The Carolina Hurricanes activated goaltender Frederik Andersen off injured reserve and he'll start Thursday's clash against the Montreal Canadiens, the team announced.
Andersen has missed Carolina's last 50 games due to a blood clot issue that ruled him out indefinitely in early November.
The 34-year-old posted a .894 save percentage in six starts this season before being sidelined. He signed a two-year, $6.8-million deal over the summer to stay with the Hurricanes.
