Lias Andersson is in Sweden wondering where his hockey future lies. Since the moment they sent Lias Andersson down earlier this season, the path forward for the young center didn’t seem like it would be on Broadway. It wasn’t long after that demotion that I heard the Rangers and Oilers were discussing a trade involving their own disgruntled first rounder Jesse Puljujarvi.
Rangers believe Andersson has high value
It wasn’t long too after that my report was confirmed, but Oilers GM, Ken Holland didn’t feel Andersson was worth the one for one swap. Today, I have learned through a trusted source that Edmonton wasn’t the only Alberta team talking trade with the Rangers.
