  • Oliver Wahlstrom became a hockey sensation at nine years old during a tournament at TD Garden. Now, he's playing for the Bruins.

Oliver Wahlstrom, a forward for the Boston Bruins, has been making significant strides in his performance, particularly highlighted during a game against the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center. Wahlstrom, who was drafted 11th overall by the New York Islanders in 2018, has been working on his game, focusing on consistency and physicality. His recent efforts have paid off, as he scored his first goal of the season in that game, contributing to the Bruins' 5-2 victory. His development has been closely watched, especially since his move to the Bruins, where he has been trying to secure a more permanent role in the lineup. Wahlstrom's journey includes overcoming a significant injury, an ACL tear, which sidelined him for a considerable part of the previous season. His return to form and his contributions on the ice are seen as positive signs for both his career and the team's future.
