Oliver Wahlstrom's Future In Doubt Despite New Deal
New York Islanders right wing Oliver Wahlstrom isn't expected to remain with the team for the upcoming NHL campaign. The Islanders signed Wahlstrom to a one-year, $1 million deal ahead of a scheduled salary arbitration hearing earlier in the week, but according to Ethan Sears of The New York Post, it would be a "surprise" if Wahlstrom was on the opening night roster. Coming off an ACL injury, Wahlstrom made only 32 appearances last season, posting six points (two goals, four assists). He was mostly a healthy scratch under new head coach Patrick Roy, who arrived in January. The 24-year-old, who was a first-round pick in 2018, has totaled 67 points (34 goals, 33 assists) in 193 career games. A fresh start somewhere else could give Wahlstrom a boost, but he boasts very little fantasy value.
