How confident are you in Connor Hellebuyck? Does the Jets defence deserve their share of the blame? How have the Blues shut down Mark Scheifele in the last two games? Jets colour commentator Kevin Sawyer joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss.

Jets should of got a real 2nd line center should of got ryan o riely from nashville and some help on the wing 🤣🤣
Jets will lose at home and get blown out back in St Louis.
Jets suck. Hellebuyck sucks.
Let's go Blues!
I’m from Nebraska and don’t like either team. It sure seems like there’s been a lot of miracle tipped goals for St Louis? That shot yesterday was 5 feet off net and hit the defenseman and went in. There’s been some luck involved also with these inflated scores.
life long Jets fan
i have 100% confidence the series is over
Halleybuck is very overrated. Hes a product of good team defense. He sits on the goal line and cant see the puck through traffic. goal line sitters never succeed in the playoffs. Its too easy to take their eyes away
Looks like on that one highlight goal at 1:08 a Blue was blatently in the crease not close, completely in on his own accord and someone else scores so why was that not disallowed.
Sawyer said it best. The saves Helly usually makes he isn't making. That's the difference in this series.
Time to part ways with hellebuyck. Why not start Eric Comrie for 1 game? What’s to lose?
He gets one more shot. If he gets blown out he’s done in the playoffs and as a Jet. No point keeping him around if he can’t win in the playoffs.
He would be best suited for a team trying to get back to the playoffs. Aka Red Wings, Flyers etc…
The team will also need a retooling. Some leadership players are just not stepping up.
Hellebuyck may win the vezna and MVp, but Binnington is the better goalie. He proved it in the 4 nations and is proving it again. Vezina is regular season. Binnington is playoffs.
Hellofachoker can't stop a puck if their lives depend on it. To answer the question, No, I have no confidence in this team as a whole at all. Seen this crap 1 too many times. This series is over, blues in 6. Honestly, I'd rather see comrie in the net. But then again. I ain't watching this anymore. I've seen it all before.
keep hearing how the jets have the best defense and goaltending in the nhl lol
Stolarz is the best goalie right now
100% right Kev, in the playoffs everyone one the team has to be willing to run through a wall to win, only one team is doing that. Too many fly-bys and swinging sticks at pucks, by the Jets, instead of making the hit. That pressure and physicality creates mistakes from your opponent. There’s no ferocity from Winnipeg, the playoffs are a war of attrition and St. Louis has been winning the battles.
LGB!!!!
Hellebuyck is way overrated and overpaid.
Blues head coach learned two years in Boston that setting an NHL regular season points was meaningless.
LET’S GO BLUES!!!
I have confidence that the Blues are going to beat hellebuyck in Winnipeg
Regular Season: Hellebuyck
Playoffs: Helle Keller
Show the fuck up boys. Whiteout might make or break this team, St. Louis is the team to beat. LFG Jets!
Jets fan here, Blues in six.
Blues ae playing NHL Hockey while the Jets are playing WPHL Hockey!! Time to grow a set and man up!!
In my opinion, the worst part about watching the Jets on TV is having too listen to Kevin Sawyer talk, talk, talk all the time. Yikes
People who watched the blues consistently this season aren’t surprised by their performance. Even when they were losing, there were hints. Montgomery finally put it together.
There should be a Vezina-type award given to the best goaltender in the playoffs.
Jets are bending over backward to make excuses for Hellebuyck who seems to have a fragile ego which cracks in playoffs. At this point the Jets are desperate enough to change goalies unlike last year where they stuck with Hellebuyck and lost. Looks like deja vu in 2025. Humiliation beckons.
Poor officiating has dictated the outcome……
The proof is in the performance. Hellybuyck had shown that he can’t perform in the Playoffs for whatever reason. I have little confidence that he will turn this around.
Hellebuyck backed the team to the 3rd round in 2018. I'm not sure what's going on for him at the moment, but you can't say he is not a playoff goalie despite the past two games and the series against Colorado. He has been a playoff goalie and he can be again. His SV% for his first 4 playoff appearances: 9.22, 9.13, 9.04, 9.31. Over that period, Binnington's SV% was significantly lower, even in the year the Blues won the cup.
