Andersen is expected to start at home against the Kings on Saturday, per Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen is 6-1-0 with a 1.84 GAA and a .924 save percentage in seven appearances this season. He earned a 22-save shutout victory over the Rangers in his last start Tuesday. The Kings are tied for 23rd in goals per game with 2.76.

Andersen made 22 saves in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The shutout was the first of the season for the 35-year-old netminder, and he also recorded his third straight win since returning from knee surgery. Andersen has moved right back into a timeshare with Pyotr Kochetkov in the Carolina crease, and that arrangement figures to hold as long as both goalies remain healthy. On the season, Andersen is 6-1-0 in seven outings with a dazzling 1.84 GAA and .924 save percentage.

Andersen will guard the road cage against the Rangers on Tuesday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen will make his third start in the Canes' last five contests, as the coaching staff appears to have settled into an every-other-night split for the veteran and Pyotr Kochetkov. In his two outings since returning from a long-term injury, Andersen posted an underwhelming 3.47 GAA and .851 save percentage but still managed to come away with a pair of wins.

Andersen made 18 saves in a 7-4 win over Columbus on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It was his 300th NHL win. He is 300-128-52, including 74-28-4 with Carolina. Andersen is the second-fastest in league history to 300 NHL wins (501 games) behind Andrei Vasilevskiy (490). The Great Dane has always impressed when he's in the net, but injuries have held him back most of his career. This season, the 35-year-old Andersen has played six games (5-1-0), and he has a 2.15 GAA and .912 save percentage.

Andersen will start at home against the Blue Jackets on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen returned to action Monday against Chicago and picked up the win, turning aside 22 of 25 shots he faced (.880 save percentage). After getting the night off in the second half of the back-to-back set Tuesday against Dallas, he'll return to the crease Thursday and will face a challenging opponent, as the Blue Jackets are tied for fifth in the NHL with 3.29 goals per game this year.

Andersen stopped 22 of 25 shots in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first start since Oct. 26 after undergoing knee surgery Nov. 22 and being activated off injured reserve Friday, Andersen looked good between the pipes and managed to secure the victory thanks to Sebastian Aho's game-winner in overtime. Andersen should eventually return to the starting role for the Hurricanes, and even though a five-game sample size isn't big enough, the numbers are promising. He's gone 4-1-0 with a 1.78 GAA and a .929 save percentage so far in 2024-25.

Andersen will defend the road crease in Chicago on Monday, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen will make his first start since Oct. 26 after undergoing knee surgery Nov. 22. The veteran netminder was activated off injured reserve Friday and backed up Pyotr Kochetkov against the Golden Knights in his return to the 23-man roster. Andersen will have a favorable matchup against a Chicago club that ranks 29th in the NHL with 2.59 goals per game.

Andersen (knee) was activated from injured reserve Friday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen participated in the morning skate and is expected to be the backup goaltender versus Buffalo on Friday, as Pyotr Kochetkov is slated to start. Andersen is 3-1-0 with a 1.49 GAA and a .941 save percentage across four appearances this season. The Hurricanes sent Dustin Tokarski to AHL Chicago in a corresponding move.

Andersen (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen's designation for IR is not expected to impact his recovery timeline, rather the move allowed the Canes to bring up Ty Smith in a corresponding transaction. The 35-year-old Andersen has been working with the team and could be back sooner rather than later, though the club figures to take a cautious approach to his return given his recent injury history.

Andersen skated Wednesday for the first time since undergoing knee surgery Nov. 22, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Andersen isn't projected to return until late February, but this is an important step in his recovery. He has a 3-1-0 record, 1.49 GAA and .941 save percentage in four appearances in 2024-25. When healthy, Andersen is likely to reclaim the No. 1 gig, and Pyotr Kochetkov would shift to being the understudy.
