Connor Hellebuyck News

Hellebuyck will look to extend his two-game winning streak as he appears to be the starting goalie for the Jets on Thursday. After an uncharacteristic start to the season, posting a .843 SV% through his first three contests (1-2-0), Hellebuyck seems to have regained his Vezina-caliber form, boasting a .933 SV% in his two games since (2-0-0). Hellebuyck and the Jets might be facing their toughest matchup of the season as they visit the high-flying Detroit Red Wings who are averaging an absurd 4.86 goals per game to start the season (5-1-1).

Hellebuyck will start on Tuesday against the St. Louis Blues and look to improve on his uncharacteristically poor start to the season. In four games, Hellebuyck has salvaged a 2-2-0 record despite an unsightly 3.72 GAA and .878 SV%. Hellebuyck has only finished a season with a sub- .910 SV% once in his career and should be able to get back on track against a Blues team that ranks fourth-worst offensively (2.00 GF/GP). As such, the Jets enter action as -182 home favourites.

Hellebuyck allowed five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) in a loss to Los Angeles in his previous start but will be looking to turn the tides Saturday as he takes on Edmonton. The 30-year-old workhouse has struggled out of the gate this season, with a 1-2-0 record, .843 SV% and a 4.38 GAA. He takes on the Edmonton Oilers, who have lost three of their first four games to start the season and are tied for 19th in the NHL in goals per game (2.75).

Hellebuyck will tend the crease for the third consecutive game to open the season for the Jets. After signing a massive contract extension before the start of the season, Hellebuyck has struggled out of the starting block. In his two games so far (1-1-0), Hellebuyck has a very uncharacteristic 4.07 GAA and .852 SV%. He will look to get things back in order tonight as the Jets are -130 home favourites against a Los Angeles Kings team that is still searching for their first win of the season (0-1-1).

Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 21 shots in the Jets' loss in Winnipeg on opening night. It was a tough start to the season for the workhorse netminder, but he should be relied upon whenever he gets the nod. This afternoon he'll face a Panthers team that was shutout in their first game and come in without Aaron Ekblad, Brandon Montour and Sam Bennett.

Hellebuyck is fresh off signing a huge seven-year contract extension worth a whopping $59.5 million and seems likely to get the start in the Jets' season-opener against the Flames. Hellebuyck has had one of the heaviest workloads amongst NHL goaltenders over the last half-decade and will likely continue with that trajectory this season. In 64 games last season (37-25-2), he posted a 2.49 GAA and a .920 SV% along with four shutouts. The Jets are +116 road underdogs against a Flames team that is looking to improve on their 19th-ranked offence from last season (3.15 goals/GM). Last season, Hellebuyck had a losing record against the Flames (1-2-0) despite posting an impressive 2.71 GAA and .924 SV% in those games.

Hellebuyck led the NHL in games played in 2022-23 (64) to go along with his 37-25-2 record, .920 SV%, and 2.49 GAA and has now signed a seven-year, $59.5 million contract extension ($8,500,000) with Winnipeg. The 30-year-old workhorse goaltender is entering his ninth NHL season with Winnipeg and has a 238-154-37 record with a career .916 SV% and 2.66 GAA.

Hellebuyck allowed three goals on 29 shots (.897 SV%) for his third consecutive loss as Winnipeg went down 3-1 in their opening series vs. Vegas. The 29-year-old makes his 69th appearance of the season and has struggled so far in the playoffs with his 1-3-0 record, 3.21 GAA and .895 SV%. He will hope to keep the Jets' season alive as they take on Vegas on the road Thursday, who finished the regular season 14th in the NHL in goals per game (3.26).

Hellebuyck allowed five goals on 48 shots (.896 SV%) as he was the hard-luck loser in a heartbreaking 5-4 overtime defeat in Game 3. The 29-year-old has not been his usual dominant self in this years playoffs, with his 1-2-0 record, 3.25 GAA and .894 SV%. He will be hoping to get Winnipeg back in the win column over Vegas Monday, who finished the regular season 14th in the NHL in goals per game (3.26) during the regular season.

Hellebuyck was not very busy in Game 1, stopping 16 of 17 shots (.941 SV%) as he beat Vegas 5-1 in the series opener. The 29-year-old is coming off a fantastic 2022-23 regular season, where he was 37-25-2 with a .920 SV% and 2.49 GAA. He will hope for more smooth sailing as he takes on Vegas Thursday, who finished the regular season 14th in the NHL in goals per game (3.26).

Hellebuyck had a fantastic regular season, finishing second in Jets history in wins in a season with his 37-25-2 record, 2.49 GAA and .920 SV% and is expected to start game 1 Tuesday vs. Vegas. The 29-year-old has previously played in 35 playoff games for the Jets, posting a 16-19-0 record, 2.46 GAA and .921 SV% across four separate postseasons. He will face the Vegas Golden Knights, who finished their season 51-22-9 and are 14th in the NHL in goals per game (3.26).

Hellebuyck was perfect in his previous start, stopping 28 of 28 shots as he blanked Nashville for his fourth shutout of the season last game. The 29-year-old has been fantastic yet again on pace for his sixth straight season finishing above a .910 SV%, with his 35-25-2 record, 2.53 GAA and .919 SV%. He takes on the lowly San Jose Sharks, who have lost three straight and are 25th in the NHL in goals per game (2.89).
