Frederik Andersen - NHL News & Rumors

Cruises to win Thursday Andersen made 11 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Carolina out-shot the visitors 35-13 on the night, and Andersen shut the door completely in the second half of the game. It was the veteran netminder's first win since Nov. 6, and it was an encouraging performance after he'd given up 14 goals on just 84 shots over his prior three starts. With Pyotr Kochetkov (hip) on the shelf, Andersen is seeing regular action again, but he remains behind Brandon Bussi on the depth chart.

Between pipes Thursday Andersen will start Thursday's home game against the Ducks, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact Andersen has seen limited playing time this season, but he's gone winless over nine starts since early November. During that time, he's gone 0-7-2 with a 3.85 GAA and .840 save percentage. The Ducks are scoring 3.28 goals per game this year, which ranks eighth in the NHL.

Another meltdown in third period Andersen stopped 30 of 34 shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Avalanche. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Andersen and the Hurricanes were ahead 3-1 after two periods, but that lead was gone less than two minutes into the final frame. The Avalanche kept going, with a second Brock Nelson power-play tally deciding the game at 7:30 of the third period. This was Andersen's ninth loss in a row. He's allowed at least three goals in all of them, and he's lost his last six starts in regulation time. He drops to 5-10-2 with a 3.43 GAA and an .867 save percentage over 17 starts this season. Andersen will share the crease with Brandon Bussi, though both goalies have struggled with the Hurricanes' third-period lapses lately. The team won't have much time to dwell on this loss, as the Hurricanes visit the Devils on Sunday.

Between pipes Saturday Andersen will patrol the home crease against Colorado on Saturday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

Impact Andersen has lost his last eight outings (0-6-2) while allowing 30 goals on 179 shots. He has a 5-9-2 record this season with a 3.38 GAA and an .865 save percentage through 16 appearances. Andersen made 44 saves in a 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche on Oct. 23. Colorado ranks first in the league with 4.05 goals per game this campaign.

Allows five goals Tuesday Andersen stopped 23 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Andersen hasn't won a game since Nov. 6 and has dropped his last eight starts, going 0-6-2 with a 3.81 GAA and a subpar .832 save percentage over that stretch. What's even more worrying is the fact that Andersen has given up five goals in each of his last two outings. As if his backup role wasn't enough reason to avoid him in most formats, Andersen hasn't performed well on an individual level to even gain upside as a streaming option in deep formats.

Slated to start Tuesday Andersen is expected to make the road start versus the Penguins on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Andersen will see his workload increase now that Pyotr Kochetkov (hip) is expected to miss the rest of the season. This will be Andersen's third appearance in December, and until his play gets on track, Brandon Bussi is likely to handle a majority of the workload. Andersen is 0-5-2 with an .834 save percentage over his last seven outings. The Penguins have 17 goals over their last six games, though they've been shut out twice in that span.

Late collapse against Florida Andersen made 17 saves in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Carolina held a 2-0 lead heading into the third period, but a Niko Mikkola point shot deflected past Andersen early in the final frame, and that seemed to open the floodgates. The veteran netminder was seeing his first action since Dec. 4, and while Tuesday's result had a lot more to do with ragged play by the Hurricanes defense, it won't encourage coach Rod Brind'Amour to work Andersen into his three-headed goalie rotation more frequently. Anderson's gone seven straight starts without a win dating back to Nov. 11, stumbling to a 0-5-2 record over that stretch with a 3.64 GAA and .834 save percentage.

Gets starting nod against Cats Andersen will be between the pipes at home versus the Panthers on Tuesday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

Impact Andersen hasn't featured in the crease since Dec. 4 versus Toronto, with the Canes having split the last nine starts between Brandon Bussi and Pyotr Kochetkov. At some point, Carolina will likely have to make a decision in the crease rather than carrying three netminders, and it appears Andersen could be the odd man out.

Battled puck all night in loss Andersen made 19 saves in a 5-1 loss to Toronto on Thursday.

Impact The first couple goals were purely bad luck. The first went off the post, hit Andersen and trickled over the line. The second hit the back glass and the puck bounced into the slot where a Leaf player drilled it past the stunned netminder. Andersen allowed four goals. He has really struggled over the last month. His last regulation win was Nov. 8, and he's 1-4-2 in seven starts. Andersen has allowed 23 goals in that span.

Starting against Toronto Andersen will defend the home crease against the Maple Leafs on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Andersen has been in a skid across the past few weeks, as he's gone 0-3-2 with a 3.26 GAA and .849 save percentage over his last five starts. He didn't appear in either of Carolina's last two games but will return to the crease for Thursday's home matchup. The Maple Leafs have had a proficient offense this year, scoring 3.42 goals per game, which is the fifth-highest mark in the NHL.

Losing streak continues Wednesday Andersen stopped 14 of 17 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers, with New York's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact While the Rangers didn't get a lot of chances, the ones they did get came in high-danger areas, and Andersen couldn't come up with a big save to shift the momentum when his team needed one. The veteran netminder has gone five straight starts without a win, stumbling to an 0-3-2 record with a 3.26 GAA and .849 save percentage during that swoon, but with Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) potentially set to miss some time, Andersen could be leaned on heavily in the short term by the Hurricanes.

Guarding cage versus Rangers Andersen will tend the twine at home versus the Rangers on Wednesday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Andersen is mired in a four-game losing streak, allowing 13 goals on 89 shots (.854 save percentage) in that span. He's alternated starts during that stretch, but Andersen looks to be in line for a larger workload in the absence of Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body). The Rangers have scored just 12 goals over their last six games, going 2-4-0 in that span, so this could be a good chance for Andersen to get on track.

Struggles against low volume Andersen stopped 17 of 20 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Andersen allowed three goals across the first two periods, including two even-strength goals in the second, before the Sabres scored an empty netter in the third. With the loss, the 36-year-old netminder has a 5-4-2 record with a 3.07 GAA and an .883 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. Andersen has picked up the loss in each of his past four appearances, while Pyotr Kochetkov is 4-0-0 since his return from injury early in November. Even Carolina's third-string goaltender Brandon Bussi has won each of his last three starts behind the Hurricanes' offense that has 3.62 goals per game this season, which ranks second in the NHL. Andersen should have better days ahead of him, but until he can clean up his overall play, stronger internal and external options in fantasy can provide interim value.

Falls short in shootout Andersen allowed three goals on 18 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Wild.

Impact Andersen never received a lead to protect in this contest despite facing significantly less traffic than Jesper Wallstedt in the other crease. The 36-year-old Andersen has gone 0-1-2 with 10 goals allowed on 68 shots over his last three outings. He dropped to 5-4-2 with a 3.07 GAA and an .883 save percentage in 11 starts overall. If he continues to struggle, Pyotr Kochetkov may start to receive more playing time, and Brandon Bussi is also in the mix. The Hurricanes' road trip continues in Winnipeg on Friday.
