Andersen stopped 30 of 32 shots in a 7-2 win over Ottawa on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen didn't have to do much behind Carolina's seven-goal outburst but he was solid again Sunday, winning his fourth-straight game since returning from IR -- the 34-year-old netminder has held opponents to two goals or fewer in each outing. Overall, Andersen is 8-1-0 this year with a .917 save percentage and 2.17 GAA this season. While he continues to split time with Pyotr Kochetkov in net, Andersen could be playing his way back into a clear starting job down the stretch.

Andersen will defend the road net Sunday versus Ottawa, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen has stopped 63 of 66 shots during his three-game winning streak. In nine appearances this campaign, he has a 7-1-0 record with a 2.19 GAA and a .913 save percentage. The Senators sit 14th in the league with 3.17 goals per contest.

Andersen made 21 saves in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

In his third start since returning from a blood clotting issue that cost him four months of the season, Andersen delivered his first shutout in just over a calendar year. The 34-year-old netminder has won three straight outings since rejoining the Hurricanes while posting a .955 save percentage, but with Pyotr Kochetkov also playing extremely well (1.90 GAA and .932 save percentage since the All-Star break), the duo will likely remain in a timeshare.

Andersen is expected to start at home against Florida on Thursday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen has a 6-1-0 record, 2.49 GAA and .904 save percentage in eight contests this season. He's won his last two starts while saving 42 of 45 shots (.933 save percentage). The Panthers have a 24-8-2 road record, so they're likely to be a significant challenge for Andersen.

Andersen stopped 17 of 19 shots in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen wasn't very busy Sunday as he cruised to the win behind the Hurricanes' offensive outburst. The 34-year-old Andersen hasn't shown many signs of rust in two starts since returning from a four-month stint on IR -- he's won both games, allowing just three goals on 44 shots. Overall, Andersen is 6-1-0 with a .903 save percentage and 2.49 GAA on the season. While he figures to split time with Pyotr Kochetkov down the stretch, Andersen should be a strong fantasy option behind a Carolina team that's 5-1-0 in its last six games.

Andersen will protect the home net Sunday against Calgary, according to Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen made 24 saves in a 4-1 win over Montreal on Thursday in his return to the lineup from a blood clotting issue. In seven appearances this season, he has a 5-1-0 record with a 2.57 GAA and a .904 save percentage. The Flames sit 16th in the league this campaign with 3.14 goals per contest.

Andersen stopped 24 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first NHL appearance since Nov. 2, Andersen gave up a somewhat soft goal on a long-range shot by Joshua Roy early in the first period, but the veteran netminder buckled down after that. Coming off a four-month absence due to a blood clotting issue, it's not clear how heavy a workload Andersen will get right away, especially with Pyotr Kochetkov having posted a 1.99 GAA and .931 save percentage since the beginning of February.

Andersen will be in goal at home against the Canadiens on Thursday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen will be between the pipes for the first time since Nov. 2 versus the Rangers, a stretch of 50 games on long-term injured reserve due to a blood clotting issue. There will no doubt be some rust for the backstop to shake off but he should be in contention for regular starts down the stretch. He'll get a decent home matchup in his return, as the Canadiens are 12-12-7 on the road this year.

Andersen (illness) has been activated off injured reserve ahead of Thursday's home game versus Montreal, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

The Hurricanes have yet to announce a starter, but Andersen could be between the pipes against the Canadiens. He hasn't played since Nov. 2 against the Rangers due to a blood clotting issue, but if he's fully healthy, Andersen could take over as Carolina's No. 1 netminder down the stretch. The 34-year-old vet went 4-1-0 while posting a 2.87 GAA and an .894 save percentage through six appearances before landing on IR.

Andersen (illness) might make his return next week, GM Don Waddell told Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen, who hasn't played since Nov. 2, has a 4-1-0 record, 2.87 GAA and .894 save percentage in six appearances this season. Once he's available, Andersen will likely reassert himself as Carolina's top goaltender. However, with Antti Raanta (lower body) and Pyotr Kochetkov also expected to compete for starts once all three netminders are healthy, Andersen might see less work than most other No. 1s in the league.
