In a surprise move, the Edmonton Oilers have reportedly signed veteran goaltender Frederik Andersen to a one-year deal, just days after his departure from the Carolina Hurricanes. Andersen, 36, had a standout season with the Hurricanes, helping the team advance to the Stanley Cup Final before being ultimately replaced by Brandon Bussi in the series. Despite his impressive playoff run, Andersen's tenure with the Hurricanes came to an end, but it appears he's found a new home in Edmonton, where he'll look to bolster the team's goaltending depth in the coming season. The signing is a significant addition for the Oilers, who are looking to build on their own playoff aspirations after a disappointing exit from the postseason last year.


Veteran goaltender Frederik Andersen, 36, who helped the Carolina Hurricanes win three playoff series before giving the starter's net up to Brandon Bussi in the Stanley Cup Final last month, agreed to a one-year deal with the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday.
