TBH, I'm not even sure the tools were ever really there to begin with anymore, outside of the skating. Feels like he was always smoke and mirors, it just took people a long time to realize it.not only a all tool no tool box player, lacks any heart as well

Used to stand up for him cause the effort used to be there but this preseason can’t say I’ve noticed any effort, don’t recall any of his patented rushes where he goes wide around the D with dropped shoulder and cuts to the net, just seems to float out there. Maybe the preseason has just been too unorganized and he will look better in real games but that’s not where the smart money is at this point.Looks totally cooked , he can't score anymore , shoots wide almost every shot, feel bad for the guy , he needs to only be allowed to shoot low/shoot for the pads , change his game up , the dream is over
I like this player , being able to generate a high danger shot after his power donkey move is his whole thing , he's great at it , nowadays without a shot he's just a donkey out there , he's missing the net at an alarming rate , last season was crazy and it's not looking great again so farUsed to stand up for him cause the effort used to be there but this preseason can’t say I’ve noticed any effort, don’t recall any of his patented rushes where he goes wide around the D with dropped shoulder and cuts to the net, just seems to float out there.

Anderson usually looks better in pre-season then during the season. It was the case last year and how he ended up on the 1st line to start the season again. This year, he only looked good for a few shifts against Toronto.Used to stand up for him cause the effort used to be there but this preseason can’t say I’ve noticed any effort, don’t recall any of his patented rushes where he goes wide around the D with dropped shoulder and cuts to the net, just seems to float out there.

Let's hope they sit down with this guy, and tell him he can be an effective role player, on the 3-4th lines................and that's it. Bang and crash, score a few and protect your team mates......that's the best we can expect really.What a waste of size and speed !
