The Montreal Canadiens are undergoing a revolution on the blue line. It is a movement spearheaded by Kaiden Guhle and his three fellow NHL debutants, supported by those who would follow in their footsteps such as Lane Hutson and his extraordinary current NCAA campaign. While Hutson draws the plaudits in North America, another young defender, Adam Engström, has quietly made a name for himself on the rinks of the SHL.
Engström is used to being out of the spotlight. After all, he was overshadowed last season by Jonathan Lekkerimäki, Noah Östlund, and Calle Odelius when playing with Djurgården’s U20 team.
