Anton Wahlberg's Player Profile
Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - June 5th: "A big, skilled center who has played at the SHL and J20 level this season. Wahlberg’s skating has improved throughout the season, making him a dangerous transition player. The big Swede is strong on the puck, protecting it well at the men’s level."Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 5th: "Wahlberg’s a big kid with really good hands and above-average skating for a player his size (though he can lack coordination when he’s in a hurry). He can dance defenders and make plays in and out of traffic with uncharacteristic comfort for a bigger player."
Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 1st: "Wahlberg is 6-3 and has some rawness to his game, but he battles and wins his share of pucks. With some additional development time, the ceiling on him is immense, especially with the hand skills he possesses to go along with that imposing frame."
Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 30th: "He plays a direct style and with his frame plus speed can get to the net very well. I don't think he's overly physical, but he has some bite in him, gets to the net, and coaches tend to lean on him. Wahlberg's biggest issue is a lack of vision and so-so decision making with the puck."
Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - May 5th: "Has to be watched closely every time he hits the ice. Big body forward whose pace ranges from average to surprisingly quick, especially off the rush. Involved. Hard to move in traffic. But a work in progress. His impact ranges."
