Does Engstorm has Arby's talent ? just checked, he's only 6 foot.
He is 6'2".......Hockeydb is incorrect.

Habs management already discussed the fact that they really liked his size/skating combination. EP has him at 6'2" 185 lbs which is much more in line with these comments than Hockeydb's listing of 6'0" 167 lbs (likely old measurement)
- Engstrom got a 5 minute major + a 10 minute misconduct for elbowing.

Bangstrom!

Watching him right now, kid is phenomenal in transition, his passing is extremmely sharp and accurate, can hit his teammates' stick from distance in motion. Unlike Norlinder, kid can play physical and clear the front of the net, he is pretty active and combative both defensively and offensively. Good skater, very good mobility, very talended with the puck, active stick without the puck. Frankly, Im really impressed.

Incredible if he really is a hidden gem. Based on his attitude, he's extremely ambitious. Amazing if we have yet another jewel on the blueline. When was the last time we were stacked like that with defensemen prospects? The 1980's, probably.

Norlinder has to get his swagger back. His game isn't a physical one. Ideally it's catching the opposition off guard by darting into the rush or offensive zone as a 4th forward, creating scoring chances, and then darting back in time on D.

Why don't they the 18 yo kids play with players of their age in Sweden ? Why promote them with grown up men ?
