Pierre Engvall - NHL News & Rumors

Headed to waivers Engvall was placed on waivers by the Islanders on Saturday.

Impact While Engvall entered training camp healthy and with a chance to re-earn his spot in the Islanders' bottom six, he will instead open the season in the AHL if he clears waivers. The 30-year-old winger missed the entirety of the 2025-26 season with an ankle injury. He has primarily played at the NHL level since the 2019-20 season, making him an experienced option for the freshly-relocated AHL Hamilton to open the 2026-27 campaign, given that he goes unclaimed.

Officially out for season Engvall (ankle) will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 campaign, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com.

Impact General manager Mathieu Darche confirmed that Engvall will miss the rest of the campaign due to the ankle surgery he had in late October. While he's been shut down for 2025-26, he was spotted skating with Alexander Romanov and Semyon Valamov on Tuesday morning, which is a big step in his recovery. Engvall will look ahead to next season after missing the entirety of a campaign for the first time in his six-year NHL career.

Lands on long-term IR Engvall (ankle) was placed on long-term injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Engvall was already expected to miss the rest of the 2025-26 campaign, so his designation for long-term injured reserve shouldn't come as a surprise. Assuming the winger won't be an option for a potential playoff run, the Isles can get the full $3 million in cap savings from Engvall's cap hit.
