Panthers' Forsling Earns Spot on Team Sweden's 2026 Olympic Roster

Florida Panthers defenseman Gustav Forsling has been named to Team Sweden's 2026 Milano Cortina Olympic roster, marking his first Olympic appearance. The 26-year-old previously represented Sweden at the 2025 4 Nations Face-Off and the World Junior Championship. While he failed to record a point at the 4 Nations, Forsling is on pace for two goals and 29 points this season, and his play with defense partner Aaron Ekblad has recently improved. He is expected to play a critical defensive role at 5-on-5 and on the penalty kill for Sweden.
