Andersen was the first goalie off the ice at Carolina's morning skate. The red-hot Hurricanes have won seven straight, outscoring their opposition 24-9, and will likely turn to Andersen between the pipes on Thursday against the San Jose Sharks. The 35-year-old Andersen was solid in his most recent outing, saving 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings. The veteran goalie has a 2.15 GAA and .912 SV% in 14 games this season (9-5-0). The Hurricanes enter Thursday's contest as significant -347 road favorites against a Sharks squad coming off a 5-1 loss to the Washington Capitals.
