New York Islanders Top 25 Under 25: Young Linus Soderstrom at #14
The young Swede has big potential, but a long road ahead.Linus Soderstrom is another goalie prospect with an interesting background, but unlike fellow northern European Christopher Gibson his pro career has really only just begun.
This season Söderström opened up to Swedish media about Asperger's and ADHD, and how embracing his diagnoses helped him be who he is. Who that is, is a pretty promising goalie prospect. In his junior career he's been known as a focused goalie who uses his size well to cut down angles and read the play. His experience in the pros is limited but also impressive thus far.
