There are few teams in the National Hockey League -- perhaps no other team -- better positioned to respond to the loss of their starting goaltender than the Winnipeg Jets.
With an injured Ondrej Pavelec out of the lineup for at least a game -- and his long-term prognosis uncertain -- the Jets collectively shrugged their shoulders Sunday and moved up the next guy on an almost embarrassingly deep goalie depth chart.
The next guy in this case, Connor Hellebuyck, didn't have to go far -- just a couple of steps across the hallway is all it takes these days for someone to go from the AHL's Manitoba Moose to the NHL's Jets.
