Andersen (lower body) is still being evaluated by coach Rod Brind'Amour told reporters he was "under the impression that it shouldn't be too serious," per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site on Wednesday.
Even with a somewhat positive update, Andersen should probably be expected to miss out versus the Bruins on Thursday, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. The veteran backstop had been playing every other game to open the season while splitting the crease with Pyotr Kochetkov, which would have meant Andersen got the nod Thursday. Instead, it looks like Kochetkov could go in consecutive games for the first time this year.
