  • 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 was behind a lot of talent in sweden, its good to see that kind of pick. With the skating its always a good gamble, I wish I scouted him more.

Yeah, I didn't really see much of him to have an opinion.

I like what I've seen so far this year. Certainly worth the gamble as it stands.
 
Strange how he doesn't seem to be 6'2', 200lbs. Either because of how he skates...or just because how agile he is.

He's the new management first WTF pick....and yet..so far....it's looking good.

I know you're a goalie guy and you'll roast me for it, but right handed catching goalies aren't worth the draft pick, or following.

Fun fact - I learned to play both ways cause I hated using a goalie stick when I was younger and had two different gloves/blocker sets from yard sales.

Haven't really played a full right set-up in over 10 years but probably should since I shoot right, too late to change back now.

I did learn to play with both hands, too.

However, last time I tried full right I ended up scooping the ball into my own net, so I stopped. It's hard to let that ridicule down

I'm guessing management or at least the analytics team saw value in Engstrom. I have created a model that identifies undervalued D prospects that are outside the consensus first round. Engstrom was one of two D this past draft (Jake Furlong was the other) who the model really liked. I would be surprised if a few NHL teams don't have models that liked Engstrom.
