Soderblom will protect the road goal versus the Blues in Thursday's preseason game, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Soderblom allowed three goals on 26 shots in an overtime loss versus the Wild on Saturday. The 27-year-old netminder will get a second look during the preseason in this contest. Based on Soderblom's usage, he looks set to get the backup job behind Spencer Knight, while Drew Commesso is likely to head to AHL Rockford to start the year.
