Hellebuyck's expected to start Sunday's home game against Arizona, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck has allowed at least three goals in 12 of his last 13 starts, but the other outing over that stretch was a shutout win over Vegas. The Coyotes average the third-fewest goals per game (2.58) and allow the fifth-most (3.56), so this is a good time to deploy Hellebuyck, despite his recent shortcomings.

Hellebuyck made 28 saves on 32 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Senators on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck could not maintain any momentum from his shutout against Vegas on March 22, allowing three unanswered goals in the second period to go down 4-1. The 28-year-old netminder is now 6-4-1 in March.

Hellebuyck will defend the blue paint during Thursday's home game versus the Senators, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck was fantastic in his last start Tuesday versus Vegas, stopping all 42 shots he faced en route to a 4-0 win and his fourth shutout of the year. He'll try to extend his personal winning streak to three games in a favorable home matchup with a struggling Ottawa team that's lost five of its last six contests.

Hellebuyck made 42 saves on 42 shots in a 4-0 win over the Golden Knights on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck has had his work cut out for him of late, making 32 or more saves in each of his last four starts. The 28-year-old netminder is up to 23-22-9 on the season, with a 2.96 GAA and a .911 save percentage.

Hellebuyck will patrol the blue paint versus Vegas at home Tuesday, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck struggled during the early part of 2022 but has gone 5-3-1 with a 3.65 GAA in nine March contests. If the Jets are going to move into a playoff spot in the Western Conference, they are going to need the netminder to continue finding ways to secure wins and would benefit from him finding the form that saw him take home the Vezina Trophy back in 2019-20.

Hellebuyck stopped 32 of 36 shots in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck didn't have the best of games, but the Jets' offense was strong enough to cover another shaky outing. Through nine starts in March, he's allowed four goals six times and three goals in his other three outings. The American netminder improved to 22-22-9, but his 3.01 GAA and .908 save percentage are far from encouraging marks through 53 games. The Jets begin a home stand Tuesday against the Golden Knights.

Hellebuyck stopped 41 of 44 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The Jets' defense did him no favors, but Hellebuyck also wasn't particularly sharp, getting caught too far out of his net on a Trent Frederic tally in the second period and then failing to control rebound on Taylor Hall's game-winner in the third. Hellebuyck has put tremendous pressure on the Winnipeg offense by giving up at least three goals in 10 straight starts, going 4-4-2 over that stretch with a rough 3.78 GAA and .890 save percentage.

Hellebuyck will start against visiting Boston on Friday, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite having back-to-back wins, Hellebuyck has been anything but brilliant lately, turning in a 3.98 GAA and .878 save percentage over a 4-3-1 stretch. He'll need to be better Friday against a Bruins squad that's 7-2-1 in the last 10 games and owns a 19-9-3 road record.

Hellebuyck made 35 saves in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Hellebuyck was staked to a 5-1 lead through two periods, and after the Golden Knights managed to pull within two in the third, Winnipeg's offense whirred back to life to pull away again. He's allowed either three or four goals in each of his last seven starts, but Winnipeg's potent offense has helped Hellebuyck post a solid 4-2-1 record over that stretch.
