Red Wings' Andreas Englund: Claimed off waivers
Detroit claimed Englund off waivers from Calgary on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Englund earned three goals, 13 points and 65 PIM in 52 appearances for AHL Milwaukee during the 2025-26 regular season. Due to Jacob Bernard-Docker's (upper body) injury and Simon Edvinsson's contract situation, Englund could begin the 2026-27 campaign in the NHL with the Red Wings.

Flames' Andreas Englund: Lands on waivers Friday
Englund was placed on waivers by the Flames on Friday for the purpose of assignment to AHL Calgary.
Englund joined the Flames on a one-year, two-way contract during the offseason and will begin the regular season with the team's AHL affiliate, assuming he clears waivers. The 30-year-old has a decent amount of experience at the NHL level, but he spent most of last year in the minors, where he recorded three goals, 10 assists and 65 PIM across 52 regular-season appearances with AHL Milwaukee.

Flames' Andreas Englund: Set to join Calgary
Englund signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Flames on Wednesday.
Englund made just three regular-season appearances with Nashville last year after spending a considerable amount of time at the NHL level in the three prior campaigns. Across 52 regular-season games with AHL Milwaukee in 2025-26, he recorded three goals, 10 assists and 65 PIM. Englund will likely have a chance to compete for an NHL roster spot ahead of the 2026-27 campaign, but he could have to settle for a role in which he plays primarily in the minors.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Sent to AHL
Englund was loaned to AHL Milwaukee on Tuesday.
Englund played in three of Nashville's last four games. During that span, he posted two shots on goal, four hits and one blocked shot while failing to earn a point. He has earned two goals, four assists and 44 PIM in 34 AHL appearances this season.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Elevated from minors
Englund was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Monday.
Nicolas Hague is week-to-week due to a lower-body injury, which has resulted in Englund being brought up from the minors. Englund has yet to make an appearance in the NHL in 2025-26, so he might not get into a game unless another Nashville blueliner gets hurt. The 30-year-old has two goals, six points, 44 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 34 appearances with the Admirals this season.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Returned to minors
Englund was reassigned to AHL Milwaukee on Saturday.
After being recalled from the minors, Englund was a healthy scratch in Friday's 7-3 win over Colorado. He hasn't seen any NHL action yet during the 2025-26 campaign. Englund has two goals, four assists and 44 PIM in 30 AHL outings this season.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Called up Friday
Englund was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Friday.
Englund's promotion to the NHL roster comes as Adam Wilsby (lower body) and Nicolas Hague (illness) are both in doubt for Friday's clash with Colorado. Unless one of the pair is cleared prior to puck drop, Englund could make his 2025-26 season debut. In the minors, the blueliner has notched two goals and four assists in 30 games, so fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting much from him in terms of offensive production.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Waived Wednesday
Englund was waived by Nashville on Wednesday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Englund had a goal, three points and 48 PIM across 35 regular-season appearances between the Kings and Predators in 2024-25. The 29-year-old defenseman will probably be among Nashville's top call-up options from the minors during the regular season if he successfully clears waivers.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Reaches agreement with Nashville
Englund signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Predators on Friday.
Englund was slated to become an unrestricted free agent during the offseason, but he'll remain with the Predators for the 2025-26 campaign. The 29-year-old made 35 appearances between Los Angeles and Nashville this year and recorded a goal, two assists, 78 hits, 40 blocked shots and 48 PIM while averaging 13:16 of ice time.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Gets back in lineup
Englund (illness) will play Wednesday versus the Stars, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Englund will return from a one-game absence and will fill a third-pairing role in the regular-season finale. The 29-year-old has just three points with 74 hits, 48 PIM and 38 blocked shots over 34 appearances between the Predators and the Kings this season.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Won't play Monday
Englund is day-to-day with an illness and will not play Monday versus Utah, according to Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.
Ryan Ufko, who was recalled from AHL Milwaukee on Monday, will make his NHL debut and replace Englund in the lineup against Utah. Englund's next chance to return to game action will be in Nashville's regular-season finale Wednesday against Dallas.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Gathers helper in defeat
Englund notched an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
Englund has two helpers over his last nine contests, but he's also gone minus-5 in that span. The 29-year-old has been a fixture on the third pairing when he suits up for the Predators. He's at three points, 17 shots on net, 74 hits, 38 blocked shots and 48 PIM across 34 outings between the Predators and the Kings in 2024-25, offering minimal upside in fantasy.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Contributes rare assist
Englund notched an assist, five hits and five PIM in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Blues.
The helper was Englund's first point with the Predators. The 29-year-old has combined for two points, 15 shots on net, 59 hits, 30 blocked shots, 41 PIM and a minus-5 rating between Nashville and Los Angeles this season. Englund is not a lock for the lineup in any given game, as Jordan Oesterle will push him for playing time. Englund's physical playing style doesn't make up for his total lack of scoring -- most fantasy managers can do better in filling out their depth.

Predators' Andreas Englund: First scratch with new team
Englund was scratched for Friday's 2-1 loss to the Ducks.
Englund had played in 10 straight games for the Predators after he was plucked off waivers from the Kings. Part of that was due to the Predators needing to dress seven blueliners while having only 11 healthy forwards on the roster, and that changed with Michael Bunting (abdomen) coming off injured reserve Friday. For now, Englund will likely be in competition with fellow waiver claim Jordan Oesterle for the last spot on the blue line, though the defensively shoddy Justin Barron could also be at risk of a scratch in the last few weeks of the season. Englund has just one goal, no assists, 11 shots on net, 36 PIM, 43 hits and 23 blocked shots over 21 appearances this season, and it seems likely he'll get back in the lineup against his former team Saturday.

Predators' Andreas Englund: Claimed off waivers
Nashville claimed Englund off waivers from the Kings on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Englund has one goal, four shots on net, seven blocked shots and 20 hits in 11 appearances this season. He was a healthy scratch in 13 straight games before landing on waivers. Englund could see more playing time with the Predators, especially if Adam Wilsby (upper body) and Jeremy Lauzon (lower body) remain unavailable after the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off.

Kings' Andreas Englund: Lands on waivers
Englund was put on waivers Sunday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Englund has been a healthy scratch for 13 straight games and might benefit from seeing some playing time in the minors if he clears waivers. He has generated one goal, four shots on net, seven blocked shots and 20 hits in 11 appearances this season.

Kings' Andreas Englund: Still struggling to join lineup
Englund was scratched for a sixth straight game in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.
Englund played three times earlier in January when Joel Edmundson was unavailable. However, Englund has since returned to being a frequent healthy scratch, and his path to the lineup has gotten even tougher since the Kings have resumed playing just six blueliners. Drew Doughty (ankle) is also nearing his season debut. While the Kings could take an unconventional approach and carry nine defensemen on the active roster for a while, one of Englund, Kyle Burroughs or Jacob Moverare will likely need to be waived eventually. Given Englund's limited playing time and uninspiring play, there's a good chance he could be the odd man out.

Kings' Andreas Englund: Can't get into lineup
Englund has been scratched for 17 straight games dating back to Nov. 13.
Even with the Kings routinely deploying seven defensemen lately, Englund hasn't been able to get into the lineup. Kyle Burroughs has instead filled the role of enforcer while dressing as the seventh blueliner, while Englund remains a veteran capable of stepping in at a moment's notice. Over eight contests this season, he has one goal, four shots on net, 12 PIM and 17 hits while averaging 11:48 of ice time. He doesn't need to be rostered in fantasy as long as he's stuck in the press box.
