Gibson was reassigned to AHL Hershey on Wednesday, per the NHL media site.
Gibson was with the Capitals because Logan Thompson (lower body) was on injured reserve. However, Thompson has been activated, so Gibson's presence on the NHL roster was no longer needed. The 27-year-old Gibson didn't make his NHL debut during his stint with the team. He has a 3.50 GAA and an .881 save percentage in two appearances with Hershey in 2026-27.
