Ludwig Blomstrand (born March 8, 1993) is a Swedish professional ice hockey player who currently plays for Södertälje SK in the HockeyAllsvenskan (Allsv). He made his Elitserien debut on September 27, 2011, against Brynäs IF.[1] He was selected by the Vancouver Canucks in the 4th round, 120th overall, of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft.[2]

After completing his entry-level contract within the Canucks affiliates, Blomstrand was not tendered a qualifying offer to remain with Vancouver. As a free agent, Blomstrand opted to return to his native Sweden, securing a two-year contract in a return with second division club, Almtuna IS of the Allsvenskan on May 12, 2016.[3]
