The Ottawa Senators will be without Craig Anderson for the near future, as the goaltender suffered a concussion before the Christmas break and will miss at least two games, general manager Pierre Dorion announced Thursday.
Anderson has started in 30 of the Senators' 37 games this season, posting a 14-13-3 record and 3.58 goals-against average. He was pulled in his last start against the New Jersey Devils after allowing five goals in two periods.
The Senators play the New York Islanders on Friday before returning home to face the Washington Capitals the next night.
Ottawa recalled goalie Marcus Hogberg from the AHL's Belleville Senators to fill Anderson's spot.
Dorion also announced defenseman Justin Falk suffered a concussion before the break and won't play this weekend.
