Johan Södergran (born November 20, 1999) is a Swedish ice hockey forward who plays for Linköping HC in the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). The Los Angeles Kings selected him in the sixth round, 165th overall, of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft.[1]

Playing career

Södergran made his first appearance in the SHL with Linköping HC in 2016, stepping onto the ice for a single game during the 2015–16 SHL season.[2]

During the 2018–19 season, Södergran established himself as a regular contributor for Linköping HC, appearing in 42 games and recording 8 goals along with 5 assists for 13 points. Recognizing his potential, the Los Angeles Kings, who had selected him in the sixth round of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, signed him to a three-year, entry-level contract on June 10, 2019.[3]

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic delaying his second pro season in North America, Södergran stayed in Sweden and was loaned to Almtuna IS of HockeyAllsvenskan by the Kings on August 29, 2020.[4] He played 12 games for Almtuna, recording 3 points, before his loan was cut short because of an injury.

Södergran came back to North America for the 2021–22 season, where he scored 3 goals over just 7 games before being sent back to Europe to further his development, joining the German DEL club Eisbären Berlin on loan from the Kings on March 2, 2022.[5]

Following his role in Eisbären Berlin's championship win, Södergran became a free agent from the Kings and returned to Sweden, signing a two-year deal with MoDo Hockey of the Allsvenskan on May 26, 2022.[6]

After MoDo Hockey's demotion to the Allsvenskan, Södergran left the club to remain in the SHL, signing a two-year contract for a second stint with Linköping HC on 9 April 2025.[7]
