Andersen saved all 18 shots he faced in Tuesday's 4-0 Game Four win over the Montreal Canadiens, setting a franchise record for three shutouts in a single postseason, and more importantly, helping his team take a commanding 3-1 series lead. The 36-year-old goalie has battled occasional inconsistencies in previous playoff runs, but has been terrific this year, posting a stellar 1.44 GAA and .928 SV% in 12 games (11-1). The Hurricanes hope to advance to the Stanley Cup finals with a victory, entering Game Five as sizeable -239 home favourites.

The 36-year-old Andersen has faced only 46 shots through three games against the Montreal Canadiens, allowing nine goals (.804 SV%), but has made some timely saves to help ensure a 2-1 series lead. The Hurricanes enter a pivotal Game Four as -147 road favourites.

The 29-year-old superstar forward has four points (1G / 3A) and a -6 plus/minus through four games this postseason.
