Prospect Info: Adam Engstrom

[Adam Michaels]

Who's the best team Timra or Roggle?

I don't know enough about which team is better, but Timra finished 10 pts ahead of Rogle. Timra had a -4 goal differential and Rogle -16.

However, Timra lost their 3 last games and only won 3 of their last 9. Rogle won their last 3 games and 6 of their last 8. So between the two teams, Rogle is going into this series with more momentum.

Volokhin could be our best prospect when all is said and done.

Was looking at his stats, .927 save %, 20 wins vs 6 losses, on the surface, that’s not bad….he’s got great size too.

So between him, Fowler, Dobes, Primeau, we’re pretty set in goalie prospects!!

Not sure how to rate them 1 to 4 but they all look pretty solid.

Volokhin could be our best prospect when all is said and done.

Love that we have a Russian cyborg in the pipeline. I've been super high on fowler ever since we drafted him but Volohkin has as good a chance to be our #1. Should make for some good competition at the very least

 

[Adam Michaels]

Timra is up 1-0 after 1 period.

Rogle take Game 1. They win 4-1. Engstrom with the 1 assist as posted by @red devil

Adam Engstrom is a gem.

Great work by Habs scouts to drafted that type of potential in 3rd round.

I'm very very confident that he is going to be a really good #3-4 D.

Guhle - Mailloux.
Engstrom - Reinbacher.
Hutson (1st unit PP) - Xhekaj.

That's what I see in the future. Maybe Hutson will play on top 4 with Reinbacher aswell, but Engstrom game is more perfect at 5v5. Even if I believe in Lane Hutson and he will make Habs in another level at PP. Engstrom aswell have high potential.

It's going to be really interesting to see how Hughes plays this hand that is the depth chart of the dcore, and also includes

Notables:
Matheson Bogdan
Struble Barron

Plus depth guys:
Harris Kovacevic
Trudeau

Already this summer KH will have to move one of Barron, Harris, Savard or Kovacevic, unless he wants to go 8 dmen in Montreal, or send Xhekaj to Laval.

Is Engstrom eligible to play in Laval's playoff games if they qualify and he comes over ?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Game 2 of Rogle/Timra is @ 10:15AM ET.

If Rogle win, they move on to the Quarter-Finals and play a Best-of-7 series. Seeing as they're one of the lower seeded teams, they'll face one of best teams.

If they lose, Game 3 is tomorrow.

Yes.

Is there room on the plane with Reinbacher?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Rogle up 3-0 in the 2nd period. No pts for Engstrom so far.

If Rogle holds to win, they eliminate Timra and head to the Quarter-Finals.

 

[Skip Bayless]

Wasn't Rogle dogshit this year? Or am I confusing them with Reinbacher's dogshit team?

Kloten was dogshit. Rogle wasn't having a good season, but they finished strong and went into the playoffs with momentum.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Rogle win 3-2 and sweep Timra 2-0.

Engstrom's arrival will be delayed as Rogle will now go to the Best-of-7 Quarter-Finals series.

Still to be determined who they will face yet and when that series will start.

He is playing an important role on a playoff team in a very good league so I don't think that there should be much urgency to see that end and him come to Laval. I am good with either route unlike Reinbacher's situation where he was on a Mickey Mouse team and getting out of there was clearly the preferable alternative.

 

[montreal]

Rogle has been one of the best organizations in the SHL for the past few years along with clubs like Frolunda but this year they disappointed and barely made the playoffs so the GM was fired. They seem to be one of the best organizations in all of Euro hockey.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Rogle's opponent will be known tomorrow.

Orebro and Lulea are tied 1-1 in their Play-In series and play Game 3 on Monday. If Orebro wins, Rogle will play 2nd seed Vaxjo. If Lulea wins, Rogle will play 1st seed Farjestad.

Is it a given that he comes over? Wouldnt be against having him play another year in Sweden. Theres no rush.

 

[Mrb1p]

Wasn't Rogle dogshit this year? Or am I confusing them with Reinbacher's dogshit team?

Not dog shit, no. But worse than last year, they were the top team in europe.

They lost a lot of players this year Wallander, Edstrom, Kasper, Bischel for a momth and a half and Willander.

I don't know if it's a given. But some of the Habs beat writers have been mentioning Reinbacher and Engstrom as two Euros Habs plan to bring over once their seasons are done.

I'd rather Engstrom come over than play another year in Sweden.

It was mentioned early by Lapointe I think. Engstrom Hutson Reinbacher are all coming.

So there's gonna have to be some movement on the NHL side. Whether its Matheson or Savard. Kovacevic. Harris or Struble.

Barron has to play at the NHL level. You need to give reps to Hutson and Reinbacher Engstrom and Mailloux in the top 4 of the AHL.

Its gonna be problematic to have 4 to 5 high profile defense prospect on the Laval blue line. They need actual ice time.

That's true. Like @WeThreeKings mentioned, they will need to move guys in the off-season. And I'd be really surprised if they don't move anyone.

Norlinder is an RFA with arb rights. Remains to be seen if they qualify him and/or re-sign him or let him walk. They may eventually qualify him even if he goes back to Europe. It would be a loan.

In Laval, I personally don't think they need to bring any vet in on an NHL deal a la Schueneman and Keeper. I'm good bringing back Bisson and Galipeau on AHL deals. They could be the vets that support guys like Reinbacher, Mailloux, Engstrom, and Hutson or any combination of who will be in Laval among them. Trudeau is still a prospect but he will be in his third year pro.

Well said but I think Mailloux starts the season in Montreal. A full off season of hard training convinces me he will be an NHLer next season.
