Connor Hellebuyck is penciled in to start at home Saturday night against the Devils

Hellebuyck is penciled in to start at home Saturday night against the Devils, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

Analysis:

Hellebuyck is firmly entrenched as the starting goalie for Winnipeg as the result of Ondrej Pavelec (knee) spraining his knee two months ago and still not ready to return. The rookie has largely impressed, turning in a 2.06 GAA and .930 save percentage in 20 starts. Hellebuyck could be in store for a light workload since the Devils put up a league-low 24.3 shots per game, on average.
