Prospect Info: Adam Engstrom

[Adam Michaels]

He's from Djurgardens not Rogle, eliteprospects has a rumor that he will be traded to Rogle but it hasn't happened yet.

Elite Prospects has him at Rogle next year.

Edit: at the bottom of their page in the Transactions section, they say it's a Rumor. But they still have him listed at Rogle for next year.

Jarmo takes Jordan Dumais a few picks later. The Fin take the Québec guy, and our geniuses follow Rockstrom once again over our two impotent Qubec scouts, Audette and Boisvert.

Bergevin or HuGo, the same thing, Cedric Guindon, the late rounds guy from Québec to shut up the journalists. The guy to pick was Dumais. You won't hit a Joshua Roy every year at #150.

Dumais will be lucky to keep up with play in the AHL

That's assuming he doesn't improve his skating. Not much else holding him back from making the NHL to be honest. The risk is worth the reward at 92 IMO.

I don't know anything about Engstrom though, so we'll see!

He will go to Rogle:

 

[WeThreeKings]

The numbers are pretty good but he wasn't on my radar.

Gonna have to find more out about him.

 

[Sam de Mtl]

Right underneath Odelius on his team in scoring is good company. Quite a bit bigger too. I wonder how his skating is. Seems like an interesting prospect.

 

[Vachon23]

Don't know him, but he seem interesting

man that J20 team for Djurgardens yikes.

He was an auto draft in last mock. Seems more like a defensive D, but we'll see.

Bobrov seems to think he's got offense

From the sounds of it his offensive skills are pretty average. He hasn't really been an offensive D at any level, but he plays a good enough defensive game.

The Hockey Writers did a profile on him.

Never a fan of these off the board picks. Have rarely seen these ever workout. It's one thing if it's an older player with good numbers but these types I don't know. We are just about to let go Vejdemo so maybe his replacement.

Many thought Romanov was an off the board pick. The Engstrom pick was in crap shoot territory so I’m trusting the folks who kept an eye on him saw something good in him.

Hockey Prospect has a good write up on him as well. Good size, competes, decent skater, some offensive upside. Playing for a different team next year and HP thinks he’ll have better opportunity for offensive role.

 

[Beer and Chips]

He is big

 

[montreal]

why is it yikes?

because they are on fire this draft. That organization is clearly doing something right.

 

[emptyNedder]

Wanted to stop by and say Engstrom was a solid pick in the 3rd round. I have developed a model that identifies undervalued D (basically outside the top 50). Engstrom and Jake Furlong were the two standouts in this draft (Frederick Brunet also scored well as an over-ager).

Engstrom scored well because his statistics indicate he is positionally very sound and contributed offensively. His strong playoffs confirmed what the numbers from the regular season indicated. The few scouting reports I have read (Black Book, The Hockey Writers) also confirmed the model.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Can't find any footage of him rn

You can probably spot him on Djurgardens footage for the other 4 players that were also drafted this year from the team.

Good skater. I honestly don't think this group would take a poor skater.

He was my auto pick for Pittsburgh so thanks to you and I, I'm a prophet and a credible talent scout.

MTL Swedish draft picks seems cursed so, we'll see if anything comes of it.

 

[WeThreeKings]

found one!

 

[NotProkofievian]

Bobrov seems to think he's got offense

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that taking this guy ahead of Lindgren was a bad choice. Hell, even ahead of Forsmark. Seems like the work of Christer.

 

[Beendair Donedat]

Is he related to Craig Ludwig?

Yeah, Lindgren was a no brainer there. I'm gonna keep an eye here though, 'cause it would be nice if they just saw something no one else did here.
