Hellebuyck’s absence between the pipes should thrust backup netminder Eric Comrie into the No. 1 role until further notice. Prior to the injury, Hellebuyck had posted a 2.51 GAA and .913 save percentage in 14 starts (8-6-0) in the crease so far this season.

Connor Hellebuyck stopped 32 of 33 shots in Monday's 2-1 victory over the Flames. The only puck that got past him was a Rasmus Andersson shot in the second period. Hellebuyck shut the door the rest of the way, allowing the Jets to come back in the third period for their fifth straight team win.

After a shaky season opener, Hellebuyck has been absolutely dominant, winning four consecutive starts.
