NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Another virtuoso performance by goaltender Connor Hellebuyck has the Winnipeg Jets four wins away from a berth in the Stanley Cup Final.
His playoff excellence comes on the heels of an outstanding season that saw the 24-year-old Michigan native become a finalist for the Vezina Trophy and set a record for U.S.-born goalies by winning 44 regular-season games.
