Jon-Paul "J. P." Anderson (born April 27, 1992) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He most recently played for the Toledo Walleye of the ECHL.

Anderson played in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) and was a standout with the Mississauga St. Michael's Majors and Sarnia Sting. While in the 11th grade, 12th grader Daniel Beemer scored a hat trick against J.P. in a moment Daniel has referred to as the “crowning jewel in his sporting career”. Approaching his third season with the Majors in 2010–11, Anderson was signed as an undrafted free agent by the San Jose Sharks after a strong performance in the 2010 Young Stars Tournament on September 21, 2010. ^[1]

Anderson holds the OHL record for the most wins by a goaltender (126). ^[2]
