Jan Sverker Andreas Salomonsson (born December 19, 1973) is a Swedish former professional ice hockey player who played briefly in the National Hockey League.

Originally drafted in 2001 by the New Jersey Devils, Salomonsson was claimed on waivers by the Washington Capitals in 2002. Following the 2002–03 NHL season, Salomonsson returned to play for Modo Hockey in the Swedish Elite League, where he had previously played for many years before his brief time in North America.

On February 11, 2010, Salomonsson retired due to an unhealed groin injury.[1]
