Connor Hellebuyck to start between the pipes Thursday for Winnipeg

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck will man the crease on Thursday for the Jets' road clash with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

What It Means:

Hellebuyck has struggled in his sophomore season so far, going 18-15-1 through 36 starts. His .910 save percentage and 2.77 goals-against average are both steps back from last year's rookie campaign.

Our models project Hellebuyck for 28.3 saves, 3.0 goals against and a 44.0 percent chance of scoring a win against the Penguins tonight. He is our 10th-ranked goalie on the day's eight-game slate.
