I’d bet on him.

Lots of players score a ton in the AHL
I'm not making a conclusion, I am saying that increases the risk that he might not be the player we think and thus I wouldn't give him a long term contract yet. I have no problem with gambling on Andersson, if Valimaki has a strong year, I'd be willing to gamble on him too. Mangiapane has enough flaws in his game and doesn't project to be a star, so I wouldn't take the risk, that's how you get a Viktor Rask contract
