[benedictTavares]

nothing

 

[Manhattan]

Because he sucks?

 

[simon IC]

Jake Allen for Anderson?

 

[Taluss]

Because management is Pejorative Slured and didn't trade him when they had the chance when he looked good. Now hes f***ing injured again and his value wont be higher and is already decreasing

 

[Taluss]

Pretty pissed we are keeping him. He does absolutely nothing for us, probably could have got a pick and prospect for him. He doesn't fit a rebuild at all

 

[Just Linda]

Isn't he out with a concussion?

 

[senators101]

Nobody else is interested in paying him next year given his play over the past year. If we are lucky, Anderson has a good finish to this season and good start to next season, and someone trades for him as a 1B in the middle of next year.

 

[Brodeur]

Being signed through 2020 would make him hypothetically hard to move. I'm not sure how many teams view him currently as a #1 goalie. I doubt many teams are looking acquire a 4.75 mil backup. Mix in a partial no trade clause and it's gonna be hard to find a deal which makes sense.

Why would anyone trade more than a 6th round pick for him? If a contender actually needed a goalie for some reason, there are better options anyway.

 

[BurgoShark]

He doesn’t suck. His play behind a pretty bad team has been good... but he’s had a bit of a run of injuries. That is a concern with an older goalie. That extra year isn’t cheap either.

 

[Seanaconda]

Because management is ******ed and didn't trade him when they had the chance when he looked good. Now hes ****ing injured again and his value wont be higher and is already decreasing

Doesn’t he normally alternate between good and bad years ? Trade him next season . Also easier for a team to take a chance on a rental that’s about to be a ufa

He's one of the best playoff goalies in the NHL

 

[greasysnapper]

Because he has a M-NTC, and can easily figure out who needs a goalie and who doesn't to keep his family settled in Ottawa.

He keeps Gustavsson and Hogberg out of the NHL so they can develop. Thats not insignificant.

 

[VanW27]

~3.4 GAA and .900 sv% the last two seasons over 90 games with 4.75 mill owed for one more year

Why would anyone trade for that?

His numbers look bad but we likely have 10 or so less wins without him,he really isnt an issue....

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Every team seems to have a goalie now. But I think Anderson to Vancouver might be a possibility, maybe even Elliot to Vancouver.

 

[Hellraising Senator]

I am the only Sens fan who wants to keep the guy. He is still a capable tender. We have young guys coming up and could use his mentorship especially next year in another dark rebuild of a year.

Value wise he is likely worth a 2nd or 3rd pick. Sens have been asked about him but they arent looking at moving Andy. Word is he likes where he is. No need to drop him imo

Andy isnt the problem in Ottawa him playing behind a defense that 2nd highest paid defender actually plays for LA is...Lol

It's crazy that is a true fact

 

[topshelf15]

It's crazy that is a true fact

Cody Ceci is the team most experienced defender,and highest paid....Lol people should let that sink in before they label a good goalie like Andy terrible....He gets no support and has faced more rubber than the 401 at 5 pm in Toronto

 

[Newsworthy]

Because nobody wants him.

 

[Vitto79]

Because nobody wants him.

I dunno it’s actually a good move for Calgary to get Anderson as he’s a good platoon for next year too

Sens would need to feel good about Gustafson

 

[Hellraising Senator]

Because nobody wants him.

This comment has zero factual basis in reality. Sens have received calls and a solid amount of interest, but they are not wanting to move him. I explained why above.
