Engvall, a player with a $3 million cap hit, has been placed on waivers by the Islanders, mainly as a move to get under the salary cap. Despite being viewed positively during playoffs, his performance compared with new acquisitions led to this decision.
Lou Lamoriello noted that Engvall was seen as one of the stronger players in last season's playoffs, but with new signings, the Isles had to make difficult roster decisions. It raises questions about the depth and competition within the team.
