Andersen allowed one goal on 27 shots in his first career NHL start. The Ducks have rewarded that strong performance by starting him today vs. Columbus, which makes him a great spot start candidate.
Burns is reportedly dealing with sore gums after taking a hit to the mouth vs. Calgary. Freddie Hamilton will remain in the Sharks lineup.
Burns has missed the last two games and will likely miss tonight as well. This is a tough break for the Sharks defenseman turned forward who has four goals and four assists in eight games.
Andersen gets an extension before he even makes his first career start - which comes tonight.
Anderson stopped all 24 shots he faced in a relief effete on Sunday. Tonight he will make his first NHL start when the Ducks take on the Senators. It is a decent matchup, but it would be a risky spot start.

This is a terrible break for the Oilers who's lineup has been depleted by injuries all month. Coming into the season Hall looked poised for another great season, but concerns about injury always loom near with the 21-year-old. Expect Nail Yakupov to take on an expanded role as he looks to fill in for Hall and get back into coach Dallas Eakins good graces.

The Oilers and Hall owners are hoping that an MRI in Edmonton reveals no structural damage to his injured knee. Leaving the team on the road trip isn't exactly a good sign, but we'll have to wait and see what the MRI reveals.
Good news as Hall did not return to the game in the second period. Stay tuned to see if Hall will be forced to miss any time.
Viktor Fasth is day-to-day, so Anderson will simply serve as a backup - he has no fantasy value.
The Hall centre experiment is over with the return of Nugent-Hopkins. Hall has shifted back to his natural position of LW with RNH and Eberle. Hall has one assist but is a minus-5 in two games so far.
