The Montreal Canadiens have called up this prospect from Laval.

The Montreal Canadiens have made a roster move, as they have recalled defenseman Adam Engstrom from their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Laval Rocket. 

Engstrom has played in his first 11 NHL games this season with the Canadiens, where he has recorded zero points, four hits, five blocks, six penalty minutes, and a plus-3 rating. Now, after landing this latest call-up to the Canadiens' roster, he will be looking to make an impact. 

Engstrom has certainly shown promise this season with Laval, as he has had a strong season with the AHL club. In 45 games with Laval this campaign, he has 10 goals, 24 assists, 34 points, and a plus-14 rating. This is after he had five goals, 22 assists, 27 points, and a plus-14 rating in 66 games for the AHL club during this past season. 

Engstrom was selected by the Canadiens with the 92nd overall pick of the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 22-year-old blueliner has the potential to become a solid NHL defenseman as he continues to gain more experience. 

In 111 career AHL games over two seasons, Engstrom has 15 goals, 46 assists, 61 points, and a plus-28 rating.
