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 Allsvenskan on 20 September 2020.[3]
