Hellebuyck not pressed in debut

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Grand Larceny? Hardly.

You’d be hard-pressed to even find a misdemeanour, but it was an important day all the same for Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck.

Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck stops a shot by the Minnesota Wild during the first period of an NHL hockey game in St. Paul, Minn., Friday.

The 22-year-old made his first NHL appearance Friday afternoon against the Minnesota Wild and had but 14 saves to make to help the Jets to a 3-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild.

How little did Hellebuyck have to do?
