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.
