Josh Anderson scores in loss to Maple Leafs

Josh Anderson scored on his lone shot and added four hits in the Canadiens' 7-3 loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday. His backhand goal came just nine seconds after Patrik Laine's power-play tally, giving Montreal a temporary 3-0 lead in the first period.
Fantasy Impact:
Anderson's goal marked his second in the last five games and his eighth of the season. Known for his physical style, the veteran forward has now surpassed 100 hits for the eighth time in his nine NHL campaigns, with only a shortened 2019 season preventing a perfect streak. While his offensive production remains modest, Anderson provides solid value in leagues that reward hits, making him a reliable depth option for managers seeking multi-category contributions.
