Victor Söderström is a Swedish defenseman who, at only 18 years old, has already made his way to the Swedish Hockey League (SHL) to play against the highest level of competition in the country. While he only posted seven points (4 Goals, 3 Assists) in 44 games with Brynäs IF, he was still able to put his dynamic skill set on full display.
Söderström possesses superb speed, using his smooth strides to blast through the neutral zone and close out on opposing forwards when defending. He hardly, if ever, backs off against the opposition, challenging attackers as soon as they enter the zone to keep a stable distance between them and the goaltender.
