Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
It was not a typical night for the former Vezina Trophy winner. Hellebuyck was the less busy of the two netminders but still allowed two even-strength goals, a shorthanded marker and a power-play tally late in the third that ended up being the game-winner. Prior to this contest, Hellebuyck did not allow more than three goals in his last four starts. He is still a proven top-tier goalie in fantasy as he still leads the NHL in save percentage and GAA.

Hellebuyck will be in net Tuesday at home against Seattle, per Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck hasn't disappointed this year, posting a .924 save percentage and a 29-12-3 record. He is currently the favorite to win the Vezina Trophy, which is partly why the Jets are tied for first place in the Western Conference. The 30-year-old will look to take advantage of Seattle being in the second game of a back-to-back set.

Incredibly, Hellebuyck has given up more than three goals in a game only twice since the beginning of November, and on the season he ranks among the league leaders in wins (29), GAA (2.25) and save percentage (.924).
