NHL Waivers: Boston Bruins Claim Oliver Wahlstrom From New York Islanders The Boston Bruins claimed 2018 first-round pick Oliver Wahlstrom off waivers from the New York Islanders on Saturday.
DECEMBER 14 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Claimed off waivers Boston claimed Wahlstrom off waivers from the Islanders on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Wahlstrom has two goals, two assists, 30 shots on net and 18 blocked shots across 27 appearances this season. He will compete for a bottom-six spot with the Bruins. Wahlstrom is eligible for restricted free agency at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.
DECEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on waivers Wahlstrom was placed on waivers Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Impact Wahlstom has been a disappointment since he was selected 11th overall in the 2018 Draft. Wahlstrom had 34 goals and 33 assists across 193 games heading into the 2024-25 campaign. His game has regressed over the last three seasons, culminating in tallying only two goals and four points in 27 appearances this season. Should Wahlstrom pass through waivers, he likely will be sent to AHL Bridgeport.
DECEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE
Scores in win Saturday Wahlstrom scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes.
Impact Wahlstrom has picked up two points over his last three games. The 24-year-old has been in the lineup regularly since the start of November, but he has little to show for it on offense while filling a bottom-six role. Overall, he's at four points, 28 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 24 appearances. Stronger play in the short term will help Wahlstrom stay in the lineup once the Islanders get Mathew Barzal (upper body) and Anthony Duclair (lower body) back from injury.

Stops eight-game slide Wahlstrom picked up an assist along with one shot and one block in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Canadiens.
Impact Wahlstrom directed a puck to Anders Lee for Islanders' lone goal. The helper halted an eight-game run without a point. The third-line winger has just one goal and two assists through 22 outings.
DECEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
Hands out helper Wahlstrom recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.
Impact Wahlstrom has earned two points over his last four outings, accounting for all of his offense this season. It's been enough to keep him in the lineup for seven straight games as he fends off a playing-time challenge from Hudson Fasching. Wahlstrom has added 13 shots on net, seven PIM and a minus-5 rating over 13 appearances this season. Fantasy managers can look elsewhere for depth scoring since he is averaging just 9:45 of ice time per game.
NOVEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies first goal of season Wahlstrom scored a goal in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Senators.
Impact Wahlstrom earned his first goal and point of the season at 2:41 of the third period, and the tally stood as the game-winner. The winger has added 10 shots on net, seven PIM, two hits, four blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 10 appearances. He's not a lock for the lineup and has often seen a fourth-line role when he plays. Wahlstrom will continue to compete with Pierre Engvall, Matt Martin and Hudson Fasching for three spots in the lineup as depth wingers.
NOVEMBER 8 • ROTOWIRE
Picks fight Friday Wahlstrom had a fighting major in Friday's 4-3 win over the Sabres.
Impact Wahlstrom had been scratched for the previous three games. The 24-year-old winger is competing with Hudson Fasching and Matt Martin for a spot in the lineup. Wahlstrom has no points through seven games, and he's added a modest four shots on net, two hits, three blocked shots and seven PIM while seeing fourth-line usage. He'll have a chance to stake his claim to a lineup spot while Mathew Barzal (upper body) is on long-term injured reserve for likely all of November.

Signs one-year contracy Wahlstrom penned a one-year contract with the Islanders on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Wahlstrom and the Islanders avoided arbitration, agreeing to the one-year deal. Wahlstrom has been a huge disappointment since he was drafted 11th overall in 2018. He managed to score just a pair of goals and six points in 32 regular-season games in 2023-24, as he was a healthy scratch in 24 consecutive games, before seeing action in the regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh. Wahlstrom is expected to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25, which will hamper his fantasy value.

Available to play Wahlstrom (illness) took part in the morning skate after missing Monday's practice, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports.
Impact It appears as though Wahlstrom will be available to play Tuesday against Edmonton, but Rosner doesn't expect the 23-year-old forward to be in the lineup. Wahlstrom has supplied seven points, 23 shots on goal, 13 blocked shots and 15 hits in 17 appearances this season. He has been a healthy scratch for the past seven games.
DECEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Absent with illness Wahlstrom missed practice Monday due to illness, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports.
Impact Wahlstrom has been a healthy scratch for the club's last seven games so his potential absence against the Oilers on Tuesday shouldn't have much impact on the lineup. When Wahlstrom has cracked the lineup, he has recorded two goals on 23 shots, three assists and 15 this while averaging 11:39 of ice time in 17 outings.
DECEMBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Good for two points in win Wahlstrom scored a goal with an assist in Friday's 5-3 road win against the Senators.
Impact Wahlstrom was good for a plus-2 rating, one shot on goal and three blocked shots in just 10:04 of ice time across 17 shifts. He has points in consecutive games for the first time this season, posting a goal and three points. It was his first multi-point showing since notching two helpers on Dec. 16, 2022 on the road against the Coyotes.
NOVEMBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Collects power-play assist Wahlstrom posted a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Impact Wahlstrom set up a Pierre Engvall tally at 7:30 of the first period. While Wahlstrom has yet to solidify his place in the lineup, he's picked up both of his points this season over his last four outings. He's added 17 shots on net, 12 hits and a minus-1 rating through nine appearances.
NOVEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Notches first goal of season Wahlstrom scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Wild.
Impact Sandwiched between two defenders in the Minnesota zone, Wahlstrom still managed to snap off a shot from the faceoff circle that beat Marc-Andre Fleury just inside the far post. The 23-year-old has played only six of the Islanders' 11 games so far as he gets eased back into action following a knee injury that ended his 2022-23 campaign in late December, and Tuesday's tally was his first point of the current season.
