How is Niclas Andersen doing?

Post by pekkasteele »

Is there a chance he gets called up? Is he just adjusting to the NA game or is he not good enough?

saw him play live yesterday, he looked ok. Didn't stand out, which can be a good thing for a defenseman, too.

I wounder why we ever made this signing, he had a fairly good camp, have some ok stats, I remember he lead the team in +/- for a while, but he can't even get a call up to be tasted at NHL level?

With this and the Plots treatment, we will never ever again get a free agent from Europe to sign with us.

If they are all like Plotnikov then I am fine with not being able to sign any of them.
