Wahlund doesn’t have many glaring weak points. He’s a rather smart two-way defender who does his job on both sides of the puck without jumping out too much. He doesn’t play a hyper-active style of game, but has sneaky offensive potential at the next level through his playmaking and smarts. He activates frequently but picks his spots wisely and – as of result – usually gets something concrete accomplished. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
