Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Tallies shortie in return
Anderson scored a shorthanded goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Capitals.
Anderson missed the previous six games due to an upper-body injury. His goal Tuesday opened the scoring at 8:14 of the first period. The 31-year-old winger has 14 points (10 goals, four assists) over 41 contests, and he's earned three of those points while shorthanded. He's also accumulated 54 shots on net, 38 PIM, 76 hits and 28 blocked shots while mostly playing on the third line.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Good to go
Anderson (upper body) will return to the lineup against Washington on Tuesday, per Patrick Friolet of RDS.
Following a six-game absence, Anderson will occupy a third-line role against the Capitals on Tuesday. He has supplied nine goals, 13 points, 52 shots on net, 74 hits and 38 PIM across 40 appearances this season. With Anderson good to go, Owen Beck will be a healthy scratch.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Will take warm-up
Anderson (upper body) will be on the ice for warmups before a decision is made regarding his availability against Washington on Tuesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Anderson has been on the shelf for the Habs' lineup since Jan. 1 versus the Hurricanes, a stretch of six games on the sidelines. If Anderson does return to action, it will likely be in a bottom-six role that could see Sammy Blais or Owen Beck dropped from the lineup as a healthy scratch.

Owen Beck will remain in the lineup for Monday's matchup against Vancouver.

Anderson is set to miss his fifth straight game. Owen Beck remains in the lineup in place of Anderson.

Anderson (upper body) won't play against Dallas on Sunday, according to Patrick Friolet of RDS.
Anderson will miss his second straight game, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup.

Owen Beck will occupy a bottom-six role in Sunday's lineup against the Stars due to Anderson's absence.

Anderson (undisclosed) won't play against St. Louis on Saturday, per Guillaume Lefrancois of La Presse.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Suffers undisclosed injury
Anderson sustained an undisclosed injury and won't return to Thursday's game against Carolina.
Anderson scored a goal in 9:36 of ice time before exiting the game. That marker brings him up to nine goals and 13 points in 40 outings this season. If he can't play Saturday versus St. Louis, then Owen Beck will probably draw back into the lineup.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Scores two late goals Saturday
Anderson scored a short-handed goal and an empty-net goal in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.
Anderson came through late in the game for the Canadiens, giving Montreal a 3-0 lead with a shortie at the 12:14 mark of the final frame and later tallying an empty-netter with a wrister at 17:02. This was Anderson's second multi-goal performance of the season, with the prior one coming against the Maple Leafs in a 5-2 win Nov. 22. He has eight goals this season, but as a player who has a bottom-six role and is not part of the top power-play unit, his chances of contributing in fantasy on a steady basis are slim right now.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Finds twine in loss
Anderson scored a goal and blocked a shot in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers.
Anderson tallied Montreal's lone goal of the second period to give his team a 4-2 lead. With the twine finder, he is up to six goals, nine points, 37 shots on net, 56 hits and 26 blocks through 31 games this season. Anderson has been one of the team's most successful offensive options in the bottom six despite ending a nine-game point drought Saturday. He has solid category coverage but lacks the high-end offensive stats needed to succeed in fantasy.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Scores two goals Saturday
Anderson scored two goals, including an empty-netter, in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
Anderson did a good job capitalizing on his opportunities, as his two shots in this game found the back of the net. However, don't expect him to be a reliable fantasy contributor, as he holds a bottom-six role in the Canadiens' lineup. Anderson has five goals and eight points in 21 outings this season.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Scores against former team
Anderson scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
Anderson has picked up the pace with two goals and two assists over his last six games. He's up on the third line now, though his ice time remains fairly steady from where it was earlier in the year. He may get more opportunities to make an impact due to the long-term absences of Patrik Laine (abdomen), Alex Newhook (ankle) and Kirby Dach (foot). Anderson has three goals, six points, 20 shots on net, 29 hits, 12 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 19 appearances and should remain steady in the non-scoring areas even if his offense dips again.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Scores lone goal in loss
Anderson scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Kings.
Anderson has a goal and an assist over his last three games. Despite being listed on the fourth line, he's seen ample ice time, averaging 15:04 per game this season while adding four points, 17 shots, 23 hits, 10 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating. Anderson's had a slow enough start that he'll likely fall shy of the 20-goal mark for a third straight season, but he may be a useful physical winger in deep formats.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Pots goal in loss
Anderson scored a goal and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Oilers.
Anderson netted his first goal of the campaign at 16:57 of the second period, the first of three tallies over a span of 1:52 to give the Canadiens a lead late in the frame. The 31-year-old winger has been quiet on offense so far, earning two points, 12 shots on net, 11 hits, four PIM and five blocked shots across nine outings. He's scored at least 15 goals in four of the previous five campaigns, so there is some potential for more offense here, but it's unclear if he'll cash in on it this year as a middle-six forward better known for his checking.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Records assist Saturday
Anderson notched an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.
Anderson has started 2025-26 in a middle-six role, but he has yet to make much of an impact on offense. His helper Saturday was his first point of the campaign, and he's added six shots on net, nine hits, four blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. Anderson has missed the 30-point mark in consecutive seasons, and his mainly defensive usage means that threshold is likely his ceiling for scoring.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Adds helper in loss
Anderson recorded an assist, two shots on goal, six hits and six PIM in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals in Game 2.
While Anderson was a bit aggressive in this contest, two of his penalties were offset by a coincidental penalty to the Capitals, and one of those instances was at the end of the game. The assist ended Anderson's five-game point drought. The winger had 27 points, 109 shots, 176 hits, 90 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 81 regular-season outings and will continue to play in a middle-six capacity in the postseason.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Goal, assist in win
Anderson scored a goal and recorded an assist in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.
Anderson went pointless in his previous two outings, but he made his presence felt after contributing to two of the Canadiens' four goals in this one. The 30-year-old has surpassed his point total from last season and is up to 27 points across 77 contests, but that low-scoring total suggests he's not much of a fantasy asset in most formats.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Set to return against Nashville
Anderson (personal) was on the ice for warmups ahead of Sunday's game against the Predators, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.
Anderson missed Saturday's game against Philadelphia due to the birth of his first child, but it appears as though he'll be back in action for the second half of the back-to-back set. Anderson has recorded points in three of his last five appearances, racking up two goals, an assist, 10 hits, a blocked shot and six PIM while averaging 14:57 of ice time across that span.
