Hellebuyck skates for the first time
According to Arniel, Connor Hellebuyck skated for the first time since undergoing a minor arthroscopic knee procedure on Nov. 22. He’s still a ways away from returning to full team practices, but it’s a positive sign to see him back on the ice.
#NHLJets head coach Scott Arniel said Connor Hellebuyck skated for the first time since his surgery today.
No real timeline until the goaltender gets into full practices, but obviously an encouraging sign.
