Marcus Sörensen (born 7 April 1992) is a Swedish professional ice hockey player. Sörensen is a member of Skellefteå AIK of the Swedish elite league Elitserien.
Playing career
Sörensen began playing hockey in Tälje IK, before he was acquired by Södertälje SK's youth organization where he began playing junior hockey. His play attracted the attention of North American pro hockey scouts. Sörensen was drafted in the fourth round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft by Ottawa Senators, 106th overall.[1]
Sörensen moved to Djurgårdens IF for the 2010–11 season, to play in Djurgården's J20-team. Sörensen made his Elitserien debut on 7 December 2010 against Luleå HF, when several regular players were suffering from illness and injuries.[2] He also scored his first Elitserien goal when he shot the puck via Luleå defencemen Janne Niinimaa's stick into the goal.[3] After the 2010–11 season, Sörensen signed a two year deal with Skellefteå AIK.[4] Sörensen played the majority of the 2011–12 hockey season with Borås HC of the Allsvenskan league, on loan. The Ottawa Senators did not sign Sorensen by the June 1, 2012 deadline, leaving Sorensen free to sign with any NHL team in the future.
