Frederik Andersen
Frederik Andersen (born 2 October 1989) is a Danish professional ice hockey goaltender currently playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League (NHL). He has also played for the Anaheim Ducks. Andersen was a member of Denmark's national team that competed at the 2010 IIHF World Championship. He was selected by the Carolina Hurricanes in the seventh round, 187th overall, of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. Unable to come to terms with the Hurricanes, however, Andersen was selected in the third round of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, 87th overall, by the Ducks, with whom he spent the first few years of his NHL career.

Frederik Andersen is skating again, and it’s big news for the Canes

Carolina has been lucky in its current goaltending situation in that they’ve been able to roll any one of their three netminders and get results. It cushioned the blow when their starting netminder and Vezina candidate was knocked out of a game against Colorado. However, Frederik Andersen has returned to the ice, and the Hurricanes are now in a very interesting position.

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Remains out of lineup

Andersen won't be available Sunday for Game of the Hurricanes' first-round series against the Bruins due to a lower-body injury, CardiacCane.com reports. Antti Raanta's starting with Pyotr Kochetkov working in a backup role. The Hurricanes lead the series 2-1 and have thus far outplayed Boston without needing Andersen, who has been skating on his own but remains without a concrete return timeline.

Is Frederik Andersen playing tonight? Injury details on the Hurricanes goaltender

The Hurricanes start their quest for the Cup tonight with a Game 1 matchup against the Bruins. But they are starting the postseason without their No. 1 goaltender. Frederik Andersen will not play in Game 1, coach Rod Brind'Amour announced Sunday. The 32-year-old has been dealing with a lower-body injury that he suffered in a game against the Avalanche on April 16.

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Still sidelined

Andersen (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Bruins, CardiacCane.com reports. The Hurricanes likely don't feel the need to rush Andersen back, as Antti Raanta was fantastic in Monday's Game 1 versus Boston, stopping 35 of 36 shots en route to a 5-1 victory. Barring a poor performance, Raanta will almost certainly continue to operate as Carolina's workhorse in goal until Andersen is ready to return.

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Ruled out of Game 1

Andersen (undisclosed) won't be available for Monday's Game 1 versus the Bruins, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports. Andersen skated on his own Sunday, which is a step in the right direction, but he'll presumably need to practice with the team before making his postseason debut. With Andersen on the shelf, look for Antti Raanta or Pyotr Kochetkov to get the start in goal in Game 1.

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen, Antti Raanta win William M. Jennings Trophy

Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Still not skating

Andersen (undisclosed) has yet to resume skating according to coach Rod Brind'Amour, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports Thursday. Given the fact that Andersen has yet to get back on the ice, fantasy players should probably anticipate him missing some of the playoffs in addition to Thursday's regular-season finale. Still, despite the layoff, Andersen should immediately reclaim his spot as the preferred option between the pipes whenever given the all-clear to return.
