Anderson made 23 saves Saturday in a 4-3 overtime win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson remains unbeaten this season (3-0-0) and has allowed just five goals across those three games. The 41-year-old has been outstanding this season and with the right rest and recovery, he will deliver spot-start value for fantasy managers.

Anderson will defend the home cage against Chicago on Saturday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was the first goalie off the ice and with Eric Comrie on the ice early to work with the goaltender coach, Anderson will get the start. Anderson is 2-0-0 this season, giving up only two goals on 66 shots. He will play against the Blackhawks, who have been competing surprisingly well under new head coach Luke Richardson. The Blackhawks are back on the road after a four-game homestand and have scored 21 goals in their last five games.

Anderson allowed a goal on 30 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson drew a rare start Saturday and extended Vancouver's season-opening misery. This was his second start of the year, and he's allowed just two goals on 66 shots. Eric Comrie had started the last three games against a brutal stretch of opponents in Florida, Edmonton and Calgary, so it appears this could still be a timeshare situation in the Sabres' crease. They end a road trip Tuesday in Seattle, which is a solid matchup for whichever goalie draw the start.

Anderson was the first goaltender off the ice Saturday, reports Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News, indicating he will be in the road crease against Vancouver.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has not played since Opening Night, when he turned aside 35 of 36 shots in a 4-1 win over Ottawa. The 41-year-old netminder looks to have been overtaken for the No. 1 job with the Sabres by Eric Comrie. He will face the Canucks in Vancouver's home opener Saturday. The Canucks have scored 15 goals in five games.

Anderson made 35 saves in a 4-1 win over Ottawa on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The score was far closer than it's final mark -- the Sabres put in two empty-net goals in the last minute of play to tilt the box score in a very tight contest. Anderson was super sharp against his former team, but he's 41 and last started more than 40 games some five seasons ago (2018-19). He's a match-ups 'tender at this point in his career.

Anderson will guard the home crease against the Senators on Thursday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was the first goaltender off the ice at practice Thursday. The veteran netminder was 17-12-2 with a 3.12 GAA and an .897 save percentage last season. Look for the 41-year-old netminder to get 35-40 starts if he can remain healthy this season.

Anderson will get the starting nod at home versus Carolina on Tuesday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson faced just nine shots, allowing one goal, in his previous preseason outing against the Flyers on Tuesday. A veteran of 683 games, including 597 starts, Anderson shouldn't need much in the way of preseason action to prepare for the season and figures to see the majority of the starts over Eric Comrie.

Anderson is expected to tend the twine against the Flyers on Tuesday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Don Granto wouldn't commit to how long Anderson might be in goal for Tuesday's preseason clash. The 41-year-old netminder has certainly seen his fair share of training camps and likely won't need a lot of minutes to get up to full speed. Barring any remarkable camp performances, Anderson should enter the season as the No. 1 option ahead of Malcolm Subban and Eric Comrie.

Anderson (undisclosed) penned a one-year, $1.5 million contract with Buffalo on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson figures to enter the 2022-23 season as the presumptive starter for the Sabres, especially considering he is currently the only NHL-caliber goalie under contract for the organization. Barring any offseason free-agent additions, Anderson could split the workload with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, though the club would probably prefer to let the youngster play more games in the minors while Anderson carries the load with the big club.

Anderson (undisclosed) will not dress for Friday's game against visiting Chicago, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dustin Tokarski has been named the starter for Buffalo's season finale, with the recently recalled Michael Houser backing up. The 40-year-old Anderson managed to record 17 wins in his first season with the Sabres, recording a 3.12 GAA and .897 save percentage along the way.
