Anderson will once again be between the pipes in Tuesday's game against the Canadiens, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's a bit of a surprise that the Senators are opting to roll with Anderson on Tuesday, as he played quite poorly in his last start, allowing five goals on 28 shots in a 5-3 loss to the Red Wings on Saturday. Conversely, Ottawa's second-string goaltender, Andrew Hammond, turned away 29 of the 30 shots he faced en route to a 3-1 win Friday against Detroit in the first of back-to-back contests. Either way, Anderson will hope to enjoy a bounce-back performance Tuesday in a horrendous matchup against a Canadiens team that has averaged 3.85 goals scored per game this season, good for second best in the NHL.

As expected, Anderson will be in the crease in Saturday's game against the Red Wings, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrew Hammond got the start in net Friday against Detroit, so it's not surprise that the Senators have opted to roll with Anderson in the second of back-to-back games Saturday against the Red Wings. Anderson has been solid thus far this season, posting a 4-2-1 record with a 2.78 GAA and .914 save percentage. He posted similar numbers in three games against Detroit last season, registering a 1-1-1 record with a 2.63 GAA and .922 save percentage in three appearances. Saturday's matchup is a relatively favorable one for Anderson, as the Wings have only averaged 2.30 goals scored per game through their first 10 tilts of the season.

Anderson is the probable goalie starter Saturday versus Detroit, Don Brennan of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Goalie teammate Andrew Hammond put up a wall in a win against the Wings as recently as Friday night, so all signs point to Anderson working the second leg of the back-to-back. He's one shy of 30 shutouts for his career and faces a Winged Wheel that has gone flat with a 1-5-1 record over their past seven games.

Anderson allowed four goals on 38 shots but emerged the victor in a 5-4 shootout win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
That's four wins in seven starts for Anderson, whose numbers now sit at a .914 save percentage and 2.78 GAA for the year. The 34-year-old appears to be playing well enough to save off wild card Andrew Hammond for the starting duties in Canada's capital, and as such can be counted on as an above-average fantasy option between the pipes.

Senators goalie coach Rick Wamsley confirmed that Craig Anderson will start in goal for Wednesday night's tilt at home against the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has played reasonably well in six starts this season, compiling a 0.918 save percentage and 2.61 GAA. Conversely, Calgary has struggled mightily, as they sit in last place in the Pacific Division with a minus-19 goal differential. This game appears to present a favorable matchup for the 34-year-old veteran goaltender.

Anderson is in the starter's end for Saturday's morning skate, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has been seeing all of the Senators' starts at goalie lately, so this should be all the confirmation you need to expect him in goal against the Coyotes barring a significant turn of events.

Anderson will start in net for Saturday's home contest against the Predators, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson continues to hog the goalie starts for the Senators, despite the talented Andrew Hammond reportedly healthy following a recent groin injury.

Anderson turned away 34 of 36 shots Thursday, but took a shutout loss to the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Marc-Andre Fleury was perfect on the other end, leaving Anderson with his first defeat despite the Illinois native's fourth consecutive outing with a .900-plus save percentage to start the year. Andrew Hammond may be back in the fold and should see a start soon, but it looks like Anderson's working on a stranglehold on this No. 1 job in the early going.

Anderson will start in goal Thursday night against the Penguins, Wayne Scanlan of the Ottawa Citizen reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson is off to a great start with three wins this early in the season. However, the Senators could afford to tighten up the defense, as Anderson has already faced 101 shots after three contests.

Anderson was great Wednesday, turning aside 38 of 41 shots in a 7-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
After a shaky start to the game, Anderson was perfect for nearly two periods, allowing the final Blue Jackets goal to Brandon Dubinsky 4:34 into the second frame. The veteran netminder is now a perfect 3-0 on the season with all three victories coming on the road and if he can keep up the strong way, he should be able to stave off backup Andrew Hammond for the bulk of the work between Ottawa's pipes.
