Poised to return Monday Anderson (upper body) may be ready to play versus the Islanders on Monday with the team "pretty optimistic" he'll be in the lineup, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

Impact Anderson has missed the last eight games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be at least a game-time cal versus New York. If Anderson does suit up, it will likely come at the expense of Jacob Moverare, though the Kings could opt to deploy seven defensemen instead.

Has first point in eight contests Anderson had an assist in the Kings' 4-2 win over the Predators on Wednesday.

Impact The Kings have struggled recently, and so has Anderson. Wednesday's assist was his first point in eight games. The defender continues to be an important piece on the blue line-he logged 23:28 of ice time on Wednesday-but points have been few and far between. Over his last 17 games, Anderson has no goals and four assists.

Helpers in consecutive contests Anderson posted an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.

Impact Anderson has a helper in each of the last two contests since he snapped an eight-game point drought. The 24-year-old blueliner set up Adrian Kempe's second tally in the third period. Anderson has reached the 10-assist mark for the third time in the last four years. He's at 11 points, 42 shots on net, 45 hits, 63 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating through 31 outings overall.

Ends point drought Anderson produced an assist, two shots on goal, a plus-3 rating and five blocked shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Flames.

Impact Anderson snapped his eight-game point drought with the helper. The 24-year-old looked to have taken a step forward early in the season, but it's safe to say he's back to being a defense-first -- and often defense-only -- contributor. The blueliner has 10 points, 40 shots on net, 44 hits, 61 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating over 30 outings on the top pairing.

Snags apple in win Anderson logged an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Anderson was limited to just a single assist over 11 contests in November, a mark he's already matched one game into December. The 24-year-old defenseman had a strong start to the campaign on offense, but his mainly defensive role meant that was unlikely to last, as evidenced by his rapid cool-down. He's at nine points, 26 shots on net, 36 hits, 39 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating through 21 outings. Anderson still has a good chance to top his career high of 20 points from last season.

Snaps slump with helper Anderson registered an assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Penguins.

Impact Anderson ended his four-game point drought when he set up an Adrian Kempe goal midway through the contest. His hot start to 2023-24 was always going to be unsustainable, but Anderson has clearly made some improvements to get involved with scoring plays more frequently. He's at one goal, seven helpers, 14 shots on net, 21 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 13 outings overall.

Pockets helper Anderson logged an assist, four blocked shots and two hits in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Anderson's defensive reputation has often kept him out of the spotlight in fantasy, but he's now putting up offense too good to ignore. The 24-year-old has four points over his last three contests, giving him a goal and six helpers through eight outings overall. He's also maintained his heavy playing style with 17 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating in a top-pairing role. This scoring pace probably won't last, but Anderson's done enough in October to warrant keeping an eye on his production.

One of each Friday Anderson scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Anderson continues to step up his game on offense -- he's gotten on the scoresheet in five of seven contests so far. He tallied in the first period and then helped out on Drew Doughty's game-winner in the third Friday. Anderson has a goal, five assists, seven shots on net, 15 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-4 rating to begin 2023-24. While it's likely unsustainable, his physical play makes him an option for fantasy managers looking for a short-term boost.

Grabs apple in win Anderson logged an assist, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Anderson has quietly produced strong offense early on with four helpers through six games. He helped out on a Trevor Moore tally in the first period of Tuesday's contest. Anderson hasn't lost his physical edge either, racking up 14 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM with a plus-3 rating this season. His top-pairing role guarantees he'll have plenty of ice time, but it's unusual for the 24-year-old to be this offensively productive with it.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Registers helper Anderson recorded an assist, two hits and two PIM in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Anderson helped out on Drew Doughty's first-period tally. Those two defenseman compose the Kings' top pairing, but Anderson's role remains that of a stay-at-home defender, as it has for years. In 2022-23, he produced a career-high 20 points with 162 hits and 129 blocked shots in 77 outings. The physicality gives Anderson some appeal in deeper formats, but his offense alone won't be very useful in fantasy.

Impact Anderson went without a point in his last six games and also missed five contests with an undisclosed injury in that span. The defenseman had the secondary helper on Phillip Danault's tally in the second period. Anderson is a defensive presence first and foremost, though he sees big minutes alongside Drew Doughty on the top pairing. Anderson had 20 points, 90 shots on net, 162 hits, 129 blocked shots and a plus-20 rating in 77 regular-season outings this season.
