Lias Andersson's tenure with the New York Rangers appears to be over for good.

The seventh overall pick of the 2017 NHL Draft has declined an invitation to join the team for training camp and is opting to remain in his native Sweden, according to the New York Post's Larry Brooks.

Andersson will play the 2020-21 season in Sweden if the Rangers do not trade him and could do so even if he is dealt, depending on the timing of a deal, Brooks added.

The 21-year-old forward reportedly requested a trade in December. The Rangers loaned him to HV71 of the Swedish league in January.

Andersson has tallied nine points in 66 NHL games across three seasons with New York.
