The New York Islanders re-signed restricted free-agent forward Oliver Wahlstrom to a one-year deal, the team announced Monday.
Wahlstrom agreed to his qualifying offer, a source told The Athletic's Kevin Kurz. His qualifying offer was worth $874,125, per CapFriendly.
The 23-year-old winger recorded seven goals and nine assists in 35 games with the Islanders last season. He missed the second half of the season with a lower-body injury.
Wahlstrom has tallied 61 points in 161 career NHL games across parts of four seasons. He showed plenty of promise during the 2020-21 campaign when he potted 12 goals in 44 contests.
The Islanders selected Wahlstrom 11th overall at the 2018 NHL Draft.
