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

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 against the Florida Panthers.
