  • Andersen (knee) isn't expected back until "maybe" December, head coach Mike Babcock told NHL.com on Tuesday.

    Andersen, who signed a one-year, $1 million contract with Edmonton in July, is still rehabbing from a knee injury. He posted a 16-14-5 record with a 3.05 GAA and an .874 save percentage in 35 appearances for Carolina during the 2025-26 regular season. Once he's ready to play in the 2026-27 campaign with the Oilers, Andersen could compete for starts with Tristan Jarry and Devon Levi.

  • Andersen will not take part in training camp due to an undisclosed injury suffered during the offseason, the Oilers announced Wednesday.

    Per Ryan Rishaug of TSN, Andersen could be out until late October. Andersen looked poised to enter the 2026-27 season as the No. 1 option in Edmonton, but his absence from training camp could open the door for both Tristan Jarry and Devon Levi. Considering the 36-year-old Andersen hasn't appeared in more than 35 regular-season games since the 2021-22 campaign, he was unlikely to be a top goaltender option even if healthy. This injury could further impact his fantasy value.

  • Andersen signed a one-year, $1 million contract with the Oilers on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.

    The deal's value could increase to $2.8 million with performance bonuses. Andersen can earn up to $1 million in bonuses for games played, and an additional $200,000 per playoff round the Oilers win in which he plays at least half of the games. It's a worthy gamble for the Oilers, who will get a Stanley Cup-winning goalie on the roster to pair with Tristan Jarry, as well as a quality depth option in Devon Levi. Given the various question marks with all three netminders, it wouldn't be surprising for Edmonton to carry all three throughout the season.

  • Andersen stopped 12 of 16 shots over two periods in Saturday's 5-4 double-overtime loss to the Golden Knights in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

    Andersen gave up all four goals in the last half of the second period. Brandon Bussi took over in goal to begin the third, and he allowed just one goal on 19 shots, which came in the second overtime. Andersen's magic from earlier in the postseason might be running out -- he's allowed 12 goals on 65 shots over three games versus Vegas. Overall, he has gone 13-2 with a 1.89 GAA and a .910 save percentage over 16 playoff outings. Given the trend of his performance, it's no guarantee Andersen gets the nod for Game 4 on Tuesday.
