It’s official, Lias Andersson has been put on loan to HV71 of the SHL. This is great news for both Lias and the Rangers as it can only build on Andersson’s trade value. For those of you that follow our reporting, we noted on January 7th that Andersson’s visit to Sweden was likely to be a long one. We even stated that it would likely come down to Frolunda or HV71.
Reported Interest
HV71 interest was there as soon as Andersson left the Wolf Pack and demanded a trade.
Johan Hult (HV71 manager) says that he has had contact with Andersson during the fall, including when he was in New York and met both Andersson and another former HV profile in Jesper Fast.
