Take a moment and think of the NHL’s best goaltenders. You know, the ones whose teams pencil their guy in for 55 starts every year. Durable. Consistent.

Connor Hellebuyck turned away 24 shots, and both Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele scored their 29th goals of the season to put them into second place in the goal-scoring race during the Winnipeg Jets' 4-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Kyle Connor scored twice and Connor Hellebuyck made 24 saves as the Winnipeg Jets won their fourth in a row, 4-1 over the Montreal Canadiens.

Hellebuyck stopped 24 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens. Hellebuyck was caught flat-footed by Juraj Slafkovsky midway through the first period then shut the door. He kicked off Winnipeg's three-game road trip with his third consecutive win and seventh in the last eight starts.

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck is in the driver’s seat to win his second straight Vezina Trophy and third overall, but he has also now put himself firmly in the conversation to be the NHL’s MVP.

Hellebucyk is expected to tend the road twine versus the Canadiens on Tuesday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

Analyzing Thursday’s Winnipeg Jets at Boston Bruins odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

By traditional goaltending standards, Connor Hellebuyck should not be one of the best goalies in the NHL. He’s not an elite skater, he doesn’t have elite reflexes or flexibility, he doesn’t even really have great save selection.

The Boston Bruins host the Winnipeg Jets this evening at TD Garden, and the NHL odds list Winnipeg as a -132 favorite. Winnipeg is in tremendous form, winning eight of its past 11 games. Six of those eight wins have come by at least a two-goal margin, and my Jets vs. Bruins predictions expect this trend to continue in Boston.
