Playing career

A native of Örnsköldsvik, Olofsson played in the youth system of Modo Hockey and made his debut for the club's men's team in the SHL during the 2010–11 Elitserien season. After spending the 2012–13 campaign with the Odense Bulldogs in Denmark, he returned to his native Sweden, joining second-division team Almtuna IS for the 2013–14 season. After one year, Olofsson moved on to another Allsvenskan outfit, BIK Karlskoga. In 2015, he was picked up by Karlskrona HK of the SHL. He saw the ice in 57 games during the 2015–16 season, scoring 13 goals, while assisting on 16 more.

In April 2016, he signed with fellow SHL side Skellefteå AIK.[1] He played two years with SAIK, leaving following the 2017–18 season, to sign a two-year contract with his fourth SHL club, Färjestad BK, on 27 April 2018.[2]

He left Färjestad in May 2020 to pursue opportunities in the National Hockey League.[3] On May 20, 2020, Olofsson agreed to join his brother Victor within the Buffalo Sabres organization, signing a one-year AHL contract with affiliate, the Rochester Americans.[4]
