I don't think Andersson would end up being a first pairing D-man on a contending team if that's where we trade him. That is not drunk talk, it's the reality of the wealth that a contending team has in players. It's why they'll pay a premium for a 1st line forward from a non playoff team and make them a second line player on their playoff run. The chances of Andersson going to a contender and being a top line D-man is pretty small, imo. That's not a knock on him at all, btw.
