Committee Quotes:
“29 seasons played, 1300 points, 4 Dar trophies, and 2 Cups. I'm surprised he's only a 2-time All-Star, but it doesn't matter anyway. Kvalheim was "the" power forward for many years, collecting over 3800 hits, and an easy decision for first ballot hall of fame.”

“Had 2 All-SHL nominations, but he won the Dar 4 times (every time he was nominated), having the most awards won out of any forward eligible, 2 cups, and just shy of 1300 points in a very long twenty-nine-season career. He was the prime example of a power forward for many seasons.”

“I would say it's kind of wild that he only had two All-SHL nods, but his 4 award wins are for the Jeff Dar, so that kind of explains it all on its own. Despite two-way forwards being woefully underappreciated, Andreas spent a whopping 29 seasons in the SHL, where he put his skillset to VERY good use on special teams units. Opposing centers likely sighed hopelessly when they had to square up against him in the faceoff circle, as he maintained a FO% right up there with top current Hall of Famers who all played significantly fewer seasons.”
