Hellebuyck will sit out Tuesday's tilt with Ottawa due to a non-COVID illness, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck is expected to accompany the Jets on the road, so there's a chance he could be available to return before the holiday break. Winnipeg plays in Boston on Thursday and visits Washington on Friday. Arvid Holm will back up David Rittich, who will start Tuesday versus the Senators.

Hellebuyck allowed a goal on 23 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

The Canucks' goal was a Bo Horvat deflection on a power play in the third period, well after the Jets had taken control of the contest. Hellebuyck has won eight of his last 10 games, and he's allowed just a single tally in each of his last two outings. The 29-year-old is up to 16-7-1 with a 2.33 GAA and a .928 save percentage through 24 contests overall. He'll likely watch from the bench in Seattle on Sunday with David Rittich expected to handle the second half of a back-to-back, though that's yet to be confirmed by head coach Rick Bowness. Given Hellebuyck's light workload Saturday, it wouldn't be shocking for him to start two days in a row.

The key save kept the score tied at 1-1 with 10:53 remaining in the third period, helping force the extra stanza. Hellebuyck (15-7-1) snapped a two-game losing streak in which he surrendered nine tallies.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck had a rough start against the Golden Knights on Tuesday, giving up five goals on 32 shots. That's two games in a row that he has struggled, as he gave up four goals on 35 shots against Washington on Sunday. He is 14-7-1 with a 2.45 GAA and a .926 save percentage this season, as he was gold before his last two outings. He will face the Predators, who have had trouble finding the back of the net, scoring only 70 times in 27 games.

Hellebuyck stopped 27 of 32 shots in a 6-5 loss to Vegas on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck allowed two power-play goals in the third period, which put Vegas ahead 5-4. William Karlsson then scored on an empty net at 18:36 to increase the Golden Knights' edge to 6-4, before Winnipeg's Mark Scheifele found the back of the net at 19:58. That created an odd case of an empty-netter also being the game-winning goal. Hellebuyck dropped to 14-7-1 with a 2.45 GAA and .926 save percentage in 22 games this season. He's surrendered nine goals on 67 shots over his last two games.

Hellebuyck allowed four goals on 35 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck held the fort in the first and third periods, but surrendering four goals on 15 shots in the middle frame ruined his game. The loss snapped a six-game winning streak for the 29-year-old, who has had very few missteps in an impressive start to the season. He's at 14-6-1 with a 2.33 GAA and a .930 save percentage in 21 starts even after Sunday's defeat. He could be in line for another tough matchup if he starts Tuesday versus the Golden Knights.

Hellebuyck will be between the pipes Sunday when the Jets host the Capitals, per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck has won six straight outings, allowing two goals or fewer in his last five, improving to 14-5-1 with a .932 save percentage. The 29-year-old netminder will look for his seventh consecutive victory against a Washington team that's won its last three contests.

Hellebuyck allowed two goals on 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Hellebuyck won his sixth straight game, and he's allowed two or fewer goals in five of those outings. The Jets' defense was a little stingier than usual, as he's faced 40-plus shots three times during his winning streak, but the extra workload isn't bothering him. The 29-year-old looks like one of the best goalies in the league so far with a 14-5-1 record, a 2.24 GAA and a .932 save percentage through 20 starts. Expect David Rittich to start the second half of a back-to-back when the Jets visit the Blackhawks on Friday.
