Prospect Info: 2017 NHL Draft / Pick #7 - Lias Andersson (C)

[Ola]

How did he look shooting the puck, handling the puck and overall compete level.

Game one, but it would be nice to know if he was more involved as the game went on. The assist on the GW is nice secondary or not.

Overall impression on game 1?

Seems like a great game to watch, everyone cept TDA in action more or less. I will try to get time to watch it later.

Don't know what to make of Lias in the AHL instead of the SHL. Time will tell!

I don't know that much about what Game Score measures, it would probably be good if someone explained it, but Lias ranks as number 27 among forwards in the SHL this season.

Depends on the inputs to the model, but the one Dom uses for corsica seems to work pretty well. I’m more impressed at how it looks when you factor in his TOI. He jumps to 17th, which just shows how strong of a season he’s had.

I'm not 100% sure but i think it uses a combination of rate stats (5v5 only i think but maybe special teams too just differently), Corsi, maybe penalty differential and some other things... I'm guessing it values 5v5 production/60 and Corsi most though.

Player Game Score = (0.75 * G) + (0.7 * A1) + (0.55 * A2) + (0.075 * SOG) + (0.05 * BLK) + (0.15 * PD) – (0.15 * PT) + (0.01 * FOW) – (0.01 * FOL) + (0.05 * CF) – (0.05 * CA) + (0.15 * GF) – (0.15* GA)

Goalie Game Score = (-0.75 * GA) + (0.1 * SV)

"It should be noted that Corsi and Goal stats are 5v5 adjusted, and all other stats include all situations. Per game represents average Game Score per game which is calculated by taking Total Game Score and dividing it by number of games played."

Are Lias’ CF% and xGF% available? Does Sweden have any additional possession stats tracked?

Asking Petter for it, doubt xGF% is available though, but i'll ask for CF% and Rel.CF%.

PPG player in the AHL. Not bad for a rookie

How’d Lias do tonight, anyone know?

 

[haveandare]

Looks like he didn't get any points since his hockeydb page shows 2 games played and that 1 assist.

Do we not have any HWP watchers on here anymore?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I used to watch HFD games when there were cheaper options but at the current cost, it is simply not worth it because the quality is poop

AHLLive is the only option to watch them and the quality is garbage and it's way too expensive.

That explains it.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

My post will probably be edited or deleted for mentioning the name, but for years hockeystreams.com was a great source to watch AHL games at a relatively low price.

With them down, it just isn't worth it to buy packages for all leagues individually

Is that some sort of factor analysis? Anyway with a stats background know?

 

[JayMan82]

Andersson with a PP 2nd assist and Chytil with 2 primary assists with the game still in the 2nd period tonight. The boys are producing!

Is there anywhere to check the box score of ahl games?

Copying this from the Chytil thread. Didn't realize I posted it there:

The things Lias need to improve are things you can improve. In that regard, he reminds me of Day. He is good at what you can't teach and has to improve at what you can teach. Day is a more boom-or-bust player of course.

It's the only way I'd compare the two. The reason I compare Lias to Bergeron is because he is already so mature. He is already so serious about it all, and his style translates very well to NHL hockey. He was important for HV71 when they won the SHL. He was, after he got some well-needed rest, important to Frolunda this season. And he was the best player for Sweden after Dahlin at the WJC. He has shown so far that he is capable of taking that next step each and every time.

He has some developing to do still, but so does Chytil. From what I have seen from Lias, he is very dominant for someone his age. In the role he was given in Goteborg, he played very mature. What I like most about Lias is his vision and his ability to always be there where he needs to be. That's where, for me at least, the Bergeron comparison makes the most sense. I don't compare based on potential but more on specific elements.

I'm curious if the Rangers are hoping he can step in and play down the stretch here for the team.

Gorton told the media back in camp that when Lias was cut, they told him to go back to Sweden and play the year there, and not worry about the Rangers, and come back ready for next summer.

Now they have him over in the AHL (which is fine), and Brooks is talking about him potentially getting a shot to get a call up (which again, is fine).

I wonder what changed management's mind. I know it was reported in the last couple days that Lias wanted to rehab in North America because he had a shot at playing for the team this year.

But I hope they don't expect him to play more than the 9 games for his ELC. If they burn a year, I will not be happy

 

[Kovalev27]

He had a great world juniors and we’ve got nothing down the middle after Zibanejad and Hayes

He may have forced their hand especially if we are selling bodies.

 

[haveandare]

Just my two cents, but I think if they're looking to bring a player up, Chytil would be first. He's been in the A significantly longer and is still nearly ppg.
