Hellberg agreed to terms on a three-year contract with Djurgardens IF on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellberg spent the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Texas, logging 41 regular-season games for the minor-league club in which he posted a 24-14-1 record, .904 save percentage and 2.69 GAA. Despite the solid numbers, Hellberg was on the NHL roster for just one game this past year as he was firmly cemented behind Casey DeSmith as the No. 3 netminder. Given the length of his deal, this move all but spells the end of Hellberg's NHL career, with the Swedish backstop set to eventually retire having played in 26 NHL games for the Predators, Rangers, Red Wings, Senators and Penguins.

Hellberg was assigned to AHL Texas on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Hellberg was the backup goalie behind Jake Oettinger in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over St. Louis. The 33-year-old Hellberg's return to the minors may bode well for the availability of Casey DeSmith (illness) ahead of Monday's home matchup against Washington.

EDGE Analysis
The Stars could need a backup goaltender Saturday against St. Louis because Casey DeSmith missed practice Friday with the flu. Hellberg was 9-3-1 with a 3.08 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 13 AHL games before his recall.

In 26 career NHL appearances, he has an 8-8-1 record with a 3.08 GAA and an .890 save percentage. He will likely begin the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Texas, with Jake Oettinger and Casey DeSmith expected to start the year as Dallas' goaltenders.

Hellberg will guard the road goal in Monday's preseason matchup against the Avalanche, according to Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Hellberg will play two periods, and Remi Poirier will enter the contest in the third frame. The 33-year-old Hellberg appeared in 27 AHL regular-season contests between Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Charlotte in 2023-24. In 26 career NHL appearances, he has an 8-8-1 record with a 3.08 GAA and an .890 save percentage. He will likely begin the 2024-25 campaign in the minors because he ranks behind Jake Oettinger and Casey DeSmith on the Dallas depth chart.
