Connor Hellebuyck - NHL News & Rumors

Snaps losing skid Hellebuyck stopped 18 fo 20 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Jets.

Impact Hellebuyck finally snapped a five-game losing skid (0-2-3) and posted a strong showing in this win. While he was excellent with Team USA during the Olympics, things haven't been good with the Jets. This was the first time since mid-January that he posted back-to-back games with a save percentage of at least .900. Hellebuyck has gone 1-0-2 with a 2.89 GAA and a .903 save percentage since the league resumed following the Olympics. If Hellebuyck starts against the Lightning on Thursday, he'll look to earn back-to-back wins for the first time since mid-January.

Looking to snap losing skid Hellebuyck will patrol the home blue paint against the Blackhawks on Tuesday, per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.

Impact After allowing at least three goals in six straight games, Hellebuyck turned aside 31 of 33 shots in San Jose on Sunday but didn't come out on the winning side in a 2-1 overtime loss. His play in the 2026 Winter Olympics was stellar, but it's been a rough go with the Jets lately -- he has lost five straight outings (0-2-3) and has just one win in his last 10 starts. Hellebuyck will look to get back on track Tuesday against a Chicago club that is 11-14-4 on the road this season.

Makes 31 saves in OT loss Hellebuyck stopped 31 of 33 shots in Sunday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks.

Impact Hellebuyck's shutout bid ended when Will Smith beat him in the early stages of the third period, and he later allowed Michael Misa's game-winning goal in overtime. All things considered, though, this was a nice step in the right direction for Hellebuyck, who had allowed at least four goals in his previous three outings. The star netminder, who will continue to see the bulk of playing time between the posts for Winnipeg, has gone 1-3-3 with a 3.59 GAA and a subpar .887 save percentage in his last seven starts.

Poised to start Sunday Hellebuyck is slated to guard the road goal against San Jose on Sunday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Impact Winnipeg won't hold a morning skate ahead of Sunday's contest, and Hellebuyck went through his starting routine during Saturday's practice. He is coming off a 35-save effort in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to Anaheim. Hellebuyck has a 13-16-8 record this season with a 2.84 GAA and an .899 save percentage across 37 outings. San Jose sits 18th in the league with 3.04 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign.

Gives up five goals in loss Hellebuyck stopped 35 of 40 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Impact That's not the Team USA defense in front of him anymore, and it showed as Hellebuyck did what he could. The Jets are dealing with a number of injuries on the blue line, which could make things risky for fantasy managers hoping Hellebuyck's Olympic momentum would carry over. He's now 13-16-8 with a 2.84 GAA and an .899 save percentage over 37 contests. He'll likely continue to see a hefty workload, at least until the Jets get mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. They close out their current road trip Sunday in San Jose.

Poised to start Friday Hellebuyck (not injury related) is expected to guard the cage on the road against the Ducks on Friday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Hellebuyck was added back to the Jets' roster ahead of Friday's contest. Before the Olympic break, the 32-year-old netminder was struggling in the crease, going 1-4-3 with a 3.01 GAA in his last eight outings. The backstop is coming off a phenomenal Olympics that saw him secure the gold medal for Team USA. Hellebuyck will look to carry that momentum into the rest of the 2025-26 campaign.
