must mean they liked what they saw. is he confirmed to be in the main camp, or do we not know yet?

should he get a good look this year or send him to Frolunda by default for more seasoning

Excellent...maybe we can catch a break and have a first year player be a part of the rotation.

Toronto is sending Liljegren to the AHL to have him mature and develop there, and have more control over him. I could see the Rangers do that as well.

If he does well in camp give him the 9 games to see what he can do. You never know...

This won't stop some people from flipping out but this is pretty much standard operating procedure.

You are absolutely correct. However, if the team doesn't take any additional steps to address the center depth between now and camp (a big if) then I would think they'll give the kid a serious shot to win a spot. However I said this before he was signed, so as you said, nothing really changed here.

Signing your first round pick quickly is pretty standard these days.

Barring an absolute major miss, most teams are going to at least give them three years in their system.

Personally, I think Andersson might surprise people with how well he does in camp. The kid really isn't far off from being able to play in the NHL, mainly because his game doesn't only revolve around being a high scoring forward.

He's also Jesper Fast's size. He has NHL size and strength from what they say.

Really liked the video, sounds like a leader on the ice. Very good English as well. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up sticking around after camp..

I don't think that applies as he's not in the CHL.

ELC slides if he players fewer than 10 games and is on the team for fewer than 50 games, it doesn't count as an accrued season. Because he has not played in the CHL, he can be sent to the AHL, or sent back to Sweden

I think he end's up a little bigger than Fast, maybe closer to Lindberg in height and frame.

He's never going to be a monster, but I think this kid has a chance to have a very nice 10-15 year career.
