Swedish term or phrase: hållna nollor
what does "Hållna nollor" mean in the context of hockey games?

shutouts
Explanation:
Since hockey is a North American game this is what they call it. I'm presuming this refers to the goalie -- counting a statistic for how good they've been playing or such. Sometimes this is measured in (consecutive) 'shutout minutes.'
