I was a big fan of Anders. Even a bigger fan of Ulfie. They came in the NHL (played with Bobby Hull in the WHL) and took a beating by other teams like the Bruins. The two Swedes powered through abuse. Ulfie was a cool stick handling playmaker that sadly got injured. Anders was a good skater with his really good wrist shot. He was very dependable as a goal scorer. .

Just a solid and smart all around player. Really really good skater. He was the Rangers player I'd watch most just for that and tried to incorporate into my own. When you're still pretty young and you play you look at guys and try to emulate shit they do. He was a major one for me.
