Take a moment and think of the NHL’s best goaltenders. You know, the ones whose teams pencil their guy in for 55 starts every year. Durable. Consistent.
Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck is in the driver’s seat to win his second straight Vezina Trophy and third overall, but he has also now put himself firmly in the conversation to be the NHL’s MVP.
The Winnipeg Jets are right in the mix to allow the league's fewest goals and win the Jennings Trophy for the second-straight season.
Kyle Connor scored twice and Connor Hellebuyck made 24 saves as the Winnipeg Jets won their fourth in a row, 4-1 over the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night. Mark Scheifele also scored and Rasmus Kupari added an empty-net goal.
Hellebucyk is expected to tend the road twine versus the Canadiens on Tuesday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
The Jets have one of the most prolific top lines in the NHL — with only Leon Draisaitl having more goals this season than Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele (29) — and Gabe Vilardi on pace to shatter his career-best (23) with 22 already notched.
The Montreal Canadiens hosted the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday night, hoping to return to the win column and continue their steady climb up the NHL standings.
