Now things can change, but I do feel like people undervalue his skill set and what he brings to whatever team is next. His swagger is known league wide and his ability to play 2way responsible D while putting up pretty good points and getting in other teams heads. Add leadership and he’s got more to bring than most people think.
I’m the opposite, I think more people undervalue him significantly.
Rasmus compared to Wallman?? Come on… that’s not even remotely close. Wallman has no heart, no drive, no push back he’s just a bottom 4 plug.
Will Rasmus get you 3rd? No, if people think his value is that high then I agree.
But having “little value” I think stems from undervaluing what you watch every night and not seeing the positives over some of the negatives.
His value was sky high at the deadline last year. I know for certain it hasn’t tanked to nothing now.

Thanks Royle. Can you speak to how strong the returns would have been relative to what I have proposed below? Are these trade returns too high or comparable to what Andersson would have returned at the deadline?
Trade A)
To Detroit: Andersson (50% retained for next season and extended) + 18th overall
To Calgary: Danielson + 13th overall
Trade B)
To Columbus: Andersson (50% retained for next season and extended) + 32nd overall
To Calgary: Sillinger + 14th overall
