New York Rangers forward Lias Andersson has formally asked for a trade, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.

Andersson is no longer with the club, and Rangers general manager Jeff Gorton will use the holiday freeze to assess the trade market, Dreger added.

The 21-year-old has averaged less than 10 minutes per game with the Rangers this season, tallying just one assist in 17 contests.

Andersson is best known for throwing his silver medal into the stands after Sweden lost to Canada at the 2018 World Junior Championship.

New York drafted Andersson seventh overall in 2017.
