More like a 2026 protected 1st + B prospect or a guy like Berggren.
CBJ I still think there is merit in Sillinger + 2026 protected 1st.
But Andersson also wants to win. So not sure he signs with either team.
So perhaps a team that flames out in the first round, emerges as a candidate.

Those do see like good fits and reasonable returns though.
The question will be the urgency to trade him and/or the urgency of the other teams to acquire him. Conroy has generally shown patience with upcoming UFAs when it comes to trading them. My guess is that he does trade Andersson but it will take a pressure to get a team to pay the asking price. The draft is sometimes that but it’s doubtful as that is when picks at their highest value while roster players are at their “lowest” value. I think it will take either a team having a rough start or the trade deadline to get a team to pay up.
