Blackhawks' Joey Anderson: Bound for Windy City
Rotowire
Anderson was acquired by Chicago from Toronto on Tuesday, along with Pavel Gogolev, a 2025 first-round selection and a 2026 second-round pick, in a trade for Jake McCabe, Sam Lafferty and a pair of fifth-round picks. Per the NHL media site, Anderson has been added to the Hawks' NHL roster.
Considering Anderson passed through waivers less than a week ago without being claimed, it's a little surprising to see him drawing interest as part of a trade. Over his five-year NHL career, the 24-year-old Minnesota native has logged just 72 games for the Devils and Leafs in which he tallied 16 points. With his new club, Anderson could be in the mix for a bottom-six role but likely won't meet the team in time to face Anaheim on Monday.

Maple Leafs' Joey Anderson: Nets second goal of 2022-23
Rotowire
Anderson provided a goal in Toronto's 6-2 loss to Ottawa on Friday.

Anderson was summoned from the AHL on Tuesday and has recorded 14 goals and 27 points in 30 contests with the Marlies in 2022-23. While his AHL numbers have been impressive, keep in mind that the 24-year-old entered Friday's action averaging just 8:39 of ice time with the Maple Leafs this season and logged 8:15 on Friday, so Anderson's offensive contributions in the NHL are likely to be limited by his small role.
