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.

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

He 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.
I believe the only European prospects currently in the system that have been drafted in the CHL Import Draft are Slaf (Erie), Mesar (Kitchener) & Dichow (Sudbury).
Dichow was even supposed to come play here in 2019-20, but the OHL cancelled the whole season. So he ended up going back to Europe. And we can't say it wasn't the right move as he had a great year and is now in the SHL.
All other European prospects: Kapanen, Engstrom, Nurmi, Gordin, and Kostenko were never drafted in the CHL.
We already have Sobolev playing in Windsor.
That's some pretty solid footwork to find a lane and rip it!
Really really nice. Really excited to see his development. I mean look how easily, effortless and quite fast he reaches the spot he is when he shoots....
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.
Found out today that he was away for an U20 4-nations tournament this week.
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.
Nice.
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.
Looking forward to reading @Goldenhands report.
Good catch. I was looking on your site just yesterday to see if he'd gotten injured or something.
The boxcore says he played on Thursday, two shots on net : Leijonat Tulospalvelu
I think they made a mistake on Flashscore. They had an L. Engstrom. I thought it was another player with the same family name.
Just wondering if you were going to follow that train of thought and comment further...
Something went wrong with the zoom of the recording and the game was barely watchable, so players impossible to assess.
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 road
