On the tail end of a back-to-back, a night after a 4-1 loss to the Detroit Red Wings, the Blackhawks will switch to Soderblom between the pipes in a Thursday night matchup against their division rivals, the Dallas Stars. The 25-year-old Soderblom has seen limited action this season but has been solid when called upon, posting a 2.35 GAA and .927 SV% in three outings (1-1-1). That said, the Blackhawks enter the action on Thursday as significant +285 road underdogs against the Stars.
Soderblom will return to backup Petr Mrazek on Monday after missing the last two games due to an illness. Soderblom has made two appearances this season, posting a 0-1-1 record and a .911 SV%. Drew Commesso has been reassigned to Rockford (AHL) to make room for Soderblom's return.
Soderblom was originally projected to start Saturday's game in Dallas, but that is seemingly now up in the air. The recently recalled Drew Commesso will serve as the backup for Petr Mrazek on Friday night.
Petr Mrazek struggled in the Blackhawks season-opening 5-2 loss to the Utah Hockey Club, allowing four goals on 26 shots (.846 SV%).

The 25-year-old Soderblom appeared in 32 games last season (5-22-2), posting a pedestrian 3.92 GAA and .879 SV%.
