Oliver Wahlstrom News

Wahlstrom will take a seat on Wednesday as the Bruins opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Cole Koepke will slot into the lineup in his place.

Wahlstrom has missed the last four games but will play Saturday vs. the Rangers. The Bruins have not announced who Wahlstrom will replace in the lineup. He has picked up just one goal and one assist in 12 games since joining the Bruins.

Wahlstrom did not play the previous two games and will remain out of the lineup for at least one more game. The 24-year-old Wahlstrom has two points (1G / 1A) in his last three games, his first points in 12 games as an Islander.

Wahlstrom will take a seat on Thursday to make way for the return of Trent Frederic (illness). Wahlstrom has three goals and three assists in 39 games this season.

Trent Frederic will not play on Monday against the San Jose Sharks due to an illness, allowing Wahlstrom to re-enter the lineup. Wahlstrom last played on January 11th. He has five points (3G / 2A) in 37 games this season.

Marc McLaughlin will be a healthy scratch on Thursday against the New York Rangers, allowing Wahlstrom to re-enter the lineup. The 24-year-old Wahlstrom has not played the last two games for Bruins. He has zero points, 17 penalty minutes, and a -2 plus/minus in his four games with the club.

Cole Koepke will be a healthy scratch on Thursday against the Edmonton Oilers, allowing Wahlstrom to make his debut with the Bruins. The Bruins claimed Wahlstrom off of waivers from the New York Islanders last week.

Wahlstrom has been a regular in the lineup for the Islanders this season, playing 27 games, but has only scored four points (2G / 2A). Wahlstrom has regularly seen time in New York's top-nine, including powerplay deployment, but has struggled to live up to his 11th-overall draft selection from 2018.

Matt Martin will be a healthy scratch on Friday, allowing Wahlstrom to re-enter the lineup. At morning skate on Friday, Wahlstrom was skating on a line with Pierre Engvall and Casey Cizikas. The 24-year-old Wahlstrom is averaging 9:39 time-on-ice through six games this season and has zero points.

After a long offseason discussion period Oliver Wahlstrom will remain in New York after signing a one-year, $1 million contract extension with the Islanders. The 24-year-old right-winger had an incredibly down 2023-24 season, appearing in his least amount of games (32) in the passed four seasons and only putting up two goals, six points, eight PIMs and 41 SOG.

With the Islanders opting to rest several players in the final game of the season, Wahlstrom will re-enter the lineup for the first time since February. Wahlstrom has had a disappointing campaign with six points (2G / 4A) in 31 games.

Wahlstrom will re-enter the lineup after being a healthy scratch for Monday's game in Minnesota. He has two goals and three assists in 21 games this season.

Wahlstrom will sit alongside Casey Cizikas (illness) as Julien Gauthier and Matt Martin draw back into the Islanders' lineup. Wahlstrom has two goals and three assists in 19 games this season.
