Connor Hellebuyck Shuts The Door On Stars In Game 5
Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck made history in Thursday's 4-0 win against the Dallas Stars, becoming the first netminder in franchise history to record a shutout while facing elimination. He stopped 22 pucks to earn his second shutout of the matchup. Tim Thomas and Mike Richter were so far the only U.S.-born goaltenders to post multiple shutouts in two separate playoff series. It has truly been a Jekyll and Hyde playoff campaign for Hellebuyck, who boasts back-to-back home shutouts but has struggled massively on the road. Next up, the Jets badly need a big away performance from Hellebuyck, as they will be facing elimination again on Saturday in Dallas. Hellebuyck owns a 0-5 road record in the postseason and has allowed 5.84 goals with a .793 save percentage.
