Goalie Arvid Soderblom definitely falls in that bucket ... On one hand, Soderblom has already altered how the Hawks, their fans and the league perceive him ... On the other hand, Soderblom's situation has become a bit shakier during the past month.
While fans in Hockeytown are disappointing in the Detroit Red Wings' efforts in their 2-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night, there was another goal from Elmer Soderblom, one of the team’s rising stars.
Now, he's the leading option in a crowded goalie room with Arvid Soderblom and Petr Mrazek... That pretty well establishes the current hierarchy, since Soderblom is eight years younger than Mrazek and has decidedly out-performed him this season.
