What It Means:

Anderson has gone 3-2 in his last five starts, bringing him to 16-8-1 on the season. His .929 save percentage and 2.31 goals against average are both on pace to be his best marks since the 2012-2013 season.

Anderson is our second-ranked fantasy goalie among the 20 starters projected to take the ice on Wednesday. Our models project him for 24.6 saves, 1.9 goals against and a 68.0 percent chance of scoring a win.
