Andersson was considered a success story until this season. A 23 year old D man having an off year in his third full season when expectations are higher isn't exactly earthshattering. Gio himself had a couple down years at seasons 4-5.
And Andersson, while not being as solid in his own end, did manage to increase his PPG significantly from the previous year, and was the second highest producer on D.
