The 25-year-old, who was a third-round pick (No. 78) by the Senators in the 2013 NHL Draft, was also recalled earlier in the season when Anderson previously was injured and is 0-1-0 with a 1.82 GAA and .925 save percentage in two games (one start).
Hogberg made 24 saves on 26 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Calgary Flames on Nov. 30.
"He's a guy that I think is going to be a good NHL goalie, given enough opportunity, and he's going to get another chance to start," Smith said. "So, instead of looking at it as a negative, I look at it as a positive, we'll get another look at him."
