Flames' Rasmus Andersson: Ties game on power play
Rasmus Andersson scored a power-play goal on two shots, blocked three shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout win over the Islanders.Andersson tied the contest at 8:17 of the third period, ending his seven-game point drought with the goal.

Overall, he has five goals, 12 points, 36 shots on net, 62 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 19 appearances.

Flames' Rasmus Andersson: Credited with helper
Rasmus Andersson notched an assist, three shots on goal, five blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-0 win over the Devils.Andersson had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two games, but he didn't let that turn into an extended slump. He received credit for the secondary helper on Blake Coleman's opening goal at 14:26 of the third period. Through 11 outings, Andersson has four goals, seven assists, 38 blocked shots, 19 shots on net and a plus-4 rating. It's still to be seen if this is a bounce-back season or just a hot start for the 28-year-old blueliner, giving fantasy managers a tough decision between riding his well-rounded production or selling high.

Flames' Rasmus Andersson: One of each in win
Rasmus Andersson scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Penguins.Andersson already has three multi-point efforts this season. He opened the scoring in the first period and then assisted on Nazem Kadri's game-tying goal in the final minute of regulation. Through six contests, Andersson has racked up three goals, five helpers, nine shots on net, 23 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating.
