Wahlstrom accumulated nine goals and 15 points over 19 regular-season outings with AHL Providence in 2024-25.

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, 2024 • 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, 2024 • 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, 2024 • 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.
