Soderblom scored a third-period tally during a 4-2 win over the visiting Senators on Saturday.
Scouting Report
The enormous (6'6") winger from Sweden went from a sixth-round draft pick to the NHL in three years because of his combination of size and skill. He has soft hands, is dangerous around the net and can make plays in tight spaces. Had little difficulty adapting to the smaller rinks in North America, and has shown an ability to learn and grow his game as he matures.
Long Range Potential: Huge power forward with good upside.
