Baer. Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Never really could secure a full time position in the NHL... Would be surprised if he stays in n/a after his contract expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 26, good size and a cheap contract, but not really enough production to be that useful either. Had good numbers 2-3 years ago, but really tailed off since. Maybe a team takes a chance that a change of scenery will do him good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It seems that there's a lot of players that Detroit waives that end up in Europe. Andersson may be yet another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z Hockey Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Looked like he was becoming an effective 3rd/4th liner a few seasons ago, got scratched a lot, Detroit was then and still is crammed with young players fighting for spots, maybe a new team will bring out his game again. I'd take a flyer on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been under-utilized the past season and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
