Andersen will be in the crease Friday against the Kings, Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times reports. Andersen has sat out the lost four games with coach Bruce Boudreau content to ride the sizzling John Gibson, who won three times during that stretch. Gibson's emergence has appeared to temporarily push Andersen down the depth chart, but both netminders should see a fairly equitable workload over the remainder of the regular season and playoffs. While the hot hand could eventually win out between the two, Andersen should be in prime position to claim the win most of the nights he takes the ice, as his sterling 30-10-5 record would illustrate. He's worth keeping active Friday, though an outing against the red-hot Semyon Varlamov might make capturing the victory a more dicey proposition than normal.
