Connor Hellebuyck News

Hellebuyck will return to the crease on Monday against Jake Oettinger, who he hopes will be his understudy at the upcoming Winter Olympics. The 32-year-old Hellebuyck was solid in his previous game, saving 33 of 36 shots (.917 SV%), but, as has been the case most of the season, the Jets still fell 4-1 to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Dating back to his return from a knee procedure in mid-December, Hellebuyck is posting uncharacteristically concerning numbers: 2.90 GAA and .894 SV in 20 games (5-9-6). The Jets enter Monday's contest as +129 road underdogs against a Dallas Stars team that has won five of its last six games (5-1-0).

Despite losing four of his last five (1-3-1), Hellebuyck has played better lately, posting a 2.40 GAA and .913 SV%. That said, he has not played up to the elite form that has become expected of the three-time Vezina Trophy winner, allowing three or more goals in nine of his last 12 games (4-5-3) while posting a subpar 3.09 GAA and .895 SV%. He will likely return to the crease on Saturday against a Florida Panthers team that he saved 19 of 20 shots (.950 SV%) against in a 2-1 shootout loss two weeks ago.

Hellebuyck saved 26 of 29 shots (.897 SV%) in his most recent outing, a 4-3 win over the New Jersey Devils, which, despite the victory, continued a trend of sub-900 SV% performances. The 32-year-old American goalie, a three-time Vezina Trophy winner, has allowed three or more goals in eight of his last 11 games (4-4-3). The Jets enter the action on Thursday as +162 road underdogs against one of the NHL's hottest teams, the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are 15-1-1 in their last 17 games.

The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as +112 road underdogs against the New Jersey Devils, who have won three of their last four games (3-1-0).

Hellebuyck is on a two-game winning streak, snapping a miserable 10-game losing skid (0-6-4), but has remained unspectacular between the pipes. The 32-year-old Hellebuyck, a three-time Vezina Trophy winner, has a dreadful sub-.900 SV% in 10 consecutive games (2-5-3).

The Jets have the worst record in the NHL since mid-November (5-15-5), but hope their current two-game winning streak is a sign of an upward trend. Hellebuyck, their three-time Vezina Trophy-winning goalie, has not impressed lately as well, posting an ugly 3.33 GAA and .864 SV% in his last nine outings (1-5-3). That said, the Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -121 home favorites against a New York Islanders team that has points in four straight games (3-0-1).

The Jets are coming off a rare victory on Friday, a 5-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings, but it was with Eric Comrie between the pipes. They will turn to Hellebuyck on Saturday against the New Jersey Devils as he attempts to break his own slump. The 32-year-old three-time Vezina Trophy winner has an uncharacteristic 3.14 GAA and .876 SV% in his last 10 games (0-6-4).

The Jets went 3-8-1 in 12 games with Hellebuyck sidelined due to a knee injury, but unfortunately for them, their struggles have continued since Hellebuyck's return. The 32-year-old goalie has just one win since returning to the lineup in mid December, posting a 2.84 GAA and .886 SV% through 10 games (1-5-4). The Jets enter the action on Thursday as +102 home underdogs against an Oilers team coming off a 6-2 win over the Nashville Predators.
