Hellebuyck was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Sunday, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

Analysis:

Hellebuyck has been sufficient in net for AHL Manitoba so far this season, posting a 2.41 GAA and .927 save percentage. He'll join the team following a lower-body injury to Ondrej Pavelec that left the netminder on crutches following Saturday's game. While Hellebuyck will serve as the team's second netminder should Pavelec miss any period of time, it seems unlikely that he will see many starting nods between the pipes.
