If engvall does actually go down, they could bury 1.15m but theyâd carry the 1.85m remainder of the cap hit.
Itâs actually 150,000 more in savings than if you sent Wahlstrom down, although you could bury all 1m of his hit.
Interesting times.

I mean it wouldn’t shock me. Roy has been fairly outspoken on his defensive game. I feel slightly bad for Engvall from a fan perspective because his loping skating style makes it look like he’s lazy when he really isn’t, but coaches see more than that.
Probably leaves you with one right hand shot on a LW though.

Bad for the cap but good for the culture as it shows that long-term contracts donât guarantee you a roster spot.

He would definitely clear waivers, so I don’t hate it

Really like the accountability this would show – we are icing the best team we can, not letting contracts have too much influence. But doesnât counter the fact we gave him a 7 year deal in the first place which now might look like one of our worst contacts in recent years which would be saying something

No Hogberg. No Skarik backup or is Sorokin gonna play??

Engvall is not an NHLâer. Another Terrible signing by Lou.
