The Best Of Jesper Wallstedt | Top Prospect For The NHL 2021 Draft | Hockey Highlights | HD

Player Profile – November 14, 2002 Nationality – Sweden Draft Eligibility – 2021 Height –6’3 Weight –214 lbs Position – Goaltender Catches – Left He’s a strong, fluid skater in the crease, and doesn’t mind coming out to challenge oncoming threats. He’ll ramp up the aggression when necessary, but only when the moment calls for it. He tracks pucks well. He doesn’t get rattled when he makes a mistake. Wallstedt’s precise finding his parameters around the blue paint, and has a fairly evenly distributed ability to stop pucks with his hands. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide Steve Kournianos - The Draft Analyst - May 24th: “Wallstedt should make it three straight years that a backstop was taken within the first 30 or so picks, and for good reason — he outgrew junior hockey several years ago and at 18 years old was one of the better backups in the SHL.“ Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - May 12th: “How long will development take and how far down the line can you project the position? But, if Spencer Knight is the template, have at it.“ Mike G. Morreale - - Apr. 23rd: “The 18-year-old can read the game well, has good quickness and plays a hybrid butterfly/athletic style.“ Danny Tiffany - Dobber Prospects - Mar. 8: “Wallstedt uses his big frame to his advantage and blends that with really good positioning. However, it’s Wallstedts IQ and understanding of plays before they happen that make him the X-Factor every time he’s between the pipes.“ Tony Ferrari - Dobber Prospects - Feb. 22nd: “Wallstedt’s ability to read the play and use his athleticism throughout the crease to maintain his positioning is at a level seldom seen by U20 goalies, let alone draft eligibles. The young Swede plays with an almost robotic technique yet has the awareness and ability to come out of his structure to make the big save.“ Josh Bell - FC Hockey - Feb. 10th: “Wallstedt, leading that charge, has taken on a starting role in the SHL and is putting up some of the best numbers in the league.“ Cam Robinson - Dobber Prospects - : “His stride is long and fluid. He’s not as creative as his older brothers but can cause fits in transition. Can make players miss in all three zones.“
