I'm not holding my breath or anything...just think it would be funny if we're in the 2nd or 3rd round and hit injuries and regin plays after we thought he was done for the year.

In December when he was shutdown, it was said 6 months, so April would be 8 1/2 weeks early. I don't think there is much hope for him this season.

Lehner and Bishop have filled in very, very well but I am looking forward to having Anderson back. He brings some clamness and swagger to the team, and is good for team chemistry. Start of a turn around, Montreal is losing the next one!

Good to hear Andy is back, though I really like Bishop's play. He makes the game easier to play for our D men with his rebound control and puck handling. I hope this sparks another winning streak.

This was what I was referring to when asking about Auld. Thanks for the clarification.

Hopefully he's back in good form when he plays. If he is, this little rest could be a blessing in disguise.

Yes, it will pay off in the third and fourth rounds, when Anderson will still have lots of mojo.

Any mention about him starting tomorrow?
Nvm, went back a page. Guess he IS!
