Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Opens on top line
Anderson had one shot and six hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Penguins.
Anderson was the latest Montreal forward to skate on the top line alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. He joined a rotation that has included Juraj Slafkovsky, Kirby Dach and Emil Heineman. Anderson eventually swapped spots with Dach on Saturday and skated on the second line. Canadiens head coach Martin St. Louis started the season with Slafkovsky on the top unit, which may be the most productive combination, but the coach has since dropped him to the second line in an effort to balance out scoring among the lines. Anderson's six hits raised his season total to 29 through 12 outings, second-most on the team.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Notches assist Sunday
Anderson logged an assist and three hits in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Flyers.
Anderson was questionable for this game after exiting Saturday's contest with a lower-body injury. The winger was able to play, logging 15:33 of ice time in his usual middle-six role. He contributed his third assist in four games. For the season, Anderson has four points, 14 shots on net, 18 hits, eight PIM and an even plus-minus rating over nine appearances. He can rack up hits and PIM, but he hasn't exceeded the 40-point mark in the last five seasons, so Anderson is a low-end fantasy option in most formats.

Anderson (lower body) will be in the lineup for Sunday's road game against the Flyers, according to Jonathan Bernier of the Montreal Journal.
Anderson left Saturday's tilt against the Blues after blocking a shot. The injury appears to have been minor, and the right-shot winger will slot back in on the second line. Anderson has registered a goal and two assists over eight outings.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Traveling with team
Anderson sustained a lower-body injury in Saturday's game versus the Blues, but he will travel to Philadelphia ahead of Sunday's contest, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Anderson's presence on the road trip is an encouraging sign after he left in the third period of Saturday's game following a blocked shot. The winger has filled a middle-six role, earning three points through eight appearances this season. After being called up from AHL Laval on Saturday, Lucas Condotta could replace Anderson in Sunday's lineup.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Helps in shootout loss
Anderson recorded an assist, four blocked shots and one hit in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Islanders.
Anderson's bid on a rush went wide of the net, but Jake Evans corralled the rebound and set up rookie Logan Mailloux for a goal that tied the game, 2-2, early in the second period. The assist was Anderson's second point of the season. He's filling a wing on the third line, but unlike previous campaigns in Montreal, Anderson isn't a regular on the power play. Through six outings, the forward has been on the ice for just 38 seconds when Montreal's on the man advantage.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Pockets first goal
Anderson scored a goal on two shots and had four hits in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Bruins.
Anderson changed the trajectory of a Kaiden Guhle shot from the point midway through the third period to make it a 5-3 score. It's a positive sign for the forward to have scored this early in the season; Anderson did not find the back of the net until the 24th game last year and scored just nine times (6.4 shooting percentage) over 78 games.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Scores in blowout win
Anderson scored a goal, went plus-1 and logged one hit in 14:15 of ice time in Tuesday's 9-3 win over Philadelphia.
Anderson scored an ugly one to make it 5-0 in the second period, shoving a puck into the crease which trickled past Samuel Ersson while being hooked down by Philadelphia's Nick Seeler on a partial breakaway. The goal snapped a 15-game pointless streak for Anderson, who now has just nine tallies and 10 assists through 74 games on the year. He'll remain a fringe fantasy option at best in most formats in 2024-25.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Assist, fight in win

Anderson and Luke Schenn dropped the gloves early in the second period. Later that period, Anderson assisted on Montreal's first goal. He has points in two straight but just 18 overall in 58 games. On another team, that may not warrant top-six status and a spot on the power play, but that's where the Canadiens are right now.

Anderson had an assist, three shots, one block and two hits over 14:50 of ice time in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers.
Anderson's attempt was stopped by Jonathan Quick, but the Rangers left Jake Evans all alone in front, and he backhanded the rebound past the goalie to give Montreal a 1-0 lead.

It was just the second point in eight games for Anderson since returning from a lower-body injury. He's back on the second line following a brief spell on the top line.

Canadiens' Josh Anderson: Back on top line
Anderson had an assist, two shots, one block and five hits over 12:38 of ice time in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.
Following a three-game losing streak, Montreal head coach Martin St. Louis flipped the line assignments for Anderson and Juraj Slafkovsky. Anderson's assist on the Sean Monahan's game-winning goal was just his second point in the last 10 games. He opened the game on the top line with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield and took several even-strength shifts with his new linemates. The officials called a tight game, which resulted in eight power-play opportunities for New York and five for Montreal, which served to cap Anderson's TOI.
