Craig Anderson knows how to get the Ottawa Senators fans going.

The retired Ottawa Senators goalie rang the bell to kick off Game 3 of the Eastern Conference First Round between his former team and the Toronto Maple Leafs at Canadian Tire Centre on Thursday.

Anderson sported his familiar No. 41 Senators jersey as he pumped his arms to encourage the fans to get louder and then sounded the bell.

Senators were hyped to watch their first home playoff game since the 2017 NHL playoffs, which Anderson was in net for.

The former goalie played 10 seasons for Ottawa from 2011-2020. He retired at the end of the 2022-23 season after 20 NHL seasons.
