Canadiens’ Josh Anderson to be re-evaluated after apparent lower-body injury

Montreal Canadiens forward Josh Anderson will be re-evaluated when the team returns home after exiting Tuesday’s 4-3 win against the Dallas Stars with an apparent lower-body injury.

Anderson wasn’t putting any weight on his right leg and had to be helped back to the dressing room after he collided with Stars defenceman Thomas Hartley and dropped to the ice midway through the third period.

The 29-year-old from Burlington, Ont., has six goals and five assists in 39 games this season.

The Canadiens posted a 3-3-1 record during a season-long, seven-game road stretch and next play the Buffalo Sabres at home Thursday.
