Anderson will be gifted the start in goal Saturday versus the Red Wings, Brent Wallace of TSN reports. With Robin Lehner sitting out Saturday's morning skate with an illness, turning to Anderson for the start was an easy decision for coach Dave Cameron. It's certainly helped matters that Anderson appears to have gotten back on track over his last three starts, surrendering two or fewer goals against the Devils, Ducks and Capitals, in that order. Detroit will counter Anderson with Jimmy Howard in their net Saturday.
