A heavy barrage of shots from the Columbus Blue Jackets didn't phase Frederik Andersen.

The Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender established a new single-game career-high mark of 54 saves in Wednesday's 6-3 victory.

Anderson's handiwork included this impressive kick save in the third period.

The Danish netminder has allowed more than three goals just once since the calendar flipped to 2018; he gave up four in a loss to the Ottawa Senators on Jan. 10.

Andersen's milestone night came on a historic evening for the opponents, as well. Columbus became the first team in the expansion era to fire at least 50 shots on goal in three consecutive games.
