Some curious information has just emerged about a forward from the Montreal Canadiens organization, as according to the excellent Patrik Bexell, Lias Andersson could surprise everyone and leave for Europe.
We're talking about a 7th overall pick (1st round) in 2017, who is one of the best players of the Laval Rocket (34 points in 41 games including 17 goals) who could suddenly leave the CH organization to play in Sweden.
Andersson, 25 years old, had gathered 59 points in 67 games, including 31 goals in the American Hockey League. He is clearly a very dominant player in the AHL, but in the NHL, we're talking about 17 career points (7 goals).
