Scouting report.

An undersized offense-minded defenseman that plays a complete 200-foot game. Skates well has a great shot and isn’t afraid to play physically. Excellent on breakouts and makes quick decisions with the puck in the defensive zone. Can play in any situation.


Observations​

October 2025 – It was an impressive season for Andrae, though he has been (and may continue to be) a victim of being on the wrong roster. With the Flyers having numerous puck-moving defensemen competing for ice time and a roster spot, and with several diminutive young players already on the roster, Andrae was frequently sent to the AHL due to his exemption from waivers. In the end, he played 42 games with the Flyers, getting sheltered minutes and second-unit PP time. He is a hard-working player with skills that are arguably the best on the blue line for Philadelphia. His possession metrics are through the roof – he was second on the team in Corsi-for relative%. ...

I'm sorry but why did we just trade Woll for a 3rd stringer with a career sv% of .884?
Nice gamble on Andrae, 85th overall is a decent pick. Ersson no idea what to do with him.

Obviously Woll’s value was low coming off a bad season and horrible showing for the US. But assuming his value was higher than Stolarz either way. And I feel more comfortable keeping Stolarz as the vet option behind Hildeby/AA

Ersson is just a throw in. I wouldn't really focus on him. He might not even stick around since he's a RFA, but maybe he sticks around as a 3rd/4th stringer.

This is basically Woll and Benoit for Andrae and a 3rd.
 
Woll is the only player with no protection and he’s a bit overrated. Guy can’t even stay healthy.

Anyone who thought we were getting an A plus prospect or a first for Woll is delusional
I never thought he'd have a lot of value, thats why I wanted to keep him. Just waive Stolarz if the best return is a 3rd, a cap dump, and a manlet
