Anderson might be the oldest player in the NHL, but he’s playing like he still has some of that youthful...

Here’s a fun fact: the Toronto Maple Leafs have now lost five-straight games to teams using a 40-plus-year-old goaltender.

After Anderson’s time in Ottawa came to a close in 2020, it looked like that was it. But it wasn’t. He signed in Washington and played just six games between the regular season and playoffs as the team looked to shore up its taxi squad. The Sabres then brought him in for 2021-22, and while the final stats might not look great, he had more than his fair share of fantastic performances.

Anderson is the oldest player in the NHL today – 15,273 days old, to be exact – and one of just 24 goalies to play over the age of 40. Maurice Roberts was the oldest to ever get a start back in 1951. So getting into your 40s as an NHL goaltender – especially in the rough and tumble butterfly era that tends to end careers quite early – is a challenge on its own.
