Gabriel Carlsson (born 2 January 1997) is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenseman. He is currently playing with the Hershey Bears in the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract with the Washington Capitals of the National Hockey League (NHL).

He was considered one of the top ten international skaters for the 2015 NHL Entry Draft according to the NHL Central Scouting Bureau before he was selected 29th overall by the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Playing career
Carlsson came through the youth ranks of Örebro HK, before joining the Linköpings HC youth system in 2013. He made his Swedish Hockey League (SHL) debut with Linköping's men's squad during the 2014–15 SHL season. After appearing in 10 post-season games, Carlsson was signed to a two-year contract extension to remain with Linköping on 17 April 2015. He made 45 appearances in the 2015–16 SHL season with one goal and eight assists. Carlsson also competed in six playoff contests with Linköping that year.

The Columbus Blue Jackets, who picked Carlsson in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, announced on 19 April 2016 that he has signed a three-year entry level contract with the franchise. He made his NHL debut at the end of the 2016–17 season and played in five Stanley Cup playoff games. On 15 October 2017, Carlsson was injured during a game against the New York Rangers and was subsequently placed on injured reserve.

Carlsson started the 2018–19 season with the Blue Jackets in the NHL, but was reassigned to the Cleveland Monsters on 10 October.
