Frederik Andersen Likely To Start Against Oilers
4 years agoToronto Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen is set to make his seventh appearance of the season on Thursday against the Oilers. The 31-year-old Dane had a rocky start to the year by giving up nine goals in his first two starts, but he has coughed up only eight goals since then. Andersen is tied for the league-lead in goalie wins with a 4-2-0 record and he has a 2.84 goals-against average and a .896 save percentage for the season. He's done superbly against Edmonton throughout his career, winning 13 of 16 appearances, and he'll be in a good spot to pick up another win on Thursday. The Oilers will counter with Mikko Koskinen, who has given up 11 goals in his last three starts.
