NHL Monday: Blue Jackets look to extend shutout streak
see all updates

It hasn't been a great season for Ottawa Senators goaltender Craig Anderson, and after surrendering four goals on 29 shots against the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday his save percentage is down to .895 for the season, a substantial drop from the league-leading .940 mark he posted last year.

But there’s some good news! His teammates gave him enough goal support and he managed to come up big in the shootout against the Flyers for the Senators to come away with a 5-4 win.

And boy was Anderson fired up about that.
