Hellebuyck will return to the crease after Laurent Brossoit played in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Vegas. The 30-year-old Hellebuyck has 1-2-0 record this season, having given up 13 goals on 83 shots. Edmonton has surprisingly registered just 2.75 goals per game this campaign.

Hellebuyck stopped 24 of 29 shots in the Jets' 5-1 loss to the Kings on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After blanking the Kings in the first period, Hellebuyck proceeded to allow five straight goals to take his second loss of the season. The American netminder has struggled out the gate, allowing at least four goals in all three of his starts. His next chance to bounce back could come Thursday versus Vegas.

Hellebuyck will guard the home goal versus LA on Tuesday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck has had a rough start to the season, having posted a sub-par 4.07 GAA and .852 save percentage thorugh his first two appearances, but he's gone 1-1-0 over that span thanks to strong goal support from his teammates. He'll try to secure his second win of the season in a home matchup with a Kings team that's gone 0-1-1 to start the campaign.

Hellebuyck made 29 saves in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't the sharpest performance for the 30-year-old, but Hellebuyck made some big stops when he needed to and got plenty of offensive support. With a seven-year contract extension in his back pocket, he's kicked off the season by giving up four goals in each of his first two starts, but No. 2 netminder Laurent Brossoit represents little threat to Hellebuyck's workload -- Winnipeg's top goalie has played more than 60 games in a season four times in his career, including each of the last two campaigns.

Hellebuyck stopped 17 of 21 shots in a 5-3 loss to Calgary on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck surrendered at least a goal in each period and was beaten twice on just eight shots in the first frame. The Flames' final goal was scored on an empty net. It was a rough outing to be sure, but history suggests Hellebuyck is likely to bounce back. The 30-year-old goaltender had a 37-25-2 record, a 2.49 GAA and a .920 save percentage last season.

Hellebuyck inked a seven-year, $59.5 million contract extension with Winnipeg on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck, along with teammate Mark Scheifele, had been the subject of trade rumors, with both players entering the final year of their contracts. Instead, the duo agreed to terms on identical seven-year deals that will keep them as the faces of the franchise for years to come. For his part, Hellebuyck has reached the 60-game mark in four of his last six seasons, the exceptions in that span being the pair of COVID-shortened campaigns. The veteran backstop should continue to be near or atop the games-played leaderboard this season as well, making him a high-value target in fantasy.

Hellebuyck stopped 21 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Vegas did their damage within the first 30 minutes of the game, and the Jets' uninspired effort didn't lead to a comeback. Hellebuyck had a 3.44 GAA and an .886 save percentage over five playoff contests. He's under contract for one more season at a $6.17 million cap hit, though it's unclear what the team in front of him might look like after a disappointing end to the 2022-23 season.
