Odessa Texas to Winnipeg Manitoba. Bet that was an interesting transition. Man has been a rock for the jets. If he gets a hot streak going in the playoffs, look out! I think he is the kind of goalie who could steal a series, if not more.

Awesome goalie. Appreciate what he brings for the Jets. Hopefully a good run this year.

Yeah like Vegas did to us in the conference finals. I think Hellebuyck is at that level now especially with all that he gained from that experience.
