Well, I have had to throw in the towel on this effort for now. While I did
If someone figures out if/how a simple SVGdraw (see z-shaped underline) animation can be done in Angular2 I would be very keen to hear.
Till then I fear I am going to have to move on and leave out the animations for now. Thanks for all the help.
While it may not look like much, below is my final z-shaped sketchy underline. I was pretty happy with it. Ultimately I would like to control the SVG color and point locations via bindings and I expect the integration I am looking to achieve with Angular2 will need to wait for now.

Again many thanks and best of luck till then,
Steve
