Canadiens Call Up Adam Engstrom, Eyeing Potential NHL Debut

Montreal Canadiens defenseman prospect Adam Engstrom, a 2022 third-round pick, has been called up for the team's western road trip, signaling a potential NHL debut. Engstrom has been exceptional with the Laval Rocket, recently tallying five assists in a single game and accumulating 14 points in 18 AHL games. With Kaiden Guhle injured, the 20-year-old's offensive upside and sound defensive play could earn him a spot if current defensemen Arber Xhekaj or Jayden Struble struggle.
