Rangers trade F Andersson to Kings

[October 08, 2020]    The New York Rangers traded center Lias Andersson to the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday for a second-round pick (60th overall) in the 2020 draft, which they used to select forward William Cuylle.

Andersson, 21, was the seventh overall pick in the 2017 draft but has not lived up to the lofty expectations.

He tallied one assist in 17 games in 2019-20, bringing his career totals to three goals and six assists in 66 games.

Cuylle, 18, tallied 22 goals and 20 assists in 62 games with the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League this season.
