Oliver Wahlstrom being available for the New York Islanders at eleven overall was a huge surprise. Media members ate up the Islanders first-round selections and rightfully so. The Islanders built themselves up strongly for the future.

He’s what they call a finisher in the business, he loves finding the back of the net and if you watch any of his highlight videos you’ll see some real beauties along the way.
