Lias Andersson spoke to reporter Johan Rylander of the Gothenburg Post and revealed more about his experiences with the New York Rangers and the issues that resulted in his abandoning his career in North America.
While there had been suggestions of bullying and other problems with the organization, the interview reveals that it was more of a case of loneliness and a struggle to live up to expectations. Andersson indicated that he was injured and dealing with the injury and his challenges on the ice resulted in him not enjoying hockey any more. That’s what led to his sudden departure from Hartford.
