Next Game
Eligibility
Availability
Josh Anderson posted two points for the Canadiens Tuesday night, scoring one goal and picking up one assist in a 4-1 win over the Red Wings.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson has heated up in the offensive zone, collecting points in four of his last seven games (three goals, two assists) for the Canadiens. The winger has not provided fantasy managers with a reliable offensive option for much of the season, recording just 27 points (15 goals, 12 assists) in 77 games so far this season.
Josh Anderson scored a goal, recorded two PIM, delivered three hits, and finished plus-2 in Saturday’s 5-2 victory over Ottawa. The tally snapped a 10-game point drought for the veteran winger.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson remains a middle-six fixture in Montreal’s lineup, but his offensive production continues to be inconsistent. With nine goals and 19 points through 57 games, he’s on pace to exceed last season’s disappointing 20-point output, but a return to his previous 20-goal form seems unlikely given his declining shot volume. While his physical play (124 hits, 58 PIM) adds fantasy value in deeper leagues, he remains a streaky scorer best suited for category-based formats.
Josh Anderson tallied an assist, two hits, and four penalty minutes in the Canadiens' 5-4 overtime victory against the Rangers on Sunday. The veteran winger has three points over his last six games, contributing steady production on the third line.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson’s gritty style continues to provide value in leagues that reward physical stats. With 18 points, 60 shots on net, 104 hits, and 54 penalty minutes through 46 games, he offers a balanced mix of depth offense and toughness. While his minus-7 rating limits his appeal in some formats, Anderson remains a solid option for managers in need of multi-category contributions, particularly in leagues emphasizing hits and PIM.
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.
Josh Anderson scored the Canadiens’ first goal of the game, registering one shot on goal, a plus-one rating, and 12:36 of ice time. He also added 2:18 of penalty-kill time.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson’s contributions in scoring and his deployment in key defensive roles make him a valuable depth piece in fantasy leagues, especially formats rewarding hits and plus-minus.
