Oliver Wahlstrom was on Jean-Gabriel Pageau’s wing during the Islanders’ practice on Saturday at Northwell Heath Ice Center in East Meadow, the spot where fellow rookie Kieffer Bellows has played the first four games.
It certainly raises the possibility that Wahlstrom, the 11th overall pick in 2018, could be elevated from the taxi squad to make his season’s debut on Sunday night against the Devils at Prudential Center, a rematch of the Islanders’ 4-1 win on Thursday night at Nassau Coliseum.
