Hurricanes' Frederik Andersen: Outdueled in shootout loss
Andersen made 24 of 28 saves in Thursday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Capitals.
Andersen had a strong first and third period Thursday night but allowed four consecutive goals from late in the first to the end of the second. He then tended a clean overtime before he surrendered the lone goal of the shootout to Washington's Pierre-Luc Dubois. Thursday was Andersen's first overtime loss of the season, which brings his overall record to 13-6-1 with a 2.20 GAA and a .911 save percentage across 20 games. After putting together a seven-game winning streak throughout March and into April during which he allowed just 10 goals, the 35-year-old netminder has lost back-to-back appearances and has conceded nine goals in that span. Given his track record in 2024-25, Andersen should bounce back and stay a top option in the crease for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.
