This is what we should be expecting. Yes Andersson was our best defenceman, but he was our best on a BAD team. This is not a Norris player. And don’t forget that we got over 500 games of his prime, a 1st, 2nd, and roster D, for Markus Granlund.
More importantly, the fact this trade happens further commits the Flames to a rebuild. 4 x 1sts and 3 x 2nds in the next 2 years on top of our current cupboards is something to work with.
Anyone who is disappointed- read non-Flames threads and gauge the reaction. I’m fine with this return
