Anders Nilsson is considered by many to be the Ottawa Senators starter in net for at least this year and the next. Him and Anderson have been a great duo together and hope to continue their success in the crease.
Standing a 6-foot-7 and 232 lbs, Nilsson basically covers the whole net. The Swedish native was traded to the Ottawa Senators late last season, in a trade where the Senators didn’t really give up anything.
Ottawa received Anders Nilsson and Darren Archibald, in exchange for Tom Pyatt and, then-back up goalie Mike McKenna. Vancouver also received a sixth round pick to boot.
