Victor Brattström (born 22 March 1997) is a Swedish professional ice hockey player currently playing for HV71 of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). He was drafted 160th overall by the Red Wings in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft.[1]

Playing career

[edit]

During the 2017–18 season, Brattström appeared in 15 games for Timrå IK of the HockeyAllsvenskan, where he posted a 10–5 record, with three shutouts, a 1.93 goals against average (GAA) and .918 save percentage.[1] Timrå IK was promoted to the Swedish Hockey League for the 2018–19 season.[2]

On 20 April 2018, Brattström signed a one-year contract with Timrå IK.[3] On 22 September 2018, Brattström made his professional debut for Timrå IK, where he allowed three goals on 33 shots in a 2–3 overtime loss to Skellefteå AIK.[4]

As Timrå IK was relegated to the Allsvenskan following a single season in the SHL, Brattström emerged as the club's starting goaltender for the 2019–20 season, appearing in 45 of 52 regular-season games. He collected 33 wins, finishing second among league goaltenders with a 2.13 goals against average and sixth with a .914 save percentage.

With Timrå IK resigning to continue in the Allsvenskan due to COVID-19, Brattström left to sign a one-year contract with Finnish top-flight club, KooKoo of the Liiga on 23 March 2020.[5] On 29 March 2020, Brattström was also signed to a two-year, entry-level contract with draft club, the Detroit Red Wings.[6]

After his contract with the Red Wings and as a pending restricted free agent, Brattström opted to return to Sweden in signing a one-year contract with HV71 of the SHL on 13 June 2023.[7]
