Goaltender Connor Hellebuyck can grab the No. 1 spot and run with it based on his overall numbers.
The start of a new National Hockey League season brings hope to fans whether their favourite team deserves it or not. Last year I was skeptical at best about the chances of the Winnipeg Jets having a successful season. There was lots of bravado, but the club had a thin lineup that needed a miracle for success to happen. We know how that worked out.
A year later they have a much better outlook after a good off-season.
