Anderson is such a confounding player. He can bring a power game to a degree rarely seen here in at least a generation, maybe more. Doesn't mind the rough going, thrives on it actually. At times he can take over a game, turn it around all by himself. I fear in many ways I (and the team) would miss his game if he were to go.

Yet, at times, he is completely clueless.

That’s why he’s @ $5.5 AAV vs $8M+

Don’t look now but he’s again on pace for 25G

There are about 10–15 players in the NHL who can “deliver” on a nightly basis. Expecting Josh Anderson to be one of those players is totally unrealistic. He was MB’s second or third best trade acquisition while GM.

haha...MB deserved to be fired based on this
 
Petry was a much better trade...not even close

Danault trade was even better -- got a top 6 centre for garbage

Max Domi is useless and Andy is arguably more useful than Petry, i.e., it’s closer than you think. Who did Edmonton draft with the picks they got for Petry?

who cares? and the answer is nobody of any consequence ie we gave up nothing to get a very good top 4 right handed shot d-man

He was sometimes very good. Other times he wasn’t. He’s just as inconsistent as Andy, if not more so, which is even worse for a D, since you only use six. Matheson, however, just flat out sucks.

Sorry dude. I don't think he sucks at all -- you should trust Kent on this one. Let's revisit at the end of the year.

Yeah, I don't get the Matheson hate. He's far from perfect, but I think he's pretty good. Great skater with decent offensive skills and average defensively.

He'd be a fine 2nd pairing guy.

That's why I can't watch him. He always leaves me wanting to see more. All the tools except the most important one.

He is still getting back to it after missing a lot.

Here's the issue, he's nowhere near a top pairing guy. Wasn't in Florida, wasn't in Pittsburgh and isn't in Montreal.

Slot him at #4 and you'll see his worth.
