Hellebuyck will start against the Kraken on Thursday.

The Jets have outscored their opposition 9-1 during a two-game winning streak and will roll with Hellebucyk between the pipes on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken.

The Jets enter Tuesday's contest as -152 home favorites against a Vancouver Canucks squad coming off an impressive 3-0 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs.
