Andersson was designated for the league's COVID-19 protocols Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
At this point, with seven more players landing in the NHL's protocols, the Flames probably shouldn't be expected to play versus the Blue Jackets on Saturday. If Andersson is asymptomatic and vaccinated, he will need to submit two negative tests 24 hours apart before returning to action, though the Flames as a team have already had several games canceled and won't play until at least Dec. 21.
