Rasmus Andersson is a defenseman who the Toronto Maple Leafs have been showcasing some interest in, although trade conversations have seemingly stalled.

Rasmus Andersson on trade rumors
Essentially, the defenseman spoke to a Swedish publication, where he revealed that he hasn't even spoken to the team in six weeks.
Furthermore, the Flames asked him to provide a list of teams he would want to be traded to. However, he has yet to do that.
I have not given Calgary a team; I haven't actually spoken to Calgary since they made the request, which was a month and a half ago
Overall, this is a pretty bizarre situation, and you cannot help but wonder what the defenseman and the Flames are waiting for right now.
It doesn't seem like Andersson even wants to be traded, but given the lack of communication, you cannot help but feel as though the relationship is in tatters.
Fans of the Flames are a bit upset these days, especially when you consider the franchise's lack of direction or plan.
If the team doesn't find itself in the playoffs next season, then we can only imagine what kind of consequences may follow.
