Anders Nilsson taking next step with Senators

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.
