Anderson was acquired by Chicago from Toronto on Tuesday, along with Pavel Gogolev, a 2025 first-round selection and a 2026 second-round pick, in a trade for Jake McCabe, Sam Lafferty and a pair of fifth-round picks. Per the NHL media site, Anderson has been added to the Hawks' NHL roster.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Anderson passed through waivers less than a week ago without being claimed, it's a little surprising to see him drawing interest as part of a trade. Over his five-year NHL career, the 24-year-old Minnesota native has logged just 72 games for the Devils and Leafs in which he tallied 16 points. With his new club, Anderson could be in the mix for a bottom-six role but likely won't meet the team in time to face Anaheim on Monday.

Anderson provided a goal in Toronto's 6-2 loss to Ottawa on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson scored at 7:15 of the first period to tie the game at 1-1. He has two goals and three points in nine contests with the Maple Leafs this season. Anderson was summoned from the AHL on Tuesday and has recorded 14 goals and 27 points in 30 contests with the Marlies in 2022-23. While his AHL numbers have been impressive, keep in mind that the 24-year-old entered Friday's action averaging just 8:39 of ice time with the Maple Leafs this season and logged 8:15 on Friday, so Anderson's offensive contributions in the NHL are likely to be limited by his small role.

Anderson was elevated from AHL Toronto on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has appeared in just seven games for the Leafs this season in which he garnered one goal, four shots and 12 hits while averaging 9:11 of ice time. If Anderson does break into the lineup against the Rangers on Wednesday, it would likely come at the expense of Zach Aston-Reese or Bobby McMann.

Anderson was loaned to AHL Toronto on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has contributed one goal, four shots on net and 12 hits in seven games with the Maple Leafs this season. He has been a healthy scratch for the past two contests. It looks like Dryden Hunt has claimed Anderson's spot on the fourth line.

Anderson scored a goal on his lone shot in Tuesday's 7-0 win over Anaheim.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson capped off Toronto's blowout victory, putting home a rebound off a Pontus Holmberg shot in the third period. It's the first point since 2019 for Anderson in his second game played this season after he was recalled on Friday. The 25-year-old winger had 11 goals and eight assists in 21 games with AHL Toronto. While Anderson should remain in the lineup with Nick Robertson (shoulder) and Calle Jarnkrok (groin) sidelined, he shouldn't be counted on for consistent point production on the Leafs' fourth line.

EDGE Analysis

At this point it isn't clear if Anderson will be in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Flames. If Anderson does play, look for him to slot into a bottom-four role versus Calgary.

Anderson was placed on waivers by Toronto on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson will be sent to the minors if he clears. He appeared in five games with the Maple Leafs last season and has 13 points in 58 career NHL outings. Anderson accounted for 26 goals and 42 points in 56 contests with the Marlies of the AHL last campaign.

Anderson was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday, per CapFriendly.

Anderson played in the Maple Leafs' regular-season finale, but he didn't record a point. He had 10 shots and three hits in five NHL contests this season, though most of his playing time has been with the Marlies.

Anderson was recalled from AHL Toronto on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

With the Maple Leafs expected to sit some of their top players for the regular season finale against Boston, Anderson will likely suit up Friday. The Minnesota native has failed to mark the scoresheet in four appearances for the Maple Leafs this season.

Anderson was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has averaged 7:47 of ice time and been held without a point over four NHL appearances this season. The 23-year-old will rejoin AHL Toronto, where he has logged 18 points over 23 performances in 2021-22.
