Islanders' Oliver Wahlstrom: Returning Saturday

Wahlstrom (upper body) will make his return Saturday versus Anaheim, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.

Wahlstrom wasn't in the lineup for the Islanders' 3-1 loss to Florida on Thursday because of the injury. He had 13 goals and 24 points in 73 games in 2021-22. Now that he's healthy, he's expected to play on the third line with Josh Bailey and Jean-Gabriel Pageau.
