Maple Leafs name Frederik Andersen as starter for Friday

Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Frederik Andersen will man the post against the New Jersey Devils on Friday night.

What It Means:

Andersen has had a rough start to the new year, picking up two losses that included a six-goal shellacking on Tuesday in an overtime loss to the Washington Capitals. Tonight provides a solid opportunity to turn it around against a Devils team that is third-worst in the NHL this season with 2.28 goals for per game. Andersen has gone 16-8-7 on the year with a .920 save percentage and 2.63 goals-against average.

Andersen is numberFire's second-ranked fantasy goalie on Friday night. Our models project him for 27.4 saves, 2.2 goals against and a 54.0 percent chance of recording a win.
