Anderson, 41, spent last season with the Sabres, where he played in 31 games and registered a 17-12-2 record with a 3.12 goals-against average and an .897 save percentage.

Sabres general manager Kevyn Adams has some work to do this offseason in goal, as Anderson is currently the only goalie under contract with the team heading into next season.

This will be Anderson’s 20th season in the NHL, with other stops coming with the Chicago Blackhawks, Florida Panthers, Colorado Avalanche, Washington Capitals and Ottawa Senators along the way.
