Winnipeg Jets News

The Jets will likely turn to Hellebuyck between the pipes for a third straight game on Thursday against division rivals, the Colorado Avalanche. After slightly faltering from his Vezina-caliber campaign, allowing four or more goals in two of three games, Hellebuyck responded with a 21-save shutout victory in his previous outing, his second this season. The 31-year-old Hellebuyck has a tremendous 2.10 GAA and .923 SV% through 10 games (9-1-0). The Jets enter the action on Thursday as -137 home favorites against an Avalanche club that will have Alexandar Georgiev in net for only the second time in the past three weeks.

The Oilers have been very liberal with their goalie rotation lately, splitting starts over the past two weeks, and will turn to Skinner between the pipes on Wednesday for his third start in the past six games. The 26-year-old Skinner has been highly inconsistent this season, represented by an unappealing 3.31 GAA and .811 SV%. That said, Skinner was excellent in his last outing, saving 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) in a 4-2 win over the Calgary Flames. The Oilers enter the action on Wednesday as -137 home favorites against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Despite being one of the league's top netminders to start the 2024-25 season, Hellebuyck has faced some adversity lately, allowing four or more goals in two of his last three but has salvaged a 2-1-0 record. That said, those two blips have been minor in an otherwise Vezina-worthy season, as Hellebuyck boasts a stellar 2.33 GAA and .917 SV% through nine games (8-1-0). The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -197 home favorites against the Utah Hockey Club, losers of five of their last six (1-3-2).

After a one-game absence, Thrun will re-enter the Sharks lineup on Thursday night against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 23-year-old Thrun is averaging 16:16 time-on-ice and has one point (0G / 1A), 12 blocks, seven hits, and a -9 plus/minus through 10 games this season.

After suffering their first loss of the season on Monday, 6-4 at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Jets will attempt to return to the win column on Wednesday against the Detroit Red Wings with Hellebucyk back between the pipes. Hellebuyck is coming off his worst outing of the season, allowing five goals on 35 shots (.857 SV%), his first sub- .900 SV% appearance, but is still boasting an excellent 2.14 GAA and .925 SV% through seven games this season (6-1-0). The Jets enter the action on Wednesday as -143 road favorites against a Red Wings club averaging only 2.7 goals per game.

Phillips is yet to play in an NHL game this season. In 33 games with the Blackhawks last season, he registered 0 goals and 6 assists. The 23-year-old was a fifth-round pick of the Blackhawks in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.

The Jets, the only undefeated team in the NHL this season (8-0-0), have given Hellebuyck the night off in two of the last four contests but will return to their All-Star netminder on Monday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Hellebuyck has been outstanding to start the 2024-25 season, making an early-season case to win back-to-back Vezina trophies, posting a stellar 1.66 GAA and .940 SV% in six games (6-0-0). The Jets enter action on Monday as slight -110 home favorites against the Maple Leafs.

On the tail end of a back-to-back set, Skinner will return to the crease for the Oilers on Monday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets. After allowing five goals on 13 shots (.615 SV%) in a 6-0 loss to the Winnipeg Jets in their first game of the season, Skinner has allowed three or fewer goals in each of his last five outings, including a 27-save shutout on Friday in a 4-0 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Oilers enter the action on Monday as -241 road favorites against the Blue Jackets.

Skinner took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 33 shots in a 3-2 overtime defeat to the Hurricanes. The 26-year-old netminder has struggled to open the season, posting a 1-3-1 record and an .866 SV% through five appearances. Luckily for Skinner, he's got a great opportunity to get back in the win column on Friday night. He draws a great matchup as the Oilers enter action as sizable favourites at -230.
