9. Pierre Engvall

Pierre Engvall is a left winger whom the Toronto Maple Leafs drafted (LW, 7th Round, 188th Overall in 2014).

Engvall is 23 and was ranked eight on our 2018 list.

Engvall went mostly under the radar in the first few seasons after he was drafted, however he stepped up his game in a big way last season and put up 20 points in 31 games for HV71 of the SHL.

He followed that up by putting up eight points in nine AHL games. This season, he’s slowed down his pace a bit after a hot start where he currently has 13 points in 25 games.

Engvall has good size at 6’4 and is also a great skater, which is a huge asset to bigger players. He could potentially see an NHL call up in the future if he keeps improving his game.

Engvall probably tops out as a fourth liner in the NHL, and while that might not sound like much, everyone on this list is a potential NHL player, and that is what makes the Leafs farm system so good.
