Craig Anderson News
Anderson will start for the Senators.

After a strong season last year, Anderson picked up right where he left off. He and Ryan Miller had a fantastic goalie battle last night with Anderson coming out on top. He stopped all 35 shots that he faced for his first shutout of the year. He will face the Maple Leafs tonight, who he has 0-2-0 with a 3.01 GAA and .880 SV% against last season.

Anderson had a roller coaster of a year in 2012-13. He started the season 8-4-2 with a 1.47 GAA and a .952 SV% before spraining his ankle in mid-February. He missed the rest of February, all of March and the first week in April for a total of 19 games. When he returned he went 4-5-0 with a 2.02 GAA and .917 SV% which brought his totals to 1.69 and .941; he led the NHL in both categories. This year the Senators should be a playoff team again and Anderson should have another good season.

Anderson will be back in goal for Game 5.

Anderson allowed six goals on 37 shots in Ottawa's 7-3 loss to the Penguins in Game 4. He now has the 11th ranked GAA in the playoffs (2.66) and dropped from third to seventh in SV% (.928). He was still good despite giving up six goals, he will need to bounce back in Game 5.

Anderson will start Game 4.

Anderson was outstanding in Game 3 allowing just one goal on 50 shots in 87 minutes of playing time. The performance moved him up to third among playoff goalies in SV% (.940) and seventh in GAA (2.17). He will need to continue his strong play in Game 4 if the Sens are going to knot the series up at two games a piece.

Anderson will start Game 1.

Craig Anderson was great in the Senators 4-1 series win over the Montreal Canadiens in the first round. He posted the fifth best GAA (1.80) and was tied for second in SV% (.950). He has the daunting task of facing Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, James Neal, Jarome Iginla, Kris Letang... The list goes on and on with this Penguins team. Anderson will need to be Ottawa's best player in this series if they're going to shock the Penguins.
