New Oilers goalie Frederik Andersen reassured knee will be OK
from Sportsnet,
Frederik Andersen isn't concerned about any risk of injury at the moment.
Despite a spotty injury history, the new Edmonton Oilers goalie dismissed the idea on Monday that his health will hold him back next season.
During the Stanley Cup playoffs, Andersen played well for the eventual-champion Carolina Hurricanes, but ended up getting replaced by Brandon Bussi. As he revealed while talking during his introductory media conference, he was dealing with a knee injury all along.
"I tweaked my knee a little bit in the game prior, so it was actually the only thing I dealt with all year," Andersen told reporters Monday, when asked if he suffered a head injury when Ivan Barbashev crashed into his head in Game 2 of the Cup final.
