He scored his first NHL goal on October 11, 2013 against Kevin Poulin of the New York Islanders. Nordström was sent down to the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL on October 21, 2013,[4] where he played before being recalled back to the Blackhawks on April 2, 2014.[5] In the 2014-2015 season with the IceHogs, Nordström was the captain of the IceHogs though he played 38 games with the Blackhawks, including three in the playoffs, and was part of the team that won the Stanley Cup in 2015.[6][7]
