Hellebuyck will be in goal on the road versus Edmonton on Thursday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Hellebuyck will be going for his 40th win of the season, a threshold he hasn't reached since the 2017-18 campaign when he racked up 44 wins. Unless the Jets decide to heavily rest Hellebuyck down the stretch, he could set a new personal best in wins as well as shutouts. At this point, Hellebuyck is a near-lock to take home the Vezina Trophy.
Schenn notched an assist, eight hits and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.
The 35-year-old defenseman, a former Canuck, was able to get his first point as a Jet against one of his old teams. This was Schenn's first helper in four games for Winnipeg after a pair of trades sent him from the Predators to the Penguins and then the Jets. This season, the heavy-hitting blueliner has just six points to go with 67 shots on net, 252 hits, 84 blocked shots, 41 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 65 appearances.

Jets' Brandon Tanev: Generates assist Tuesday
Rotowire
Tanev notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.
This was Tanev's second helper in the last three games. The 33-year-old winger looks to be settling in on the Jets' fourth line after filling a similar role -- albeit with more ice time -- during his time with the Kraken this season. He's at 19 points, 89 shots on net, 136 hits, 95 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 66 appearances. Tanev can help fantasy managers chasing hits, and he adds a strong number of blocks for a forward, but his offense is likely to remain fairly limited.

Jets' Vladislav Namestnikov: Puts up assist in loss
Rotowire
Namestnikov notched an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.
Namestnikov has four points over his last four contests. The 32-year-old had endured an eight-game point drought prior to this hot stretch, so it's encouraging to see him get involved in the offense regularly. He remains in a second-line role as he has for much of the campaign. It's allowed him to produce 34 points, 78 shots on net, 74 hits, 42 blocked shots, 34 PIM and a plus-22 rating over 65 appearances.

Jets' Alex Iafallo: Tallies in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Iafallo scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.
Iafallo's second-period goal brought the Jets within one, but they weren't able to pull even. He's scored three times over his last six contests while continuing to play a fourth-line role at even strength. Iafallo hasn't earned a power-play point since Feb. 4 versus the Hurricanes. Overall, he's at 11 goals, 23 points, 85 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating over 69 appearances, serving as an effective defensive forward and depth scorer.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Lights lamp in loss
Rotowire
Ehlers scored a goal on four shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.
Ehlers has four goals and three assists over his last eight outings, and he's logged at least two shots on net in each of those contests. The winger is having an excellent campaign with 22 goals, 58 points, 156 shots on net and a plus-17 rating through 60 appearances. He's six points back of matching his career-best season in 2016-17, when he logged 64 points. Despite his success, it's unlikely he'll have enough time to get to the 30-goal mark for the first time.

Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Rare poor performance
Rotowire
Hellebuyck stopped 16 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Hellebuyck had already given up three goals by the end of the first period, but he stayed in for the whole game. He's only 3-3-1 over seven appearances in March, but this was just the third time he's allowed more than one goal. The rare misstep dropped him to 39-10-3 with a 2.05 GAA and a .924 save percentage over 53 outings this season. Hellebuyck's next chance to go for win No. 40 is Thursday in Edmonton.
Hellebuyck will guard the road goal against Vancouver on Tuesday, according to Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.
Hellebuyck made 23 saves in a 6-1 win over the Canucks on Jan. 14. He has a 39-9-3 record with six shutouts, a 1.99 GAA and a .927 save percentage through 52 appearances this season. Vancouver sits 23rd in the league with 2.73 goals per game in 2024-25.
Barron posted an assist in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Barron has a goal and an assist over his last two games after going six contests without a point following his return from an upper-body injury. The 26-year-old appears to have a solid role on the fourth line for now. He's up to 10 points, 73 shots on net, 98 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 60 appearances, so he's not much of a factor for fantasy managers.

Jets' Vladislav Namestnikov: Collects pair of helpers
Rotowire
Namestnikov notched two assists, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Namestnikov earned his first multi-point effort since Feb. 1 versus the Capitals. The 32-year-old center had been cold on offense recently with just one goal over his previous 10 outings. He helped out on goals by Cole Perfetti and Dylan Samberg in this game. Namestnikov is up to 33 points, 78 shots on net, 71 hits, 42 blocked shots, 34 PIM and a plus-21 rating over 64 appearances this season.

Jets' Kyle Connor: Ties game Sunday
Rotowire
Connor scored a goal on three shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Connor tallied at 11:42 of the second period, tying the game at 2-2. His goal ultimately forced overtime, where Dylan Samberg was the unlikely hero for the game-winner. Connor is once again on fire to begin March, racking up five goals and seven assists over eight contests this month. The 28-year-old winger has 36 goals, 85 points, 221 shots on net, 40 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating over 68 appearances.

Jets' Dylan Samberg: Goal, assist in comeback win
Rotowire
Samberg scored a goal on five shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Samberg set up Cole Perfetti to get the Jets on the board late in the first period. In overtime, Perfetti returned the favor to allow Samberg to score the game-winning goal, the second game-winner of his career. The 26-year-old Samberg has four points over his last five outings and continues to look sharp defensively in a second-pairing role. He's at six goals, 11 assists, 73 shots on net, 88 blocked shots, 44 hits and a plus-32 rating over 46 appearances this season. He has yet to hit the 20-point mark in any season of his career, but he could do so in 2024-25 if he keeps his recent momentum up over the next few weeks.

Jets' Cole Perfetti: Pair of points in overtime win
Rotowire
Perfetti scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist, added two PIM, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Perfetti got the Jets on the board late in the first period, and that shifted the momentum in their favor. In overtime, Perfetti was able to set up Dylan Samberg for the game-winning goal. This gave Perfetti five points over his last five games, a stretch that has seen him get back on track after going four contests without a point. The 23-year-old winger is at 14 goals, 42 points, 117 shots on net, 59 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-19 rating over 68 appearances in a second-line role.

Jets' Connor Hellebuyck: Yields one goal while filling in
Rotowire
Hellebuyck stopped five of six shots in relief of Eric Comrie in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Hellebuyck played 10:10 during the first period while Comrie was being examined following the concussion spotter's call to take him out of the game. Hellebuyck gave up a goal in that stretch, but the Jets' comeback win got him off the hook, and Comrie ended up getting credit for the victory since he was able to finish out the contest. Hellebuyck remains at 39-9-3 with a 1.99 GAA and a .927 save percentage over 52 appearances this season. His next chance to go for win No. 40 is likely to be Tuesday in Vancouver.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Gets overtime win Sunday
Rotowire
Comrie stopped 14 of 15 shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kraken.
Comrie didn't play the full game -- he was pulled by the concussion spotter during the first period, but he was ultimately cleared to return to the ice. Connor Hellebuyck allowed a goal on six shots while Comrie was getting checked out, and while the Jets struggled in the first period, they buckled down to get the win in overtime. Comrie has won four of his last five outings, allowing a total of seven goals in those games. He's now at an 8-8-1 record with a 2.39 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 17 appearances. The 29-year-old typically doesn't see enough of a workload to be on fantasy rosters, but he can be streamed pretty much any time he's tabbed to start. The Jets don't have any back-to-back sets over the next week, so it's unclear when his next game action will be.
Comrie is expected to guard the road goal against the Kraken on Sunday, according to Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.
Comrie occupied the starter's crease during Sunday's morning skate and was the first goaltender off the ice. He has won four of his last five outings, surrendering only eight goals on 128 shots. He has a 7-8-1 record with one shutout, a 2.46 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 16 appearances this season. Seattle is tied for 14th in the league with 2.99 goals per game in 2024-25.
