Andersen made 40 saves during Tuesday's 1-0 win over Florida.
EDGE Analysis
The standout showing gives Andersen 30 wins, a .923 save percentage, 2.66 GAA and five shutouts for the campaign. Those numbers position him among the top fantasy netminders in the league. Additionally, he hadn't been quite as sharp leading into Tuesday's game with three goals or more allowed in each of his past four outings, so it was encouraging to see him rebound.

Andersen will tend the twine for Tuesday night's showdown with the Panthers, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
After seeing his four-game win streak come to an end Saturday, Andersen was given the night off Sunday and will return to starter's net looking to put in a solid effort after allowing three goals or more in six of his last seven starts. Florida will give him a serious run for his money in that regard though, as that team is currently averaging 3.75 goals per game and 34.0 shots per game in February.

Andersen made 34 saves in a 5-3 loss to Pittsburgh on Saturday night.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen has allowed at least three goals in six of his last seven starts, but it was just his first loss in five starts. His ability to battle out wins is remarkable and he's clearly the Leafs' MVP. But at some point, all those goals will come back to bite.

Andersen will get the starting nod against the Penguins on Saturday, Paul Hendrick of the Maple Leafs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen will take his four-game winning streak on the road versus Pittsburgh's high-powered offense (3.10 goals per game). The netminder will be begging his teammates to stay out of the Sin Bin to avoid facing off with the league's most potent power play (26.6 percent) that features the three-headed monster of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Phil Kessel.

Andersen delivered a career high 54 saves in Wednesday's 6-3 win over Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
The Great Dane was the story of the game, overshadowing Nazem Kadri's five-point game. Andersen is a legitimate Vezina candidate and in fact, he should be a Hart candidate given his importance to the Maple Leafs. Cripes, he might even get votes for Prime Minister of Denmark. Andersen is now a play-and-forget player.

Andersen will defend the cage at home Wednesday, fielding shots from the Blue Jackets, Paul Hendrick of the Maple Leafs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen currently leads the league in minutes played, having already made 48 starts for a Toronto club that's 8-2-0 in its last 10 games. The Dane's next opponent has experienced a wild tailspin in the Metropolitan Division standings, with coach John Tortorella's crew possessing only slightly favorable odds of making it to the postseason; each and every point will be precious to the Blue Jackets, whereas Andersen's Maple Leafs are a virtual lock to extend their campaign. Expect to see a hungry Columbus team knowing that Andersen will seek revenge after losing to the patriotic ones in overtime Jan. 8, when 30 saves wasn't quite good enough.

Andersen saved 31 of 34 shots during Monday's 4-3 win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
This was the Danes' third consecutive win following an injury scare last week against Anaheim, and perhaps more encouraging, two of those victories have come against Nashville and Tampa Bay -- both legit contenders. Andersen now sports a 28-15-4 record, .921 save percentage and 2.65 GAA for the campaign, and there's potential for an even stronger finish with Toronto appearing to be rounding into top form.

Andersen will get the starting nod against the Lightning on Monday, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen will be looking for his third consecutive win, but will be squaring off with the league's most potent offense (3.56 goals per game). Fantasy owners shouldn't be surprised to see the netminder being peppered with shots, as the Leafs are allowing 33.7 shots per outings (fourth highest in the NHL). Last time the Dane matched up with Tampa Bay, he earned a loss despite posting a .944 save percentage.

Andersen made 22 saves in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Andersen's excellence this season has thrust him into the Vezina competition and maybe even the Hart. There have been many nights where Andersen is the reason for the win, but Saturday wasn't one. The Leafs came out of the gate hard and forced Sens' starter Craig Anderson from the game and Freddie just rode the proverbial wave to the win. Still, he is that plug-and-play guy this season, so reap the benefits.

Andersen will tend twine Saturday, preparing to face the Senators at home, Paul Hendrick of the Maple Leafs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Danish netminder has a spotty track record against the Senators, with a 3.09 GAA and .895 save percentage counting as his rate stats through nine career appearances against Erik Karlsson and Co. However, he did beat this team on the road Jan. 20, when Ottawa only managed to set 18 shots on goal. Freddie's a set-and-forget type of goalie in season-long settings, but DFS players should check out the entire offering of netminders on this nine-game slate since there are bound to be guys with better track records against their respective opponent.
