This is a huge loss for the Rocket, who are already off to a poor start to the season.
Andersson had scored seven goals and two assists for a total of nine points in ten games.

It will be interesting to see which players will benefit from a more important place in the line-up with the long-term loss of Andersson.
Jean-François Houle will have some big decisions to make.
