And if Andersson turns out to be a similar hockey player, or even half the player, that's cool too.

This exactly. I heard an interview with Patrick O'Sullivan about one year ago (maybe it was his Players Tribute) and he mentioned Doughty in it when he was discussed about training all the time. I think his comment was along the line about how everyone was wondering how this out of shape kid could be picked so high, then they hit the ice and he was the best player on it.
I don't think these high level athletes "out of shape" is the same as us normal people "out of shape"
