Anton Emil Wilde Larsen is a goaltender selected by the Dallas Stars in the sixth round (187th overall) of the 2026 NHL Draft — the final goaltender taken in the class. Born March 4, 2008 in Frederikshavn, the 6-foot-4 Danish netminder catches with his left hand and is a hometown product of the Frederikshavn White Hawks, holding his own in Denmark's top professional league as a 17-year-old.
He made his name on the international stage. At the U18 World Championship he turned in a signature effort, stopping 50 of 52 shots against Team USA, and a year earlier he had backstopped Denmark to a Division I-A title with a perfect 4-0 run, a 2.25 goals-against average and a .917 save percentage to earn promotion. He went on to start for Denmark at the 2026 World Junior Championship.
A big, positionally sound goaltender, Larsen joins a small but real line of Danish netminders in the NHL pipeline behind Frederik Andersen and Frederik Dichow, and is set to continue his development in Sweden's junior ranks with Linkoping. InGoal Magazine will expand its coverage as his career develops.
