Razzy’s Yuletide Log

  1. Per his draft report
    Rasmus Andersson of Malmo, Sweden decided to make the trip to North America to play for the OHL’s Barrie Colts. In his first OHL season, he lead the Colts in points by a defenseman (64). As is typical with many Swedish defensemen, Andersson skates extraordinarily well and displays exceptional lateral movement. For a 6’0″ blueliner, he doesn’t get pushed around easily – probably because he’s a bulky 209 lbs. From the backend, he sees the open ice and gives quick passes to move the puck to his forwards. Andersson lays into every shot he takes with immense power, but he’s a much better set-up man than goal scorer. Lastly his most underrated skill is his ability to be patient and let a play develop, patience like sitting in front of a warm fire for 3+ hours.
