Andersson notched an assist, three blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson helped out on defense partner Noah Hanifin's second-period tally. It's been a tough November for Andersson, who has just three assists in 11 games this month. He's up to nine helpers, 28 shots on net, 29 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-12 rating in 19 contests overall, but the lack of consistency on offense limits his appeal in fantasy despite solid non-scoring numbers.

Andersson notched an assist and two hits in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson helped out on an Elias Lindholm goal in the second period. That Swedish connection helped Andersson snap his season-worst four-game point drought. The defenseman is up to eight helpers, 21 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating in a top-four role -- fantasy managers will hope he starts to contribute more regularly on offense again.

Andersson posted a power-play assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson helped out on Matthew Tkachuk's goal in the second period. With seven assists (five on the power play) and a plus-9 rating in 10 games, Andersson is off to an impressive pace on offense. He hasn't been a huge physical presence with 12 blocked shots, four PIM and just a single hit, but he'll remain a solid blueliner in fantasy if he can continue to pile up points.

Andersson notched two assists and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson set up Sean Monahan's power-play goal in the second period, and he also helped out on Mikael Backlund's empty-netter in the third. This was Andersson's first multi-point game of the year, and he's up to six assists, a plus-10 rating, 10 blocked shots and eight shots on goal in eight contests. His role as the power-play quarterback for the Flames should keep the Swede involved on offense -- four of his helpers have come with the man advantage.

Andersson posted a power-play assist and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson saw a shot attempt tipped in by Elias Lindholm at 12:10 of the first period to give the Flames a 3-0 lead. The 25-year-old Andersson has produced four helpers through six games, three of which have come on the power play. The Swede has added seven shots on net, five blocked shots and a plus-7 rating in a prominent top-four role.

Andersson posted a power-play assist and went plus-2 in Monday's 5-1 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson set up Andrew Mangiapane with five seconds left in the third period. The 24-year-old Andersson has started off steady this year with three helpers (two on the power play), seven shots on net, five blocked shots, a plus-5 rating and four PIM through five contests. With a top-pairing role, the Swede should have a good chance to eclipse his career-high point totals both overall (22 in 2019-20) and on the power play (six in 2020-21).

Andersson posted an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson has notched a helper in each of the Flames' two games so far. The Swede has added four shots, three blocks and a plus-1 rating while logging top-pairing minutes. He's got breakout potential this year as a solid two-way defenseman, and a boost in power-play time should help his scoring pace.

Andersson was assessed a $5,000 fine for roughing the Oilers' Kailer Yamamoto on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson appeared to headbutt Yamamoto in a first-period, post-whistle scrum. He received two minor penalties on the play (one for roughing, one for elbowing).

Andersson notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and four PIM in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson's PIM came after he scuffled with Oilers winger Kailer Yamamoto in the first period. The Swedish blueliner also helped out on Elias Lindholm's third-period tally. With Mark Giordano now in Seattle, Andersson is set to ascend to a top-pairing role full-time in 2021-22. The 24-year-old had 21 points, 68 blocked shots and 96 shots on net in 56 outings last year, but an increased role on the power play should lead to a bump in offense in his fourth full NHL campaign.

Andersson scored a goal in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson converted on a feed from Johnny Gaudreau just 3:36 into the game, tying the score at 1-1. The 24-year-old Andersson is up to 21 points in 53 contests, just one point shy of his output in 70 games last year. The Swede has added 89 shots on net, 61 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating this season.
