The American Hockey League announced today that Toronto Marlies goaltender Jussi Rynnas has been named the Reebok/AHL Player of the Week for the period ending November 14, 2010. In three games last week, Rynnas posted a 3-0-0 record with a 1.00 goals-against average and 0.971 save percentage.
The Pori, Finland native has appeared in eight games with the Marlies this season, posting a record of 3-3-1 with a 1.95 goals against average and 0.936 save percentage. The rookie goaltender ranks third in the league in both goals against average and save percentage. He made 33 saves last Tuesday night in Hartford for his first career AHL/pro shutout.
