The Jets gave Hellebuyck his first day off of the season on Sunday but will return to the All-Star netminder on Tuesday against the St. Louis Blues. The 31-year-old Hellebuyck is making an early-season case to win his third Vezina trophy, boasting an immaculate 1.25 GAA and .952 SV% through four games (4-0-0).

The Jets are one of three teams without a loss this season and enter Friday's contest as gargantuan -373 home favorites against the Sharks.
