Well, how is that for a kick in the teeth? Not long after saying that Craig Anderson's status for Saturday night's game against Arizona was questionable, at best, but not long after I pressed publish on the post, the Ottawa Senators placed the 33-year old keeper on the Injured Reserve, which changes his status in a big hurry.With his placement on the Injured Reserve, Anderson won't be eligible to return until late next week, which makes his immediate status for Saturday change to 'out.' It's just that easy.
Anderson has only been decent this season for the Senators, possibly the combination between some off nights and some bad lineups in front of him, both of which likely helped in the coaching change this season. In 31 appearances, the Ottawa number one only has 13 wins and 3 shutouts for 32 points, which is just a shade over a point-per-appearance. This ranks him 99th overall, 23rd among all goalies this season, which does keep him as a starter among pool goalies this year.Cam took Anderson in the 3rd round, 48th overall, expecting a little bit more out of the Senators and their number one guy this season, but hasn't quite seen the results, he was after. Despite that fact, Cam isn't in bad shape this year, 6 points out of 3rd place.
