"I got to play with good players" - Pierre Engvall
While it is clear that Engvall got to play with better players, calling them good insinuates that his linemates in Toronto were mediocre or even bad players.
Engvall's Committment To The Islanders
This past offseason, Engvall inked a 7-year deal with the Islanders carrying an AAV of $3 million.
It seems like he will continue to get opportunities with the Islanders and the Islanders are happy with his style of play wanting to keep him around till the 2030s.
