M&G's Top 25 Under 25: T-#14 - Rasmus Andersson

It's easy, almost too easy, to acknowledge Oliver Kylington as the best draft decision the Flames made in June. However, there is evidence to support that Rasmus Andersson might have exceptional upside as a sleeper pick. With all things considered from his first year with Barrie of the OHL, which yielded some fantastic results, he's looking like a good choice thus far.

The Flames made the right decision selecting him as a safe option in the second round, just ahead of countryman Kylington. The emphasis of rebuilding the very shallow prospect pool on the blueline took exceptional leaps forward in June, and now we get to watch him mature over the next couple seasons.
