Noah Östlund (born 11 March 2004) is a Swedish professional ice hockey center for the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League (AHL) as a prospect under contract to the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted 16th overall by the Sabres in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft.[1]
Östlund made his professional debut for Djurgårdens IF during the 2021–22 season, where he appeared in 11 games. He also appeared in 32 games for Djurgårdens' J20 team where he recorded nine goals and 33 assists.[2]
Following his selection in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, Östlund was signed by the Buffalo Sabres to a three-year, entry-level contract on 16 July 2022.[3] He was returned on loan to continue his development in Sweden with Djurgårdens IF in the HockeyAllsvenskan.
Unable to help Djurgårdens IF gain promotion, after losing the Allsvenskan finals to Modo Hockey, Östlund left the club and was loaned by the Sabres to continue his development in the SHL with reigning champions, Växjö Lakers, for the 2023–24 season on 4 June 2023.[4]
