Kind of like Andrew Ference was when the Flames traded him for Brad Stuart.

When I watched Vegas, he seemed very good.
He's no offensive dynamo, nor is he a big hitter. But he's just very well rounded, a smooth skater, has a good pass, and he has great hockey IQ. He knows how to shed forecheckers.
I was a little surprised Vegas wanted Andersson - he didn't seem to fit a need for them IMO. Sometimes I think Vegas just falls into the mindset of wanting the player that is topping the market. Marner, Eichel, Stone, Pietrangelo, etc.
