaced him. We should expect to receive an update on Gibson's injury following the conclusion of Thursday's game.
Gibson will be back between the pipes for the Ducks when they travel to Ottawa on Thursday after Lukas Dostal got the nod in Tuesday's 5-0 defeat to the Canadiens. Gibson was forced to leave his last start on February 9th against the Oilers due to a lower-body injury, allowing two goals on 21 shots before giving way to Dostal. Gibson had been enjoying a nice stretch of form prior to the injury, posting a 2-0-1 record and a .919 SV% across his last four appearances. He'll be hard-pressed to come away with a victory on Thursday as the Ducks find themselves as +195 underdogs in Ottawa.
The veteran winger has not played a game yet this season after being placed on injured reserve in mid-October. After several down seasons, Arvidsson has refound his game as a Los Angeles King, scoring 108 points (46G / 62A) in 143 games over the previous two seasons. He returned to practice last week and will make his season debut on Thursday night after being activated off the Injured Reserve earlier in the day.

Tarasov will return to the crease on Tuesday after serving as the backup netminder for the past two games. In his last outing, Tarasov allowed three goals on 25 shots (.880 SV%) in a 4-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken. The Blue Jackets are +154 road underdogs against a rolling Ottawa Senators club that has collected points in eight of their last nine games (6-1-2).
Bryson has been out of the lineup for the last two games but will return to the ice on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings. Bryson has two shots, nine hits, and a -4 plus/minus through five games this season.
