Andersson produced a power-play assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson has three points over his last five games, including a pair of power-play assists. His lack of production with the man advantage has played a large role in his down season. The 27-year-old defenseman is at 35 points (eight on the power play), 143 shots on net, 164 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 69 appearances, though he remains in a top-four role with significant minutes.

Andersson notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson has two points over his last four games, matching his output from the prior 12 contests. The 27-year-old helped out on a Jonathan Huberdeau marker in the first period. Andersson has endured a down year, logging 34 points (seven on the power play), 139 shots on net, 162 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 68 appearances. He's still on the second power-play unit, but the Flames have used Daniil Miromanov on the first unit since they acquired him from the Golden Knights in the Noah Hanifin trade.

Andersson scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson snapped a seven-game point drought with his second-period tally. The 27-year-old hasn't helped fill the void in blue-line production created when Noah Hanifin was traded to the Golden Knights. Andersson is at eight goals, 33 points, 131 shots on net, 153 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 65 appearances this season. The 27-year-old should continue to see top-four minutes, but expectations for his offense down the stretch should be tempered.

Andersson notched an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson's offense is coming back around -- he has four helpers, including one on the power play, over his last six games. The defenseman endured a seven-game drought prior to his recent bounce-back. Overall, he's produced 32 points, 123 shots on net, 133 blocked shots, 41 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 57 contests in a top-four role.

Andersson logged a power-play assist and six PIM in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson has three helpers over his last three games after snapping a seven-game dry spell. The defenseman helped out on the second of Noah Hanifin's tallies in this contest. Andersson is at 31 points, 126 blocked shots, 118 shots on net, 41 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 54 outings. He's a little behind his usual pace on offense, but he continues to play in a top-four role.

Andersson added two assists in Monday's 6-3 win over Winnipeg.
EDGE Analysis
Those apples snap a seven-game stretch without a point for the defender. While the lack of points has been disappointing, he continues to play well defensively and eat up big minutes for the Flames, consistently playing over 21 minutes per game. Perhaps Monday's assists can be a launching pad for getting him involved in the offense again. In the nine games prior to that slump, Andersson had one goals and seven points.

Andersson notched an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson has five helpers over his last six games. The 27-year-old kept his offense warm by assisting on a Connor Zary tally in this contest. Andersson is up to 28 points, 102 shots on net, 110 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 44 appearances this season. He should continue to put up solid offense in a top-four role.
