Rotowire
Engvall notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Lightning.
Engvall set up a Ryan Pulock tally in the second period. This was Engvall's second point in as many games to begin February after he was limited to one goal over nine outings in January. The 27-year-old has resumed his second-line role after an upper-body injury cost him four contests last month. He's at 16 points, 75 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 45 appearances, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect much out of the Swede.

Islanders' Pierre Engvall: Sets up goal in narrow loss
Rotowire
Engvall earned a primary assist in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Devils.
The Islanders signed Engvall to a seven-year, $21 million deal this past summer, including a modified no-trade clause for the entire duration of the contract. It's probably not breaking the bank from a monetary standpoint, and the Isles clearly have big plans for Engvall in order to justify securing his services through the 2029-30 campaign. Last year, he registered 17 goals and 13 assists through 78 games between the Maple Leafs and Islanders.

Rotowire

Engvall was not able to play in Saturday's contest against Calgary as a result of the one-game ban. However, he will be eligible to return Tuesday versus Anaheim.

Engvall has four goals, seven points, 44 shots on net and 28 hits in 27 games this season.
