The Toronto Maple Leafs drafted Pierre Engvall in the seventh round of the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.
Prior to this season, Engvall barely registered as a prospect of note even though he’d been a fairly reliable player for the Toronto Marlies last year.
This year, he started out strong in the AHL with 16 points in 15 games, which was good enough to earn him a promotion to the Leafs.
Mike Babcock didn’t use him much, dressing him just once. But, once Sheldon Keefe took over, Engvall became a regular for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
