60 for Lias Andersson - nice

Interesting move

 

[Lt Dan]

Lias Andersson? Crap I wanted a goalie

 

[SFKingshomer]

Barf...

 

[kingsfan28]

Leas Anderson?

 

[Steve Zissou]

Hopefully Lias Andersson could be our 2020 Kubalik? Where's Andys when you need him?

 

[raswilliam]

former 6th overall pick

 

[AnThGrt]

Value wise I like it.

 

[kingsfan28]

Anderson was a 7th overall pick?

Shhh, don't wake him.

 

[SFKingshomer]

Pretty sure this kid asked to be traded because he didn’t crack the top 9? Seems the opposite of what the Kings like.

Why is it nice? I don't know anything about this guy other than it doesn't look like he has done much as a pro.

Lias Andersson was taken four picks before Gabe Vilardi. Left shot winger. Hey, put him next to Kopitar or Vilardi and see what happens!

 

[crassbonanza]

Absolutely love this trade by Blake, this is the kind of risk you can take when you have so many picks.

Former 7th overall pick in 2017. Wonder why the Rags would give up on him already? Still 21 (turns 22 in October).

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Low risk, high reward! I'm good with it!

 

[Prntscrn]

With his dad working for your organization this could be a good trade, seems he got pretty homesick in NYC

 

[Steve Zissou]

The only thing I remember about Lias.

 

[kovacro]

Lias Andersson is an excellent team player. Never takes a shift off. Also blessed with good hockey sense and plays a strong two-way game. Offensively, Andersson stands out with impressive puck skills, a good shot and fine speed. Has the tools to become a scoring line player, but could also become an excellent role player who always gives 100%. (EP 2017)

So far this admin hasn't made many mistakes in this area, so I will trust their judgment. Shove him in the top 6 and see what happens...
