Jonsson posted shutouts in both of his appearances at Iowa last week.

The 21-year-old stopped all 29 shots in a 4-0 win on Wednesday and turned aside all 15 shots in a 2-0 victory on Saturday.

Under a National Hockey League contract with Edmonton, Jonsson leads the ECHL with two shutouts this season to go along with a 3-0-0 record, a 1.67 goals-against average and a save percentage of .932.

Last season, he was named HockeyAllsvenskan Goalie of the Year after leading the league with six shutouts and posting a league-best 1.88 goals-against average while going 17-6-0 in 24 outings with Bofors IK.
