Leo Sahlin Wallenius' Player Profile

Sebastian High - Dobber Prospects - November 18th: "With the puck on his stick, Sahlin Wallenius makes quick decisions under single-variable pressure and uses his mobility, handling, and anticipation to solve problems. He has real riser potential for our next rankings, but we’ve not quite seen enough of the dynamic skill he flashes to bump out any of our final few top 32 players."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - November 8th: "Sahlin Wallenius is an outstanding skater – maybe the best among defenders in the class. That helps make up for the fact that he’s just 5-foot-11, something that does get exploited at points."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - November 8th: "He's got good hands for a defenseman. His offensive zone instincts are already there. And whenever I watch him, it feels like he has taken a step versus the last viewing as he builds confidence and finds new ways to impact play."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - November 1st: "Sahlin Wallenius isn’t the biggest defenseman but he’s a very solid two-way player — primarily because he’s one of the best skaters in the draft. He has a powerful and efficient stride that allows him to easily evade pressure and skate pucks up ice."
