Rangers Acquire Arvid Soderblom
The Rangers have changed up their goaltending depth. They announced that they have acquired Arvid Soderblom from the Blackhawks in exchange for goaltender Spencer Martin. Both players have been assigned to their respective AHL teams.
Soderblom came into the season as Chicago’s backup goalie, the role he had held since partway through the 2022-23 season. However, he, like many Blackhawks, didn’t get off to a good start. Through five appearances, the 27-year-old posted a 4.67 GAA with a .842 SV%. That ultimately saw him land on waivers back on Monday, resulting in an assignment to AHL Rockford.
