Connor Hellebuyck Frustrates Anaheim With 38 Saves
3 years agoWinnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck had a nice performance against the Ducks on Thursday, saving 38 of 39 shots in a 5-1 victory. He got beaten early by Troy Terry on a power play but went on to make 36 consecutive saves. Hellebuyck improved his record to 1-2-1 with the victory and this was the first game this season in which he allowed fewer than four goals. It's not been a great start for the 28-year-old, but he's one of the better goalie options in fantasy hockey and should start to improve his numbers soon. Although it might take some time, with the Jets not at full strength due to the absences of Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, who are both on the NHL's COVID-19 protocols list.
