| Organizational Comments: "he is a good two-way hockey player. I like Andersson because he goes in the hard areas, he goes in the corner and in front of the net. He is a defensive kind of player. He has to improve his skating though." Red Wings Scout GM Ken Holland |
What GRC says:
2008-09: Thrown directly into the pressure cooker, Andersson had just one game of experience before being made a regular for the playoffs. He acquitted himself quite well, posting 4 points in 11 games while playing a physical game. Centering the second line, he was highly visible, winning battles in front, aggressively wading into the scrums, and making some nice plays with puck. He could use some work on his quickness, and add a little more bulk to his frame, but he has another year in the SEL to work on those things.
Spring 2009: Andersson is still committed to playing in Sweden for at least another season, but the wings wanted to get a look at him over here prior to his contract deadline. His complimentary skill set should work nicely in the Griffins lineup if he gets a chance to play.
