The 2016 season started out pretty poorly for Rasmus Andersson, who was singled out at the end of development camp for poor conditioning.
By the end of it, he had racked up a solid first professional season, an extended stay with the big club, and an NHL game. He could arguably be considered the Flames’ #1 prospect.
Safe to say that 2016-17 has been a major success for the young Swede.
Brief history
Rasmus has been a force to be reckoned with no matter where he’s been. At 15, he was scoring over two points per game in Sweden’s U16 league, a point per game in the U18 league, and made a few appearances for the U20 team.
