Gustafsson made his Swedish Hockey League debut as a 17-year old playing with HV71 during the 2017–18 SHL season. He registered 6 goals and 12 points in 45 games.

After his selection to the Jets in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, Gustafsson played through his second full season in 2018–19 with HV71 posting 2 goals and 12 points in 36 games.
