Anderson won't be available for Thursday's game against the Capitals, but the Senators are considering him day-to-day, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Anderson (hand) will not be available for Tuesday's game against the Devils, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Anderson (hand) resumed skating Saturday morning, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Anderson (hand) wasn't on the ice for Friday's practice, Don Brennan of the Ottawa Sun reports. With Anderson still recovering from the injury, coach Dave Cameron went ahead and confirmed Robin Lehner as Ottawa's starting goalie for Saturday's game against Arizona.

Anderson (hand) was placed on injured reserve Thursday. According to the Ottawa Sun's Bruce Garrioch, The Senators seemingly view Anderson's injury to be a day-to-day situation, but it was significant enough to keep him out for Thursday's game against the Stars. Fortunately, because of the recent break for the NHL All-Star break, Anderson's IR stint can be backdated to Jan. 21, which will enable him to suit up Saturday against the Coyotes if team doctors deem him ready to go.

Anderson is dealing with a hand injury and will not play Thursday, Brent Wallace of TSN Ottawa reports. The extent of Anderson's setback uncertain, but replacement goaltender Andrew Hammond was called up on an emergency basis, which indicates Anderson should not be sidelined long. While Hammond will be active, Robin Lehner will get the start in Thursday's matchup with the Stars.

Anderson stopped 37 of the 40 shots he faced in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Maple Leafs. Anderson got back on the right track Wednesday, earning his first win in his last three starts.

Since Dec. 11, Anderson has given up three-plus goals five times and is 0-2-3 in those games; in his other eight starts in that span, he's gone 6-1-1 while allowing a total of 11 goals.
