Andreas Englund (born January 21, 1996) is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenseman. He is currently playing under contract with the Colorado Eagles of the American Hockey League (AHL). Englund was selected by the Ottawa Senators in the second round (40th overall) of the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career[]

Englund made his professional debut in the 2013–14 season, with his youth club Djurgårdens IF of the then HockeyAllsvenskan.[1] Following the club's promotion Englund made his Swedish Hockey League (SHL) during the 2014–15 season, appearing in 49 games for 5 points in his rookie campaign.

After two full seasons in the SHL marking 95 appearances, Englund left Sweden to pursue his NHL ambitions by signing a three-year, entry-level contract with the Ottawa Senators on April 5, 2016.[2] On December 3, 2016, Englund made his NHL debut with the Senators in a 2–0 victory over the Florida Panthers.

As an impending restricted free agent with the Senators, and facing a delayed 2020–21 North American season, Englund opted to remain in Sweden by agreeing to a season long contract with Västerviks IK of the HockeyAllsvenskan on 20 September 2020.[3] Through injury, Englund did not feature with the club, and he sat out the season in its entirety.

With the right's relinquished by the Senators after not receiving a qualifying offer, Englund opted to resume his professional career in North America, agreeing to a one-year AHL contract with the Colorado Eagles, the primary affiliate to the Colorado Avalanche on 28 July 2021.[4]
