Re: Hellebuyck
As I have said many times, he's a young goalie who should still be in the AHL IMO but the Jets want to bring him along at their own pace in the NHL. That's their choice. Most young goalies don't start to hit their stride until they are 25-26 years of age at best. Some take longer. Hard to say where Hellebuyck fits in there.
The fact that the Jets do not have a great defensive system doesn't help Hellebuyck. Until that improves, Hellebuyck will be a hit and miss goalie IMO. Thankfully the Jets still have a couple seasons to work on that. They still consider themselves a rebuilding team anyway so it's not like they are too worried about it right now.
The skill for Hellebuyck is there but the team isn't there yet. Patience is required with ANY young goalie. Just don't expect great things early on.
