Comrie stopped all four shots he faced in relief of Connor Hellebuyck in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Blues in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
This was Comrie's third relief appearance in the postseason. He's allowed just one goal on 13 shots over those three outings, which total 42:59 of ice time. Hellebuyck's ongoing road struggles have taken the headlines in the first round, but there's virtually no chance the Jets will turn to Comrie for Game 7 on Sunday in Winnipeg.

Comrie stopped all six shots he faced in relief of Connor Hellebuyck in Sunday's 5-1 loss to the Blues in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie made a second straight relief appearance after another poor start from Hellebuyck. The Jets have squandered a 2-0 series lead, but Murat Ates of The Athletic reports head coach Scott Arniel is still expressing confidence in Hellebuyck. That likely means Comrie will begin Wednesday's Game 5 watching from the bench again as the Jets try to pull out of their recent tailspin.

Comrie stopped two of three shots he faced in relief of Connor Hellebuyck in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Blues in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie gave up a goal to Colton Parayko after entering for mop-up duty in the blowout loss. Comrie isn't expected to play often in the postseason unless Hellebuyck is injured, though the occasional relief appearance could happen. Comrie was 9-10-1 with a 2.39 GAA and a .914 save percentage over 20 regular-season contests.

Comrie stopped 35 of 38 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Both teams were at less than full strength, but the Jets resting two of their top defenseman didn't make things easy for Comrie. He faced a lot of shots and wasn't able to keep enough pucks out, taking his second loss in four starts. The 29-year-old dropped to 9-10-1 on the year with a 2.39 GAA and a .914 save percentage over 20 starts. The Jets' regular-season finale is at home Wednesday versus the Ducks, and it's not yet clear if head coach Scott Arniel will give Comrie another look or let Connor Hellebuyck get a final tune-up before the postseason.

Comrie will tend the home twine Sunday versus the Oilers, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie posted a 26-save shutout in his last start against the Golden Knights on April 3. The 29-year-old has a 9-9-1 record, 2.36 GAA and .914 save percentage over 19 appearances this season. The Jets are on the second half of a back-to-back after defeating Chicago 5-4 in a shootout Saturday, while the Oilers last played Friday.

Comrie posted a 26-save shutout in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie gave Connor Hellebuyck a breather in a tough locale and then proceeded to steal the show. This was the fourth shutout of Comrie's career, two of which have come this season as he continues to play well in the backup role for the Jets. The 29-year-old is now 9-9-1 with a 2.36 GAA and a .914 save percentage over 19 appearances, which matches his career high. He'll likely get another start or two over the Jets' final six regular-season games to help keep Hellebuyck fresh for the playoffs. He needs one more appearance and two more wins to set career highs in each category.

Comrie is set to start on the road against Vegas on Thursday, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie has an 8-9-1 record, 2.49 GAA and .909 save percentage across 18 appearances in 2024-25. He's used primarily when Winnipeg wants to give Connor Hellebuyck a breather, and Comrie consequently appeared in just three March games. The 29-year-old Comrie is drawing a tough assignment against the Golden Knights, who rank fifth in the NHL in goals per game with 3.39.

Comrie (personal) was on the ice for the morning skate, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press, which indicates he'll be available to back up Connor Hellebuyck against the Kings on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie was reported to have stayed in Winnipeg while awaiting the birth of his child, but he'll seemingly be available Tuesday after joining the team on the ice in Los Angeles. Chris Driedger was brought up from AHL Manitoba on Monday in the event that Comrie was unavailable in the short term, so Winnipeg had a backup plan in place behind Connor Hellebuyck.

Comrie is going to remain in Winnipeg ahead of Tuesday's road game versus the Kings for the birth of his child, Murat Ates of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Comrie unavailable to serve as the backup against Los Angeles, the Jets recalled Chris Driedger from AHL Manitoba on Monday. The team didn't immediately provide an update on whether Comrie would rejoin the team later in its three-game road trip, but with no back-to-backs on the short-term schedule, he may not miss any starts regardless.

Comrie stopped 12 of 16 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Comrie had won his previous two starts, but he wasn't able to extend that run, and he delivered a subpar showing in this contest by any standard you want to look at it. This was the first game he posted a save percentage below the .860 mark -- it's not like he's been having a woeful season, so fantasy managers shouldn't overreact to just one bad game from a backup netminder. Depending on how the playoff race shakes out, Comrie should get at least one or two more starts before the end of the regular season, though his workload is likely to depend on how the Jets want to approach giving Connor Hellebuyck rest heading into the postseason.
