Connor Hellebuyck News

The Jets are the only team yet to lose this season (6-0-0) due in part to strong goaltending and will turn to Hellebuyck between the pipes again, his sixth start in seven games. Hellebuyck is making an early-season case to win his third Vezina trophy, boasting an outstanding 1.40 GAA and .948 SV% through five contests (5-0-0). That said, the Jets enter the action on Thursday as minimal -120 road favorites against a Seattle Kraken club sporting a 4-3-0 record.

The Jets gave Hellebuyck his first day off of the season on Sunday but will return to the All-Star netminder on Tuesday against the St. Louis Blues.

The Jets have not played since Sunday and will return to Hellebuyck in the crease for the fourth straight time to start the season when they host the San Jose Sharks on Friday. Last year's Vezina-trophy winner has been outstanding to start the 2024-25 campaign, posting a ridiculous 0.66 GAA and .976 SV% through three games (3-0-0). The Jets are one of three teams without a loss this season and enter Friday's contest as gargantuan -373 home favorites against the Sharks.

As expected, Connor Hellebuyck will take the crease for Winnipeg's third game of the season on Sunday vs. Minnesota. The 31-year-old reigning Vezina Trophy winner has looked in peak form to start the season, with his 2-0-0 record, 0.50 GAA, .928 SV% and one shutout. He will host the Minnesota Wild on Sunday, who is coming off a 5-4 loss to Seattle on Saturday.

Last season's Vezina trophy winner picked up where he left off, saving all 30 shots he faced for a shutout in a dominant 6-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday.

Hellebuyck will return to the crease on Friday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Jets enter action as sizeable -266 home favorites against a Blackhawks team that was defeated 5-2 in their season-opening matchup against the Utah Hockey Club.

Hellebuyck has been away from the team for two days due to a personal family issue but will be ready to start in goal for the Jets' season opener against the Edmonton Oilers. The 31-year-old American netminder was tremendous last season, winning his second Vezina trophy with a 2.39 GAA and .921 SV% in 60 games (37-19-4). That said, Hellebuyck and the Jets will be put to the test in their first game of the season against the high-flying offense of the Stanley Cup runner-ups.

Down 3-1 in their series with the Colorado Avalance, the Jets will turn to Hellebucyk between the pipes in a must-win contest.

The Jets enter action as -220 home favourites.
