Impact Soderblom is getting his first taste of playoff action in the NHL, and he's doing so in a bottom-six role. The goal was his first point in four appearances in this first-round series. The 24-year-old has added nine shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating. Soderblom split the regular season between Pittsburgh and Detroit, totaling seven goals, 13 points, 69 shots on net and 99 hits across 59 games.

Finds twine in loss Soderblom scored a goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Blues.

Impact Soderblom has looked good lately with four goals and four assists over his last 10 outings. He's done much of that from a bottom-six role, though he's seen a slight uptick in ice time while the Penguins rest their key players. Soderblom looks to be at least a fourth-line lock to start the playoffs. Between Pittsburgh and Detroit this season, he has seven goals, 13 points, 69 shots on net, 99 hits and a minus-1 rating over 59 appearances.

Scores again Sunday Soderblom scored a goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.

Impact Soderblom earned three points over two games versus the Panthers over the weekend. The 24-year-old has fit right in on the Penguins' fourth line lately, earning six points over his last six outings. He's up to six goals, 11 points, 66 shots on net, 92 hits and a minus-1 rating over 55 appearances between the Penguins and the Red Wings this season.

Two-point game in blowout win Soderblom scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Saturday's 9-4 win over the Panthers.

Impact Soderblom played well in the first half of the two-game set against Florida. The 24-year-old winger has gotten more comfortable in the lineup late with two goals and three assists over his last five games. He's up to 10 points, 65 shots on net, 92 hits and a minus-2 rating over 54 appearances between Pittsburgh and Detroit this season. Soderblom's place in the lineup should be secure until Blake Lizotte (upper body) returns.

Goal, fight in win Soderblom scored a goal on two shots, doled out three hits and added five PIM in Monday's 8-3 win over the Islanders.

Impact Soderblom got the Penguins on the board at 6:41 of the second period with the first of their five goals in that frame. The 24-year-old has a goal and an assist over his last two games, but he went five contests without a point prior to that. He's now at four points in 12 outings with the Penguins, one more than he had in 39 appearances with the Red Wings to begin the campaign. Soderblom is likely to remain in a bottom-six role moving forward.

First two points for new team Soderblom scored a goal, added an assist and went plus-3 in Monday's 7-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Soderblom had gone four games without a point to start his Pittsburgh tenure following a trade from Detroit. The 24-year-old has mostly been limited to a fourth-line role, and the return of Evgeni Malkin from a suspension cost Soderblom his power-play minutes Monday. Over 44 outings in total this season, he has five points, 52 shots on net, 69 hits and a minus-4 rating, so he's unlikely to emerge as a strong fantasy option down the stretch.

MARCH 6 • HOCKEYFEED.COM

Headed for Steel City Soderblom was traded to Pittsburgh from Detroit on Friday in exchange for a 2026 third-round pick.

Impact Soderblom is currently mired in a 16-game pointless streak and has served as a healthy scratch for the last three games. All signs of a young player in need of change, something general manager Kyle Dubas has frequently targeted. It cost the Penguins a third-round pick they previously acquired from San Jose. Soderblom should be in the mix for a bottom-six role with the Pengs but may find himself serving as a healthy scratch periodically.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Cold on offense Soderblom was held off the scoresheet for a 15th straight game in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Mammoth.

Impact Soderblom was also scratched seven times in that span, though he's played every game since Jan. 10. The Red Wings have some depth players in the AHL that could get a look over Soderblom following the Olympic break. The 24-year-old has had a brutal season with just three points, 42 shots on net, 62 hits and a minus-4 rating over 38 appearances in a fourth-line role, which isn't going to cut it for a team with playoff aspirations.

Tallies in Saturday's win Soderblom scored a goal, added two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.

Impact The goal was Soderblom's first since Oct. 28 versus the Blues. The 24-year-old forward had just one assist in 17 games between tallies, though he also missed eight contests in that span, seven of which were due to an undisclosed injury. Soderblom has a slightly more secure spot in the lineup with Jonatan Berggren now in St. Louis. For the season, Soderblom has three points, 25 shots on net, 36 hits and a minus-3 rating over 23 appearances, so he won't be a factor in most fantasy formats without a significant uptick in offense.
