As the summer winds down, it looks like Rasmus Andersson is heating up as a top trade target for GM Stan Bowman and the Edmonton Oilers. With Philip Broberg heading to the St. Louis Blues, the Oilers are on the hunt for a second-pairing right defenseman, which makes this fantasy a potential reality. Andersson makes just $4.5 million over the next two years. He'd slot in nicely on the right side without straining the Oilers' cap. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/brendenescott/status/1823882339455525195'> </a></blockquote></div> However, it's worth noting that the Flames, as most teams at this stage of the Summer, seem ready to stick with their current roster as they gear up for the new season. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/nhlflame/status/1825895624174190701'> </a></blockquote></div> The 27 year-old is a solid two-way defenseman, and had 39 points in 78 games with the Flames last year.
