Ludvig Byström (born 20 July 1994) is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenceman for the Springfield Thunderbirds of the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract with the Florida Panthers of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted 43rd overall by the Dallas Stars in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft.[1]
Playing career
Prior to being drafted, Byström played with Modo Hockey in the Elitserien during the 2010–11 and 2011–12 seasons.[2]
During the 2012 NHL Entry Draft, Byström was drafted in the second round, 43rd overall by the Dallas Stars. On 16 July 2012, he signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Stars.[3] However, he was then returned on loan to Modo. On 29 April 2013, Byström was reassigned from Modo to league rivals Färjestad BK for two seasons on loan.
At the completion of the 2014–15 season with Färjestad BK, Byström embarked on his North American career in reporting to the Stars' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate in Texas on 12 March 2015.[4]
On 17 June 2017, the Stars re-signed Byström to a one-year, two-way extension worth $650,000.[5] On 10 November 2017 Byström was traded to the Florida Panthers in exchange for Reece Scarlett. He was immediately assigned to Panthers' AHL affiliate, the Springfield Thunderbirds.[6] On 31 May 2018, he signed a one-year contract extension with the Panthers.[7]
