Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Will see Cats for first time

Hellebuyck will cover the cage Thursday night for a home date with the Panthers, Jeff Hamilton of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Analysis:

This will be Hellebuyck's first time facing the Panthers in his young career. Florida's offense is not exactly dangerous -- it's ranked 26th at 2.30 goals per game -- but the burly backstop will need to keep a close eye on center Jonathan Marchessault, who has already amassed 20 points in his first go-around with the club. Hellebuyck has fashioned a 7-4-1 record, 2.36 GAA and .907 save percentage in 13 home starts this season, giving fantasy poolies at least a rough idea of what to expect in this next one.
