Hard-hitting Jets who deserve a little more love
Connor Hellebuyck and Blake Wheeler are heading to the NHL all-star weekend, while their Winnipeg Jets teammates enjoy a few days off.
Some players aren’t talked about much, but deserve recognition for their contributions to the team’s successful season. I’ll get to those individuals in a bit.
Prior to Thursday’s game against the Anaheim Ducks, Hellebuyck was cruising along with a .924 save percentage and has been a brick wall on most nights.
His excellent positioning has the opposition shooting wide or high often.
