The Shootout Kid Talks

from Dan Rosen of NHL.com,

He has quickly become an Internet sensation and is now all over the airwaves.

(Oliver) Wahlstrom was in New York on Friday to be interviewed on CBS and ESPN. He’s going to Fox studios Saturday and will also be interviewed by a Swedish television reporter for TV4 back in Sweden, where his father, Joakim, is from and used to play professionally.

He toured the NHL Store Powered by Reebok on Friday evening and got to meet San Jose stars Dan Boyle, Patrick Marleau, Dany Heatley and Devin Setoguchi, who were in for an event. Wahlstrom was also given a Winter Classic retro T-shirt and a Boston Bruins puck by Brian Jennings, the NHL’s Executive VP for Marketing.

“It’s chaos,” the soft-spoken Oliver told NHL.com. “I thought they would only see it at the rink.”

more and the video is of the shootout goal, just in case you missed it…
