Anderson (undisclosed) will not dress for Friday's game against visiting Chicago, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports. Dustin Tokarski has been named the starter for Buffalo's season finale, with the recently recalled Michael Houser backing up. The 40-year-old Anderson managed to record 17 wins in his first season with the Sabres, recording a 3.12 GAA and .897 save percentage along the way.

Anderson (undisclosed) hasn't been ruled out of the final two games of the season, but he isn't expected to be available Thursday against the Bruins, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports. Although Anderson almost certainly won't start against Boston, he could make one last appearance for the campaign Friday versus Chicago. The 40-year-old vet has gone 17-12-2 while posting a 3.12 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 31 contests this season.

Anderson (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day and won't dress for Saturday's game against the Islanders, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. With Anderson sidelined, Dustin Tokarski will start in goal against the Isles with Aaron Dell serving as his backup. Anderson will be reevaluated ahead of Thursday's matchup with Boston.

Anderson made 29 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils. Anderson was spotted a 3-0 lead in the second period, helping himself in the process by assisting on Kyle Okposo's shorthanded goal to open the scoring. The Devils pushed back with a pair of goals sandwiched around the second intermission, but Anderson prevented them from tying the game before Buffalo extended its lead again. The veteran netminder has three wins in his last four starts and is 9-4-2 in his last 15 decisions.

Anderson will start Thursday in New Jersey, Jourdon LaBarber of the Sabres' official site reports. With a 4-3-0 record over his last seven despite an ugly 3.44 GAA and .875 save percentage during that span, Anderson has been getting plenty of goal support from the Sabres offense recently. He'll look to tidy things up in the crease against a Devils squad that's averaged a 23rd-ranked 2.96 goals for since March 1.
