The Toronto Maple Leafs acquired goaltender Frederik Andersen from the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for the 30th overall pick in this year's draft (acquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins) and a second-round pick in 2017, the Maple Leafs announced.
Andersen is coming off his third season with Ducks, where he lost his starting role to teammate John Gibson. Andersen started one fewer game then Gibson, posting a respectable 2.30 goals-against average and a .919 save percentage.
However, Andersen shined in the playoffs, stealing the net from a struggling Gibson and nearly leading the team to a first-round victory, turning in a stellar 1.41 goals-against average and a .947 save percentage.
