Josh Anderson News

Anderson appeared in a game with Cleveland (AHL) over the weekend and will get into the Blue Jackets lineup tomorrow in Carolina. Anderson skated with Brandon Dubinsky and Matt Calvert on the third line on Monday.

Anderson missed training camp due to a contract dispute, but signed a three-year deal on Tuesday. Despite inking a new contract, head coach John Tortorella said that Anderson is out on Friday. Anderson will likely need a few practice sessions to get back into the swing of things, but don’t expect the power-forward to sit out for too many contests.

Anderson held out of training camp as an unsigned RFA, but gets a contract one-day before the start of the NHL season. The 23-year-old is coming off of 17-goal, 12-assist season and will look to carve out a larger role this season. Missing training camp will put Anderson behind the 8-ball and likely force him to start the season in the bottom-6.

Anderson missed the last three games with a lower-body injury, but it expected to replace Lauri Korpikoski in the lineup in Philadelphia. Anderson has scored 14 goals with 10 assists while playing limited minutes in 63 games this season.

Anderson was hurt in Sunday’s win over the Devils and it will keep him sidelined for at least one week. Anderson hyperextended his knee and his injury opens the door for T.J. Tynan to make his NHL debut on Monday.

Anderson missed the third period vs. the Red Wings after being hit by Brendan Smith and did not return. Despite being in concussion protocol, it looks like Anderson will be in the lineup on Thursday. Anderson has 10 goals and nine assists (19 points) in 51 games this season.

Anderson was forced from Tuesday’s game after being hit by Red Wings’ defenseman Brendan Smith. The Blue Jackets felt that the hit was questionable, but it went unpenalized. Monitor Anderson’s status prior to Thursday’s game vs. the Canucks. Expect Markus Hannikainen to replace him if he can't go.

Anderson, 21, has scored 18 goals with 18 assists (36 points) in 53 games with Lake Erie this season. He will likely take Sonny Milano’s spot in the Blue Jackets’ top-6 with Milano heading back the other way. Anderson has one goal and three assists in 16 career NHL games.

The Blue Jackets have a back-to-back on Friday and Saturday, so they want an extra forward with the team. Anderson has three goals and one assist in eight games with Lake Erie this season. He also has one career assist in six NHL games.

Anderson, 20, recorded one assist in six games with the Blue Jackets. He heads back to the AHL to make room for Ryan Murray to be activated from IR. He has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 39 games with Springfield (AHL).

Anderson, 20, did not record a point and was a minus-1 in four games before the All Star break. He has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 39 games with Springfield.

Anderson has recorded 11 points (4G / 7A) in 37 games in his first season with Springfield (AHL). This morning he skated on a line with Mark Letestu and Sean Collins.

Anderson, 20, was a fourth-round pick (95th overall) of the Blue Jackets in 2012. He has registered four goals, seven assists (11 points) and 56 penalty minutes in 37 games with Springfield in 2014-15, his first professional campaign.

Anderson, 19, was the 95th overall pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft. He is currently a member of the London Knights (OHL) where he has seven goals and eight assists (15 points) in 16 games.
