Andreas Englund

29-Year-Old DefensemanD
Nashville Predators
2025 Fantasy Outlook
After appearing in all 82 regular-season games with the Kings in 2023-24, Englund suited up for just 35 total contests in 2024-25. The 29-year-old was claimed off waivers by Nashville from Los Angeles in February, and he’ll remain with the Predators in 2025-26 after signing a one-year, $775,000 contract in April. As a shutdown defenseman who provides physicality (58 hits in 24 games with Nashville), Englund’s lack of meaningful contributions in other categories gives him virtually no appeal in standard leagues, but he could make depth contributions in deeper banger formats when he’s in the lineup. However, there’s no guarantee he’ll receive steady playing time this year due to the additions of Nicolas Hague and Nick Perbix on the blue line. Read Past Outlooks

Waived Wednesday

October 1, 2025
Englund was waived by Nashville on Wednesday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
ANALYSIS
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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2018
A part-time player for each of his first five NHL seasons, Englund came out of nowhere to play in all 82 games in his first year with Los Angeles. The offensive numbers were predictably minimal (one goal, 10 points), but Englund did register 189 hits and 87 blocked shots. As solid as the Swede was a year ago, the Kings went out and handed Joel Edmundson a whopping four-year, $15.4 million contract in free agency. The monetary commitment and length of the deal suggests Edmundson is going to take over as the third-pairing left-handed rearguard for Los Angeles and Englund may be headed back to the press box more often than not.
Englund moved on last season following parts of four years with Ottawa, splitting time between Colorado and Chicago. He served in a depth role in both spots, managing just four assists in 47 games. Englund did well to secure a two-year deal with the Kings in free agency in July, even if the monetary commitment -- $1 million annually -- was minimal. Without a goal in his first 80 NHL games, Englund is a clear fade in all fantasy formats for 2023-24.
Could this be the year the Senators choose to bring Englund up to the NHL for more than just a single cup of coffee? If it is, odds are it won't help your fantasy team much. The 22-year-old Swede is more in the mold of a defensive blueliner than he is of his countryman, Erik Karlsson. Englund scored just 10 points (one goal, nine assists) last season at AHL Belleville. He might end the year in Ottawa, but he's unlikely to be worth much to your fantasy team and doesn't belong on a dynasty roster.
