Goaltender Strauss Mann set a new SHL record with his tenth shutout of the season as Skellefteå AIK defeated Frölunda HC 2–0. The win propelled Skellefteå to the top of the league standings. Andreas Johnson scored the first goal for Skellefteå against Frölunda, and Rickard Hugg added a late goal.
The previous record for shutouts in a single season was nine, held by Oscar Alsenfelt (2016/17) and Fredrik Norrena (2003/04). ' He added, 'I think his fundamentals in the game are essentially the same. Really good footwork, really good at skating and really quick.
Nice to see it go in.
' Aftonbladet reports that Strauss Mann does not have a signed contract for the 2025/2026 season and that discussions are ongoing about his future with Skellefteå. Whether Mann will sign a contract with Skellefteå for the 2025/2026 season remains unknown.
I had not counted on Mann holding a shutout ten times, I don't think anyone had.
