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.

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 31-year-old Hellebuyck is making an early-season case to win his third Vezina trophy, boasting an immaculate 1.25 GAA and .952 SV% through four games (4-0-0).

Logan Stanley (knee) has been activated from Injured Reserve and will make his season debut on Sunday afternoon, replacing Fleury in the lineup. Fleury had played all four games for the Jets thus far, recording five shots on goal and two hits.

Haydn Fleury will be a healthy scratch on Sunday afternoon, allowing Stanley to make his season debut after undergoing knee surgery in September. The 26-year-old Stanely played 25 games with the Jets last season, tallying two points (1G / 1A), 40 blocks, and 45 hits.

David Gustafsson will make his season debut for the Jets on Sunday, sending Kupari to the press box as a healthy scratch. Kupari played 10:43 time-on-ice in Winnipeg's 8-3 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Friday, recording two shots on goal, two hits, and a -1 plus/minus.

Rasmus Kupari will be a healthy scratch on Sunday afternoon, allowing Gustafsson to draw back into the lineup for his season debut. The 24-year-old Gustafsson had seven points (3G / 4A) in 39 games with the Jets last season.

The Jets are the only team remaining without a loss this season (4-0-0) and will turn to Comrie between the pipes for his first start. The 29-year-old Comrie recorded a subpar 3.69 GAA and .874 SV% during 10 games in the 2023-24 campaign as a member of the Buffalo Sabres (2-7-0). The Jets have been off to a blistering start, outscoring their opposition 18-5 during this season-opening four-game winning streak, and enter action against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday afternoon as -159 home favorites.

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.

With Alec Martinez (lower-body) being placed on Injured Reserve, the Blackhawks have recalled Phillips from the Rockford IceHogs (AHL). The 23-year-old Phillips set a career-high in games played last season, scoring six points (0G / 6A) in 33 games with the Blackhawks.

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. The 31-year-old Hellebuyck has led the league in appearances amongst goalies in four of the last seven seasons and is expected to be amongst the leaders again this season. 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.
