Adam Engström’s proficiency on breakouts, both through passes and carries, combined with his fluid edgework and scanning habits, make him a promising puck-moving defenceman with room to add more tools to his game.
In this video scouting report, I look at the Montreal Canadiens’ 92nd overall pick’s production and provide data and footage collected from three of his games for Djurgården’s under-20 team (January 9 vs. Örebro, March 23 vs. Timrå, and the J20 Nationell playoff finals, April 10 vs. Linköping).
Engström is set to join Rögle in the SHL this season, as he is already participating in the pro team’s pre-season matches on the second pair.
