Andersen allowed two goals on 25 shots in the Ducks 3-2 shootout loss to the Coyotes on Friday. It was just Andersen’s second loss of the season, but it was another steady outing for the 25-year-old. He would take on the Canucks at home, where he is 3-1-1 with a 1.58 GAA and .943 SV%.
Andersen allowed a single goal on 22 shots in the Ducks win over the Stars last Friday. Andersen missed the last two games with leg tightness, but will be back between the pipes tonight vs. Arizona.

Andersen was held out of Wednesday's game for precautionary reasons, but he went completed his second straight full practice on Thursday and should be good to go on Friday vs. Arizona.
Andersen missed Sunday’s game with ‘minor leg tightness’ but was on the ice for the game day skate this afternoon. He was the first on off of the ice and told the media after practice that his leg feels good but he “needs to see how I feel before tonight’s game”. So if Andersen’s leg is OK, he is your starter, if not, it will be Jason LaBarbera.
Andersen was unavailable on Sunday because of minor leg tightness, but he was back on the ice this morning for the game day skate. While he was the first one off, Jason LaBarbera followed him about a minute later. This suggests that Andersen will get the call if his leg is good to go, but they did not want to keep LaBarbera on for extra work incase Andresen is unable to go. Stay tuned.
Andersen did not suit up for Sunday's game due to leg tightness, but he was on the ice with the Ducks this afternoon. The Ducks recalled Igor Bobkov and have Jason LaBarbera still on the team so that suggests that Andersen might not be ready to play on Wednesday vs. the Islanders. Monitor his status during tomorrow's morning skate.
The Ducks have recalled Jason LaBarbera from Norfolk (AHL) on an emergency basis to backup John Gibson tonight in Colorado. Andersen is listed as day-to-day.
Andersen stopped 21 of 22 shots in the Ducks 2-1 OT win over the Stars on Friday. He improved to 7-1-0 with a 1.60 GAA and .941 SV% on the season. John Gibson has played well since being recalled, but it looks like the Ducks are set to roll with Andersen as their number-1.

Andersen only had to stop 11 of 12 shots to earn a 5-1 win over the Sabres last night. Despite head coach Bruce Boudreau saying both goalies would play twice on this road trip and most people believing that John Gibson would go tonight, it is Andersen who will put his 2-0 record on the line tonight vs. the winless Flyers.
Head coach Bruce Boudreau said both goalies would play twice on this road-trip which suggested John Gibson would start tonight after Andersen started vs. the Sabres last night. I guess we will have to wait until pre-game warmups to see who gets the start. Andersen faced just 12 shots (stopped 11) in the afternoon game yesterday, so he is fresh enough to play the back-to-back.
Andersen allowed two goals on 29 shots in a 3-2 win over the Red Wings on Saturday. John Gibson was lit up in his first start, so the Ducks will go to Andersen for two straight games. He is a must-start against Sabres this afternoon.
