Anderson (upper body) will not be available for Saturday's tilt with the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson will miss his fifth straight game while dealing with an upper-body issue. In his absence, Aaron Dell will start and Dustin Tokarski will be the backup. Anderson's next chance to suit up will be Tuesday against the Penguins.

Anderson (upper body) will not be available Friday against Edmonton.

EDGE Analysis

With Anderson out, Dustin Tokarski will guard the crease while Aaron Dell serves as the backup. The 40-year-old netminder has now missed four straight games, though he is still considered day-to-day. He could be an option for Saturday's tilt with Toronto.

Anderson (upper body) will be unavailable versus Washington on Monday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Don Granato declined to name a starter in Anderson's stead, so fantasy players will need to wait until warmups to see if Dustin Tokarski or Aaron Dell gets the nod. Despite playing in his 19th NHL campaign, the veteran Anderson continues to perform well, starting the year with a 4-2-0 record and 2.49 GAA in six outings. Once fully fit, the Illinois native should be the No. 1 option between the pipes moving forward.

Anderson is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury and won't be available for Saturday's matchup with Detroit, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Anderson on the shelf, Dustin Tokarski or Aaron Dell will get the start in goal against the Red Wings. Anderson will be reevaluated ahead of Monday's matchup with Washington.

Anderson surrendered five goals on 27 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson had his worst start of the year against a Sharks team missing a handful of lineup regulars to the league's COVID-19 protocols. To be fair, four of the five goals Anderson allowed were to key players. The 40-year-old goalie has a 4-2-0 record, a 2.49 GAA and a .921 save percentage in six appearances. He could make his next start Thursday versus the Kraken -- Anderson has started roughly two out of every three games so far.

Anderson will get the starting nod for Tuesday's game in San Jose.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson went 4-1-0 with an outstanding 1.98 GAA and .939 save percentage in five October appearances. He stopped 34 of 37 shots in Anaheim in his last outing Oct. 28. The 40-year-old netminder will look for a third straight win Tuesday when he makes his second road start of the year.

Anderson made 34 saves in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over Anaheim.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson's tenure in Buffalo is off to an outstanding start, as he's 4-1-0 and has allowed just 10 goals. The 40-year-old netminder appears to have found the fountain of youth, though Anderson's hot start could still wind up being a mirage -- expectations for the Sabres remain low and Anderson has already surpassed last season's total of four NHL appearances with Washington. Try to sell high before Anderson's nearly inevitable regression begins.

Anderson is expected to get the starting nod for Thursday's game in Anaheim, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson was the first goalie off the ice during Thursday's practice, suggesting that he'll be in goal against the Ducks. The 40-year-old netminder has been one of the league's biggest surprises to start the year, posting an impressive 1.76 GAA and .944 save percentage through four appearances. Anderson is coming off his best start of the season, yielding just one goal on 36 shots in a win over the Lightning.

Anderson allowed one goal on 36 shots in Monday's 5-1 win over the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson continues to defy expectations early in the year, as he's won three of his four starts while allowing just seven goals on 126 shots. That's a .944 save percentage, which is a wholly unsustainable mark but still impressive for the 40-year-old. The Sabres are set to embark on a road trip out west beginning Thursday in Anaheim.

Anderson will be in goal versus the Lightning at home Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has started the year with a 2-1-0 record and 2.01 GAA after taking over as the No. 1 option in Buffalo. The 40-year-old netminder should continue to receive the majority of the starts heading into the rest of the 2021-22 campaign, making him a useable fantasy target on the free-agent wire.
