Soderblom allowed five goals on 35 shots in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Dallas experiment with new lines Sunday, and Soderblom was not able to keep up. This was just the second time all season he's allowed more than three goals in a game -- he's generally been good while serving as a 1B option to Petr Mrazek in the Chicago crease. Soderblom is 5-9-1 with a 2.78 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 16 appearances this season. The Blackhawks' next game is Tuesday's Winter Classic at Wrigley Field, and it's expected to be a start for the veteran Mrazek.

Soderblom will get the home start Sunday against the Stars, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom will make a third consecutive appearance -- the 25-year-old netminder stopped 22 of 24 shots in relief of Petr Mrazek against Buffalo on Friday. Overall, Soderblom is 5-8-1 with a strong .911 save percentage and 2.62 GAA this season.

Soderblom stopped 22 of 24 shots in relief during Friday's 6-2 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom entered the ice after Petr Mrazek allowed four goals on 11 shots in the first period. Even though the 25-year-old Swede was decent between the pipes, the Blackhawks couldn't overcome the early four-goal deficit. Soderblom has been putting up respectable numbers of late, going 3-1-0 with a 2.37 GAA and a .917 save percentage over his last five appearances while significantly outplaying Mrazek in that stretch.

Soderblom stopped 23 of 26 shots in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom technically didn't give up the decisive goal -- Marcus Foligno's empty-netter -- but he'll take the loss as the only Chicago goalie to appear in the contest. This wasn't a great performance for Soderblom, who saw his three-game winning streak snapped. He's allowed at least three goals in five of his eight outings in December so far, though he's 4-4-0 for the month. Overall, the Swede is 5-8-1 with a 2.60 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 14 appearances. The Blackhawks could turn to alternating Soderblom and Petr Mrazek's starts now that both are healthy, though the veteran Mrazek saw a heavy workload prior to a groin injury early in December.

Soderblom will defend the road net against the Wild on Monday, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom has stopped 76 of 82 shots during his three-game winning streak. He has a 5-7-1 record with a 2.56 GAA and a .913 save percentage through 13 appearances this season. Minnesota is tied for 19th in the league with 2.91 goals per game in 2024-25.

Soderblom stopped 27 of 28 shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom has won his last three starts and four of his last five, so the 25-year-old Swedish netminder is on a good run. He's given up two or fewer goals in three of those wins, and even though the 5-4 loss to the Islanders on Dec. 12 is a stain in that five-game stretch, Soderblom still owns a 2.50 GAA and a solid .909 save percentage in that aforementioned period.

Soderblom will defend the home crease versus Seattle on Thursday, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom has won his last two starts, as well as three of the past four games. Although Petr Mrazek (groin) was activated off injured reserve Thursday, Soderblom will make his sixth start in the last seven games. Soderblom is 4-7-1 with a respectable 2.70 GAA and .909 save percentage this season. He will face the Kraken, who are averaging 2.88 goals per game in 2024-25, which ranks 21st in the NHL.

Soderblom stopped 20 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom had a woeful showing against the Islanders on Dec. 12, giving up five goals on 19 shots, but he's bounced back admirably since then. He received some much-needed rest in the 4-1 loss to the Devils on Dec. 14, but he has won his last two starts, against the Islanders and Capitals, over three days. Soderblom has gone 3-3-0 with a 3.05 GAA and an .886 save percentage in six December contests, but there's no question his arrow is pointing in the right direction after his last outings.

Soderblom turned aside 30 of 33 shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Soderblom allowed five goals in a loss to New York on Thursday, but he was on the winning side Sunday against the Isles. The game was on the verge of heading to overtime, but Connor Bedard gave the Blackhawks a 4-3 lead with less than a minute left in the third period. Soderblom has now won two of his last three games after registering just one victory over his first eight outings of the campaign. The Swedish netminder has a 3-7-1 record, .909 save percentage and 2.76 GAA through 11 appearances.
