Hellebuyck stopped 21 of 24 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Stars in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

Despite an awful first round, Hellebuyck went undefeated on home ice versus the Blues. That won't be the case in the second round, as the Stars won in Winnipeg after Mikko Rantanen scored three times on Hellebuyck in a span of 7:55 during the second period. This wasn't a bad outing by any means, but Hellebuyck will need to tighten things up in Friday's Game 2.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck had a stellar regular season that puts him in prime position to win a second consecutive Vezina Trophy, but he was shaky during the Jets' first-round series against the Blues, going 4-3-0 with a 3.85 GAA and .830 save percentage. However, the 31-year-old will remain in net to begin the second round and should continue to have opportunities to turn things around.

Hellebuyck stopped 26 of 29 shots in Sunday's 4-3 double-overtime win over the Blues in Game 7.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck stayed undefeated on home ice in the playoffs, but it took a late miracle from the Jets. They scored twice in the final minutes with Hellebuyck on the bench for an extra attacker, and the 31-year-old finally had his moment with nearly two full scoreless periods in overtime before Adam Lowry's game-winner. Hellebuyck's 3.85 GAA and .830 save percentage over seven games are the worst numbers of any starting goalie still in the playoffs. He'll turn his attention to a second-round matchup versus the Stars, which begins in Winnipeg on Wednesday.

Hellebuyck will patrol the home crease against St. Louis on Sunday in Game 7, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck allowed five goals on 23 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Blues in Game 6 before Eric Comrie entered the contest in the third period. The 31-year-old Hellebuyck has a dismal 4.42 GAA and a troubling .815 save percentage through six starts this postseason. However, he has won his last three outings in Winnipeg, as the home team has taken every game in the series. The winner of Sunday's matchup will face Dallas in the second round.

Hellebuyck stopped 18 of 23 shots before he was replaced by Eric Comrie in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Blues in Game 6.

EDGE Analysis

The first half of the game made it seem as if Hellebuyck had moved past his road woes. That illusion came crashing down when the Blues tallied four times in a span of 5:23 after the midway mark of the second period. Hellebuyck allowed 16 goals on 66 shots over three contests in St. Louis during this season, and he was pulled from all of those games. Luckily for him, Game 7 on Sunday is on home ice, where he's been noticeably better at 3-0 with seven goals allowed on 58 shots in the first round.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck is 3-2 in the first round, but he's gotten there with an uninspiring 3.96 GAA and an .822 save percentage. He allowed 11 goals on 43 shots in the two previous road games, and he was pulled from both contests. He'll need to be significantly better if the Jets want to avoid Game 7.

Hellebuyck allowed three goals on 19 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Blues in Game 5.

EDGE Analysis

It was far from a dominant performance for the 31-year-old, but the Jets' offense took care of business on home ice. Hellebuyck has allowed at least three goals in four of his five playoff outings this year, despite facing no more than 25 shots in any appearance, though he was pulled from the previous two games. The Jets lead this series 3-2 after Wednesday's win, and if Hellebuyck can overcome his road woes, he can send his team to the second round with a win in Friday's Game 6.

Hellebuyck is expected to start at home against St. Louis in Game 5 on Wednesday, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck was incredible during the regular season, posting a 47-12-3 record, 2.00 GAA and .925 save percentage across 63 appearances. However, he's allowed a staggering 11 goals on 43 shots (.744 save percentage) across his past two starts, which has allowed St. Louis to even the first-round series at 2-2. Hellebuyck surrendered five or more goals on just three occasions during the regular season, so for him to have back-to-back losses of that caliber in the playoffs is quite a departure. This is becoming a theme for Hellebuyck, though -- he has a 4.27 GAA and an .863 save percentage across 14 playoff starts over the last three years despite being one of the league's best regular-season goaltenders over the same span.

Hellebuyck surrendered five goals on 18 shots in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Blues in Game 4.

EDGE Analysis

The Blues put up three goals over a span of 8:08 in the second half of the second period to take control of the game. Hellebuyck came out for the third but was pulled after Robert Thomas scored early in that frame. This was Hellebuyck's second straight early exit from a game, and he's now allowed 15 goals over four first-round contests. He isn't facing a particularly heavy workload, but the Blues have been opportunistic. Even with these struggles, the Jets are unlikely to turn away from Hellebuyck in favor of Eric Comrie for Wednesday's Game 5 on home ice. Head coach Scott Arniel expressed full confidence in Hellebuyck following Sunday's loss, Murat Ates of The Athletic reports.

Hellebuyck will guard the road net Sunday against the Blues in Game 4, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck was shaky in Game 3, allowing six goals on 25 shots in a loss. He'll try to bounce back in Game 4, with the Jets looking to take a 3-1 series lead back to Winnipeg.
