Hardy Åström (born March 29, 1951 in Skellefteå, Sweden) is a retired Swedish professional ice hockey goaltender who played three seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the New York Rangers and Colorado Rockies.
He was perhaps most infamous for letting in shots taken from behind the blue line. Rockies head coach Don Cherry unceremoniously dubbed him "The Swedish Sieve."
