Andersen allowed three goals on 42 shots in the Maple Leafs shootout loss in Tampa Bay on Monday. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Andersen, who comes into Saturday’s outdoor game well rested. In his first start against the Capitals, Andersen stopped all 30 shots that he faced in a 2-0 shutout win in mid-October.
Stastny, who was acquired from the Blues on Monday, will centre what might be the most lethal third line in hockey—he will have Nikolaj Ehlers and Patrik Laine on his flanks. Stastny has picked up 40 points (12G / 28A) in 63 games this season and should see an uptick in production on an extremely dangerous Jets squad.
The Blues have surprisingly started to drop out of the playoff race in the Western Conference so they decided to trade one of their pending free agents. Stastny was a player the Jets had their eye on before he signed with St. Louis prior to the 2014-15 season and now they’ve got him for the stretch run. He has 40 points (12G / 28A) in 63 games this season and will likely skate as the Jets’ third line centre—giving them one of the deepest lineups in the NHL.
