The 26-year-old played in 78 games for the Toronto Maple Leafs last season, scoring 15 goals and registering 35 points.

Engvall was selected with the 188th pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft by the Maple Leafs, but did not debut with the team until the 2019–20 season. Last season was Engvall’s most complete yet, as he was able to bring his points-per-game ratio close to a career high while recording a career-high plus-minus rating of plus-13. In his 17 career playoff games, Engvall recorded just four points, all assists.

He played last season on a two-year, $2.5 million contract.

The Swede has 30 goals and 62 points in 168 career NHL games.
