Gibson earned his fourth straight win and seventh victory in his last nine games, while the Ducks improved to 35-19-8 and 16-1-1 in their last 18 contests.
Alex Galchenyuk provided all of the offense for the Canadiens in regulation, and the 22-year-old forward now has five goals in his last four games.
Ducks forward Jamie McGinn scored his first goal with Anaheim since being acquired from the Buffalo Sabres on Monday.
The Canadiens lost their second straight game and third in the last five.
