Victor Ostman's story

Raised in Danderyd and born in 2000, Victor Östman came up through the Swedish junior system where early opportunities with HV71 shaped his development. He spent most of his junior years in HV71’s SuperElit squad and also made several appearances with HV71’s SHL roster, gaining initial exposure to professional-level play in Sweden.

After three seasons with HV71, Östman moved to North America for the 2019–20 season, joining the Chicago Steel in the USHL. He posted a 2.34 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage that season, numbers that helped him transition into the college game and draw interest from NCAA programs.

Östman committed to the University of Maine and wore the Black Bears jersey for four seasons. As a freshman he recorded a 3–6–1 record with a 3.77 GAA and a .902 save percentage, experience that introduced him to the demands of collegiate competition and steady game-to-game responsibility.

On 3 April 2024, Seattle signed Östman to a two-year entry-level contract and he was assigned to the Coachella Valley Firebirds in the AHL. Shortly before joining the Firebirds, on 8 April, he was named Outstanding Graduating International Student by the Maine Business School. He reached the NHL level on 8 April 2025, making his debut for the Kraken in relief of Joey Daccord against the Utah Hockey Club.

The measurable thread through Östman’s path is statistical steadiness: save percentages and GAA across junior, USHL and NCAA stops point to a goaltender who leans on consistency. Those numbers underpin his progression from Swedish junior hockey to contract status with the Seattle Kraken and professional minutes in the AHL and NHL.
