Rangers did not do a good job handling his development but I've pretty much lose any respect I had for him with this request.

He's not lighting up Hartford by any means. All we heard when he was drafted was character this, character that. And now his season isn't going great, and he wants out?

Get lost

yeah kinda feel like both sides messed this up. SHould have left him in the SHL for a couple of years after being drafted, but I get the feeling he was also really pushing to come over to the NHL.

ALso feel like the Rangers did not cut him the slack they cut a guy like Howden but Andersson also never responded well to being asked to go down and get minutes in the AHL and force the issue...the last couple of times he was sent down he essentially has been invisible/pouted in the AHL.

I dunno, Rangers might want to take a look at how they're managing these kids...and they are just kids, but it's certainly not a good look

I mean I hate to say I told you so but if you actually were being honest with yourself you could see the first day he stepped foot on the ice in Traverse City that we made a huge mistake. This kid cannot skate whatsoever. Cannot make any plays at any kind of real pace on the small ice. He is allergic to the puck and flat out laughable skating with it on his stick. He was a bust of a pick on day one. I can’t imagine there being much of a market for him. He flat out sucks. He could barely keep up in the AHL.

We got Kravtvsov fleeing and Lias now asking to be traded. Either something is foul internally or the kids today are extra selfish.

We could have done better by him. But seriously, asking for a trade when you can’t even make an NHL roster? That’s some sense of entitlement right there. And might explain why he’s not in the NHL. Does he think he is better than he is? We also dealt with this with Kravtsov - it took getting sent to the KHL minors to get his head right.

The HFD organization has had two top ten picks quit on them in the last what- 2-3 months?

The **** is going on?

Well, one of them came back!
To be honest I still feel like Hartford is a tough location to send these guys to. I'll be frank that NE kinda sucks in the winter.
