Anderson will start in net Wednesday against the Ducks, Dean Brown of TSN 1200 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson received a night off Sunday following a nice performance Saturday against the Bruins in which he allowed just one goal on 34 shots to pick up his 17th victory of the campaign. He will return between the pipes Wednesday to take on a Ducks club scoring just 1.80 goals per game in January, but he's received similar support from his team on the month as well, making him a chancy play in daily formats with a heavy win bonus.

Anderson made 33 saves in a 2-1 overtime win over Boston on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
The only goal he allowed was a tip in the opening minute of the second period. Anderson was particularly sharp in the third, turning away several good Boston chances to keep the score knotted at ones. He was looking for redemption after a poor performance Thursday against the Panthers and he got it. The win was Anderson's 17th of the season.

Anderson will start in the crease Saturday against the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson is coming off a poor showing in Thursday's game against the Panthers, allowing three goals on just 16 shots to lose his 12th game of the season. He'll look to improve on his 2.80 GAA and .916 save percentage Saturday, and faces a Bruins club that enters the contest losing five of the last six games.

Anderson stopped only 13 of 16 shots Thursday, becoming the Panthers' latest victim in a 3-2 loss.
EDGE Analysis
Florida came in with 10 straight wins, and Anderson and the Sens were not able to stand in the way. The Panthers didn't manage a whole lot of scoring chances in this one, but 12 minutes into the first period, they beat Anderson with their first two shots of the game -- just eight seconds apart. Another coach might have pulled his goalie, but Dave Cameron stuck with Anderson and he kept the game tight thereafter. Nonetheless, it's the third consecutive loss for Anderson; with his rate stats hovering around the league average and the wins not piling up, the opportunity is emerging for Andrew Hammond to cut into his workload.

Anderson was in the stater's end Thursday morning, Bruce Garrrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports. This means he will work in net against the visiting Panthers later in the evening.
EDGE Analysis
After finishing 2015 with seven goals allowed in a road loss to the Bruins, Anderson fared much better this past Sunday, posting a .931 save percentage but still taking a loss to the Blackhawks. If you are thinking about giving Anderson the green light in fantasy leagues, be warned that the opposing Panthers have rattled off 10 straight wins while moving to the top of the Atlantic Division standings.

Anderson stopped 27 of 29 shots in Sunday's loss to Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson had a strong game, but the Senators couldn't get a goal on Corey Crawford, leading to the 34-year-old's second straight loss. Anderson drops to 16-11-4 on the season with a .917 save percentage. Aside from allowing seven goals Friday against Boston, Anderson has been very good of late and should continued to be rolled out with confidence. The workhorse has played 31 games this season and made a league-high 953 saves.

Anderson was tagged for seven goals on 37 shots in Tuesday's loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Well, that was awful -- particularly the four-goal third period that led the Bruins crack a close game open. Anderson had been in the midst of a strong run of starts, but this was actually his second seven-goal blowup of the year. Andrew Hammond was likely to get the call Wednesday in the second of back-to-backs anyway, but this makes it a certainty.

Anderson defending the twine against Boston on Tuesday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson will look to repeat his performance from Sunday in which he stopped 38 of 39 against the Bruins. The 34-year-old has allowed only four goals in his last three games, logging a .964 save percentage. Expect the netminder to get fired upon, as the Senators allow more shots on goal than any other team in the NHL.

Anderson denied 38 shots on goal to lead the Senators to victory Sunday against the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has faced 973 shots this season, allowing 77 to get past him, leading the league in both categories. The veteran is getting some offensive support, helping him to 16 wins in 29 starts. The netminder will be hoping for another solid performance when he faces the Bruins again on Tuesday.
