Jets Coach Criticizes Devils' Decision Not to Play Connor Hellebuyck in Winnipeg
The Devils will rest Connor Hellebuyck in Winnipeg and brought up Drew Commesso after the goalie move last night.
- On Tuesday, the New Jersey Devils will start goaltender Jake Allen against the Winnipeg Jets, holding newly acquired Connor Hellebuyck out of the lineup.
- Before being traded to New Jersey on October 23rd, Hellebuyck spent 11 years with the Jets, and the organization hoped this game would provide closure for fans.
- Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel questioned the decision, saying he is 'not sure how analytics factored' into sitting the former league MVP.
- The Devils recalled goaltender Drew Commesso from Rockford to provide depth as the team prepares for the upcoming matchup against Winnipeg.
- Arniel noted the absence 'only prolongs a situation' that has hung over the organization since the summer, preventing players and fans from moving past the trade.
