Hellberg was recalled from AHL Hartford on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Hellberg is up on emergency recall, as their No. 1 goalie Henrik Lundqvist sustained an eye injury in Wednesday night's Game 1 loss against the Penguins. The 25-year-old netminder has little experience in the NHL, appearing in just two games in the last two seasons, but has earned a 30-20-3 record with a 2.40 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 53 appearances with AHL Hartford this season. The duration of Hellberg's stay will probably depend on the severity of Lundqvist's injury--watch for updates on his status soon.

Hellburg was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Up on an emergency basis with Henrik Lundqvist (neck) sidelined, Hellberg's return to the AHL all but confirms the Rangers' star netminder will be available next contest Saturday. Hellberg didn't see any action with the Rangers, and will now return to an organizational depth role with the AHL affiliate, where he owns a 22-16-2 record with a 2.39 GAA and .919 save percentage this season.

Hellberg was recalled from AHL Hartford on an emergency basis Sunday, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Henrik Lundqvist (neck) was able to face shots and skate Sunday morning, but Hellberg's recall suggests the Rangers aren't confident that the The King will be able to suit up during the tilt with the Islanders later in the evening. With that in mind, look for Hellberg to serve as the backup to Anttii Raanta, but don't expect Hellberg's stay with the Rangers to last long, as Lundqvist's neck issue doesn't seem to be a long-term concern.

Hellberg was reassigned to AHL Hartford on Saturday, Newsday's Steve Zipay reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hellberg's demotion indicates that Henrik Lundqvist (neck) will likely be available for Sunday's home matchup with the Islanders. The former second-round pick has been decent in the minors this season, compiling a 22-16-0 record with a 2.39 GAA and .919 save percentage in 40 appearances with AHL Hartford.

Hellberg was called up Friday to back up Antti Raanta against the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Henrik Lundqvist sustained an apparent neck injury in Thursday night's game against the Penguins, prompting Hellberg's promotion to the parent club with the team going right back to work Friday. Hellberg has been sent in the crease 40 times with AHL Hartford this season, crafting a 22-16-2 record, 2.39 GAA and .919 save percentage.

Hellberg will be rejoining AHL Hartford after a brief stay with the Rangers, Steve Zipay of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hellberg only saw action once in relief of starter Henrik Lundqvist, allowing two goals on six shots. The 24-year-old netminder has been serviceable for Hartford this season, registering a 8-8-0 record for the Wolfpack. This move means that regular backup Antti Raanta (head) is likely to return following the holiday break.

Hellberg allowed two goals on six shots after entering in the third period of Sunday's loss to the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Hellberg was recalled Friday after backup Antti Raanta suffered a head injury and was pressed into action after starter Henrik Lundqvist allowed five goals in the opening two frames. It was just the second career appearance for the 24-year-old, but he doesn't figure to get much ice time.

Hellberg was recalled from AHL Hartford on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Hellberg has received his first NHL recall after Antti Raanta suffered a head injury during Thursday's game against Minnesota. Hellberg will likely serve as a backup to Henrik Lundqvist for the duration of his recall, unless Raanta's injury ends up being long term.

Hellberg was assigned to Hartford of the AHL this past weekend reports Steve Zipay of Newsday.

EDGE Analysis

No big surprise here as Antti Raanta wins the battle of the Scandinavians for the role of Henrik Lundqvist's back-up man. Hellberg was decent in limited preseason action, pushing aside 21 of 25 shots faced in two games played. With Mackenzie Skapski (hip) still recovering, Hellberg will most likely contend with Cedrick Desjardins for Hartford's number one goaltender and will remain on speed dial in case of injury at the NHL level.

After stopping 12 of 14 shots against New Jersey on Monday, Hellberg will start Tuesday's tilt against Philadelphia, reports reports Andrew Gross of The Record.

EDGE Analysis

Headed into Monday's exhibition, Hellberg was the dark horse between himself and Antti Raanta for the team's back-up goaltender gig. While both goaltenders played well, the starting nod for Hellberg in Tuesday's game really seems more like good posturing by the team's coaching staff than any definitive sign of who is the favorite to win the job. Those owners in more custom formats will want to monitor this situation closely.
