Anderson logged an assist, three shots on goal, three blocked shots and two hits in Thursday's 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson ended a four-game point drought with the helper. His significant usage on the top pairing affords the 23-year-old some opportunities to chip in on offense, but he remains more of a physical presence on the ice. He's up to two goals, seven helpers, a plus-19 rating, 47 shots on net, 78 hits and 63 blocked shots through 39 contests.

Anderson scored a goal on his lone shot in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Ottawa.

The 23-year-old blueliner now has six points (two goals, four assists) through six games this season, three of which have come in his last four contests. Anderson won't offer much offensively but he's been steady on the defensive end alongside Drew Doughty on LA's top pairing. He's added 57 hits and 43 blocked shots while sporting a plus-five rating.

Anderson scored a goal on two shots, supplied an assist, went plus-2 and added two hits in Tuesday's 9-8 overtime loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Even a defense-first blueliner like Anderson couldn't ignore the offensive explosion in Tuesday's game. He helped out on Gabriel Vilardi's second goal of the game and scored the crucial game-tying goal at 13:39 of the third period to send an 8-8 contest into overtime. It'd been over a month since Anderson last got on the scoresheet -- he has 18 shots, 32 hits, 32 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in 16 games between points. He's at one goal, four helpers, 47 hits, 41 blocked shots, 31 shots on net and a plus-4 rating in 25 outings this season.

Anderson ranks second on the Kings in blocked shots with 36 in 22 games this season.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has also recorded 40 hits, which puts him in third place on the team behind Brendan Lemieux and Carl Grundstrom. He's a key part of the Kings' defense, averaging 21:21 of ice time, but Anderson isn't a significant offensive contributor. He had two goals and eight points in 57 contests last season and has three assists in 22 games in 2022-23.

Anderson managed an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson helped out on Phillip Danault's goal in the first period. Through eight contests, Anderson has picked up three assists. He plays as the more defensive half of a pairing with Drew Doughty at even strength, so it's asking too much to expect Anderson to post big scoring numbers. His physicality is solid -- he has 13 hits and nine blocked shots, and he's added 11 shots on net and a minus-1 rating to begin 2022-23.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson provided an assist, logged four hits and added two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
