Connor Hellebuyck stopped 28 shots and lifted Winnipeg to a critical 2-0 triumph over the Nashville Predators on Saturday. It was his fourth shutout of the season.
“Bucky, he’s a guy that works extremely hard,” said forward Nikolaj Ehlers. “He works hard for this team. He plays hard. He’s a pretty damn good goalie and we’re extremely lucky to have him.
