Andersen will start in goal against the visiting Devils on Friday, Kristen Shilton of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen, who has started eight straight games, ranks fourth in the league in goalie minutes (770) through 13 total starts. This will be his first time facing the Devils as part of the 2018-19 campaign. The Dane is working with a career-best save percentage (.929) overall, but it's worth noting that Andersen's save rate in shorthanded situations (.865) has never been lower, as he's yielded seven goals on 52 shots in that special teams situation.

Andersen made 36 saves in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen is quite possibly the league's hottest goaltender over the last week or so. The 29-year-old Dane now owns a record of 8-5-0 with a 2.18 goals-against-average and a .929 save percentage. It's also worth noting that the last time Andersen gave up more than two goals in a game came back on Oct. 20.

Andersen will make his eighth straight start Tuesday, fielding shots from the visiting Golden Knights, Dave McCarthy of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen is molding a Vezina Trophy-caliber campaign based on his sterling ratios -- including a 2.28 GAA and .924 save percentage -- plus he's on pace for a career-high 47 wins. Sure, it would be nice if he had more than one shutout at this point, but the overall body of work has been stellar. Freddie will now face a Vegas team that ranks 30th in goals per game (2.29) and looks more like an expansion squad this year than in its actual inaugural season when Vegas went all the way to the Stanley Cup Finals.

Andersen will start in goal against the Penguins in Pittsburgh on Saturday, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen will be out for revenge since stopping 36 of 37 shots from the Pens on Oct. 18 amounted to a regulation loss. The third-round draft pick (Anaheim, 2012) is preparing for his seventh consecutive start, having posted a 6-5-0 record through 11 games. However, without phenom Auston Matthews (shoulder) in tow, the Maple Leafs will need to work that much harder to secure victories in support of the Danish backstop.

Andersen made 17 saves in a 2-1 loss to Dallas on Thursday night.
EDGE Analysis
The Leafs have been struggling to score of late and have been especially flat on home ice. Andersen remains a fantastic fantasy netminder despite his mates' troubles. Use him well.

Andersen will be the home starter against the Stars on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen has a .919 save percentage, right in line with his numbers the past three seasons, but his GAA is down to 2.53 from the 2.81 GAA he posted last year. The Stars have scored 3.09 goals per game, but given the increase in scoring that only leaves them ranked 15th in the NHL.

Andersen will get the starting nod at home against the Flames on Monday, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen leads the league with six wins while also sitting at sixth in shots faced (274) -- a category he led the league in last year. The Flames are averaging 31.6 shots this season and should look to test the netminder early and often.

Andersen allowed two goals on 24 shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
He is off to what may be the best October of his career. Andersen has been a notoriously slow starter in the first month of the season, but he entered Saturday with a surprising 2.66 GAA and 916 save percentage. Andersen's game is maturing and this could be the season he moves into the next tier of 'tenders.

Andersen will face the Jets in Saturday's home start, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the fourth consecutive start for Andersen, who was steadfast against this Jets team on the way to a road win his last time out. Despite facing a season-high 40 shots, Freddie only permitted two goals Wednesday, and unlike the Jets -- who claimed a 2-1 win over the Red Wings on Friday night -- he's had two days to rest between games.

Andersen will be between the pipes on the road against the Jets on Wednesday, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen is currently in the midst of a two-game losing streak, despite a solid 2.06 GAA and .934 save percentage in those contests. Being backed by the league's third best offense (3.78 goals per game) should help the netminder put together a third consecutive 30-plus win season. To earn his fifth victory of the 2018-19 campaign, the Dane will probably need his teammates to stay out of the box and avoid Winnipeg's potent power play (32.0 percent).
