After hitting a bit of a skid in the last couple weeks of November when they lost four of six games, the Jets have turned it around to win four straight heading into Friday’s matchup against the St. Louis Blues, averaging over four goals per game in the process.
They’ve needed that goal support because, outside of Tuesday’s win over the Islanders, they have allowed three or more against in seven of their last nine games. As it is any time a team allows a lot of goals over a short stretch, many are looking straight at Connor Hellebuyck and expecting him to shut the door, going forward.
