Anderson turned aside 36 of 38 shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
It's his second straight win after losing four straight, and only the fourth time since the beginning of November that Anderson has given up fewer than three goals. The veteran netminder has yet to put together an extended hot streak this season, saddling him with a .905 save percentage, but perhaps he can build on his recent success.

Anderson will guard the cage in Saturday's home game against the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was unbeatable in his last start, turning aside all 27 shots en route to a 3-0 victory over the Rangers on Thursday. The veteran backstop will look to stay sharp and pick up his 11th victory of the season in a home matchup with a slumping San Jose team that's lost three consecutive games.

Anderson will start in goal Thursday against the visiting Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson leads all NHL goalies with 709 saves, which is hardly a surprise given that the Senators are allowing a league-worst 38.3 shots per game. The veteran backstop has a 9-9-3 record, 3.87 GAA and .900 save percentage, which is actually quite good when you consider how often he's had to stand on his head. Anderson's next challenger is a Rangers team that that only averages 2.84 goals per contest and ranks 26th in shots (29.6), meaning there could be worse odds behind his quest to snap a four-game losing streak.

Anderson stopped 29 of 32 shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first time in five starts the veteran netminder has given up fewer than four goals, but Anderson still suffered his fourth straight regulation loss and ninth of the year. The Senators' defensive woes aren't doing him any favors, but Anderson's .900 save percentage on the season suggests the 37-year-old is no longer a reliable, starting-quality NHL goalie -- not that Ottawa has any better alternatives.

Anderson will get the starting nod against the Rangers on Monday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson is having another highly disappointing season, posting an ugly 3.91 GAA and .899 save percentage. Still, he's managed a respectable 9-8-3 record. In his last three starts, the 37-year-old has been plastered with 16 goals on 108 shots and a 0-3-0 record.

Anderson set aside 48 of 53 shots in Friday's 6-4 road loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
This was actually the second time this season that Anderson's seen that many shots, as the Golden Knights pelted him to that absurd degree back on Oct. 28. Poor Craig, he's now faced 40-plus shots seven times this season, and fantasy owners can't realistically expect him to consistently win games with the defensemen in front of him doing such a poor job sealing up shooting lanes. Given the circumstances, the fact that he does still have a winning record (9-8-3) is nothing short of remarkable.

Anderson will man the crease Friday versus the Stars, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has allowed 11 goals over his last two starts appearing quite shaky despite posting a 3-2-0 record in his last five games. Meanwhile, the Stars have struggled to score for most of 2018-19 and rank 25th with 2.73 goals per game. The Senators netminder will be looking to hand Dallas its third straight loss.

Anderson will guard the goal in Wednesday's road game against the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson struggled in his last start Monday against the Panthers, surrendering six goals on 22 shots before being yanked in the second period of the eventual 7-5 loss. The veteran netminder will look to bounce back and pick up his 10th victory of the campaign in a road matchup with a Minnesota team that's 6-2-2 at home this season.

Anderson will guard the cage for Monday's clash with Florida, Callum Fraser of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite giving up four goals in two of his previous three outings, Anderson is still riding a three-game winning streak thanks to his offense. In fact, the netminder is currently sporting a career-worst 3.55 GAA yet remains tied for second in wins this season (nine). The veteran could be in line for a heavy workload considering the Panthers are putting the third most shots on net per game (35.4).

Anderson will patrol the crease in Saturday's home game against the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was sharp in his last start Thursday against Detroit, stopping 34 of 35 shots en route to a 2-1 victory. The veteran backstop will look to stay dialed in and pick up a third consecutive victory in a home matchup with a slumping Penguins club that's lost two consecutive games.
