Frederik Andersen News

Despite coming off of unquestionably the worst regular season of his career, Andersen continues to impress in the 2025-26 postseason. The veteran 36-year-old goalie was outstanding once again in Game two against the Philadelphia Flyers, saving 34 of 36 shots (.944 SV%) in a 3-2 overtime win to give his team a 2-0 series lead. In six games this postseason (6-0), he has a near-perfect 1.02 GAA and .958 SV%. The Hurricanes hope to take a commanding 3-0 series lead, entering Game Three as -163 road favourites.

Andersen stopped all 19 shots that he faced in the Hurricanes' 3-0 shutout win over the Flyers in Game 1. It was another dominant performance from the Hurricanes and another great effort from the veteran netminder, who carries a 5-0-0 record, 0.90 GAA, .961 SV% and two shutouts into Game 2. The Hurricanes are monstrous -255 favourites on home-ice.

Fresh off an impressive four-game sweep over the Ottawa Senators, the Hurricanes will return from a week-long break, turning to Andersen to tend the twine in Game One against the Philadelphia Flyers. After arguably the worst season of his career, Andersen's presence in Carolina's crease this postseason was uncertain, but he has rewarded Head Coach Rod Brind'Amour for his decision thus far. In four games this postseason (4-0), Andersen has an elite 1.10 GAA and .955 SV%. The Hurricanes enter Game One on Saturday as sizeable -208 home favourites.

With Carolina holding a commanding 3-0 lead over Ottawa, Frederik Andersen is expected to start Game 4 in the Nations Capital on Saturday. The 36-year-old veteran net-minder struggled throughout the regular season but has seen a resurgence in the playoffs, as shown by his 3-0-0 record, 0.84 GAA and .954 SV%. After outscoring the Senators 7-3 through the first three games, he will look to close out the series quickly on the road for Saturday's matinee.

Coming off arguably the worst regular season of his career, posting a 3.05 GAA and .874 SV% in 35 games (16-14-5), Andersen has been outstanding to begin the postseason. The veteran 36-year-old Danish goalie has saved 59 of 61 shots (.967 SV%) through two games, helping Carolina maintain home-ice advantage by jumping out to a 2-0 series lead. The Hurricanes can take control of the series with a win in Game Three, entering the action as slight +105 road underdogs against the Ottawa Senators.

There was some uncertainty with who would tend the twine for Carolina to begin the postseason, considering Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) has been cleared to play, and Brandon Bussi led the team with 31 wins this season. That said, Andersen, coming off the worst regular season of his career, posting a 3.05 GAA and .874 SV% in 35 games (16-14-5), was between the pipes in Game One for Carolina and excelled, saving all 22 shots he faced in a 2-0 win over the Ottawa Senators for his sixth career playoff shutout. The Hurricanes enter Game Two as -144 home favourites.

Pyotr Kochetkov was originally set to start but is unable to play due to a roster technicality. Brandon Bussi will get the start while Thomas Sullivan will serve as the emergency back-up.

Andersen allowed two goals on 25 shots in the Hurricanes' win in Chicago on Thursday. For the second time in a couple weeks, the Hurricanes will stick with Andersen for a second game in a row. Andersen has cleaned things up a bit recently and comes into Saturday at 7-3-0 with a 3.00 GAA and .862 SV% in his last 10 starts.

The Hurricanes are on the tail-end of a back-to-back, so Andersen will get the start when they travel to Chicago on Thursday. Andersen struggled in his last start, surrendering five goals on 30 shots in a 6-3 loss in Ottawa on Sunday. The 13-year-veteran has endured an up-and-down season between the pipes, posting a 14-14-5 record and an .870 SV% across 33 appearances. Luckily for Andersen, he does draw a favourable matchup on Thursday, as the Hurricanes enter action at -210 on the money line.

Brandon Bussi was solid in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets, but the Hurricanes will turn to Andersen to tend the twine in Thursday's rematch. Andersen has had a largely disappointing 2025-26 season, but was finally stringing off consistent wins before losing his last two (0-2-0) while allowing seven goals on 36 combined shots (.806 SV%). The 36-year-old veteran goalie ended March with a 3.01 GAA and .857 SV% in eight games (5-3-0). The Hurricanes enter Thursday's contest as -186 home favourites against the Blue Jackets.
