I'm more confidence in him to make NHL and have impact than Norlinder.
I really like his tools, that's a very solid pick by Habs.

In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord ServerHe wasn't. Swedish prospects just about never get drafted in the CHL, it's seen as a wasted pick unless the word came out that the player specifically plans to play in North America.Was Engstrom drafted in the CHL import draft by any chance?

He's got a long stick!I really like his skillset. Looks like a solid pick by Habs!
Found out today that he was away for an U20 4-nations tournament this week.I've seen that Engstrom hasn't been in the lineup the past 2 times with the SHL club, not that I expected him to make the team as they have been one of the top teams in the SHL (along with Frolunda). Will be interesting to see what happens with him since his contract in Sweden ends in April, if he has a strong year will they want him to be Laval bound in '23-'24 or see him get some time in the SHL first since they have 4 years to sign him and Laval is likely going to be very crowded on the blueline.
Started as the 7th defenseman and ended up on the 2nd pairing today against the Finns, will comment after watching that game but I liked the little I saw from this kid so far.Found out today that he was away for an U20 4-nations tournament this week.

Good catch. I was looking on your site just yesterday to see if he'd gotten injured or something.Found out today that he was away for an U20 4-nations tournament this week.
The boxcore says he played on Thursday, two shots on net : Leijonat TulospalveluNice.
I saw he only played yesterday and today (they also played on Thursday, but he wasn't in the line-up for that). Yesterday, Sweden beat Slovakia 11-1 and Engstrom had 1 assist. Today, Sweden beat Finland 3-2, no points for Engstrom.

Just wondering if you were going to follow that train of thought and comment further...Started as the 7th defenseman and ended up on the 2nd pairing today against the Finns, will comment after watching that game but I liked the little I saw from this kid so far.
Something went wrong with the zoom of the recording and the game was barely watchable, so players impossible to assess.Just wondering if you were going to follow that train of thought and comment further...
I'm looking forward to the next opportunity to see him play... late climbing, under the radar kind of pick that hopefully could pay dividends down the roadSomething went wrong with the zoom of the recording and the game was barely watchable, so players impossible to assess.
