2025 Fantasy Outlook
Engvall had a tough year with just eight goals and seven assists in 62 games in 2024-25. The 29-year-old saw a nearly four-minute decrease in average ice time from 2023-24 to 2024-25 and almost a complete elimination of his power-play time. The 6-foot-5 winger's 11:49 of average ice time from this past season is a major concern for his outlook moving forward. If that minimal amount of playing time holds, the 15-20 point range might be the new norm for Engvall, who doesn't offer much shot blocking or physical acumen to the table. Read Past Outlooks

Out 2-3 weeks
Engvall will be sidelined for 2-3 weeks while recovering from offseason hip surgery, the Isles announced Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Based on Engvall's recovery timeline, he should still be ready for Opening Night against the Penguins on Oct. 9, but he will need to avoid any setbacks. With the 29-year-old limited to just 62 regular-season tilts last year, he failed to reach the 10-goal mark for the first time since the COVID-shortened 2020-21 season. It also didn't help that Engvall ended the campaign mired in a nine-game goal drought. Even if he can stay healthy this season, the Swede will be hard-pressed to offer more than mid-range fantasy value.

2020
While his $3 million cap hit isn't absurd, Engvall was an occasional healthy scratch in 2023-24. That didn't stop him from posting 28 points in 74 regular-season contests, but it was the first time in three years he missed the 30-point mark. Entering his age-28 season, it's clear that Engvall is a steady middle-six winger with speed to burn, but that doesn't make him a fantasy asset. In addition to his lackluster offense, Engvall typically won't add much in the way of physicality, and he rarely sees much more than second-unit minutes on the power play. Throw in the Islanders' tendency for ultra-defensive hockey, and you can find depth forwards with far more upside in the late rounds of fantasy drafts.
